What are you implying? That pagans (all sort of) are spoiled? You know that's
a generalization, at best?

I really don't see your point. A guy started thread about theming Ubuntu for
pagans. Your trying to make him look like a fool. Do you have some personal
agenda against it?

If they will make one, why not? Diseases you say? Should we exclude all
non-WASP people from Ubuntu? We should kick out following people:
* Black (D'uh! Black people?)
* Not following your religion/belif (cluess morons)
* Womans (they should cook, clean and gave births, not think)
* Invalids (if they can't walk, they can't follow my steps!)

Man, that was some letter from you. You're sure open minded. And your
attidute can't be more of Ubuntu.
