you are showing that you are not a mature person by using the language
you
used and remaining anonymous. a mature person would say "why do we keep
referring people to the FAQ? can't we just answer their questions?" and
try to understand the responses. your behavior indicates that you are
just
an adolescent who is feeling bitter because he/she feels his/her friends
don't understand him/her.

this is not about being religous twats. i am not religous at all,
however,
whatever religous education i got taught me that, as a Muslim, i am
supposed to respect, not necessarily believe in, but definitely respect,
the books and prophets that came before Islam. hence, it would not
matter if 0.0001 % of the world population were Christians. further,
even if you are an atheist, respecting
the symbols other people regard as holly would not be such an outrageous
proposition. it would be called decency.

no. it would be nice if you could just be a decent person with manners.

you are definitely allowed an opinion of your own. but the audience at
comp.os.msdos.djgpp are not here to enable you to anounymously vent your
frustrutions for not being regarded as the 'cool hacker' but the 'lowly
nerd'.
i started programming in Z-80 assembly when i was 12 and ever since
then, i do not remember anyone calling me a nerd. again, this show that
you need to stop, think,
and post a nonanonymous apology. BTW, do you play Quake on-line and
complain about being killed all the time?

no. he wished something nice. appreciating it does not make you
religous!

and if you only shout from behind masks ... what does that mean?
