Ubuntu in the news: Ubuntu gets God

There are those in the Linux and open source communities who believe
the label "religious devotees" is detrimental to the cause, but the
Rev. Don Parris embraces it.

But Parris is no zealot -- neither in the Linux world nor the
religious one -- and this ordained Baptist minister with the
Charlotte, N.C.-based Matheteuo Christian Fellowship has made it his
mission to spread the good word about free and open source software
(FOSS). The Greek word "Matheteuo" translates to "to make disciples,"
and Parris has extended the moniker to include making other software
users into Linux and open source disciples themselves.

Parris is a longtime user of the Ubuntu Linux distribution and a
contributor to the Freely Project, which is a community of users that
promotes open source software (OSS) in churches across the United
States as a less expensive alternative to the high licensing costs
associated with owning Microsoft Windows. Through the Freely Project,
a cadre of technically savvy Linux users helps churches migrate from
Microsoft Windows to free or less expensive alternatives.
