“And guess what software Osama Bin Laden uses on his laptop?
If you guessed it was Linux you would be 100% right. Osama uses Linux because he knows designed to counterfit DVDs, curcumventing the Digital Millenium Copyright Act, and defraud companies like Disney.”

And you know this how. Because you’re good buds with him? Besides, your grammar here isn’t even right. If you’re going to so eloquently proclaim to the entire population of the Earth that you claim to have the inside scoop on a conspiracy bigger than the world has ever known, make sure that your grammar is correct.

“Next time somebody asks you how Al Queda agents pay for their rifles and rocket launchers, you can tell them that foreign hackers make software called Linux which helps them steal from Americans.”

Hey, fax me some Linux. I need to go trade it in for some heat-seeking missiles.

“Fortunately Microsoft have prepared a great deal of information to help computer users get away from this menace.”

Yep, it’s called Windows Vista, the most costly mistake in the entire recorded history of this planet, enough to drive any conscious, reasoning human being to use Linux. Additionally, the great deal of information that M$ have provided was done by 3rd-party companies that were paid to give the results that were produced. No one (besides you, I guess) believes their self-deceiving crap. Do one search on the Internet for Linux (which, judging by the astounding quality of your thoughts, I can tell that you didn’t do), you’d see how full of pure crap they are.

“If one of your friends is using Linux or may be tempted to try it show them this article.”

And that will accomplish what? Them laughing at what a dolt you are?

“Explain that Linux is a genuine threat and that by using it they may be opening their computer to Chinese hackers.”

Calling all Chinese hackers. Calling all Chinese hackers. Please, if you have information that the rest of the planet doesn’t have that makes machines running Linux so easily hackable as to make them into public property, let the rest of us know. As far as the true tests and studies prove, Linux security runs circles around Windows, and has for at least a decade.

“If you see a company using Linux, it may be that they have not paid for this software.”

Congratulations, you realized that ‘free’ means that they don’t pay for it, huh? Anyone have a gold star for this person?

“Report them to the Business Software Alliance who have the legal authority to inspect any company’s computers for illegal programs like Linux.”

This has to be the most baffling statement in this entire “article.” Little newsflash: If Linux were illegal, companies like NOVELL would not be buying distributions. And surely ORACLE would not be considering doing the same. Linux is not illegal. Although it should be illegal for people to be allowed to drive with such minimal brainpower as you have.

“Finally, remember to include Linux users in your prayers tonight.”

Yep, pray that they will help spread Linux awareness so that people like you do not embarrass themsleves online in front of thousands and thousands of people.

“…. the Bible teaches that God can make any sinner repent.

Actually, it doesn’t. Moral agency would be completely destroyed if that were the case. If you study the Bible at all, you will see that it is Satan who seeks to take away this agency. So… you are ass-backwards, once again.

Alrighty, I’m done picking. Reading stuff like that just makes it totally and completely obvious that you cannot just believe everything you read online. People say that I’m paranoid. Believe me, just because you’re not paranoid doesn’t mean that they’re not out to get you. Anyway, before you swallow pure feces like what this person has written, do at very least 48.3 seconds of research so that you don’t beg for someone to come and kick your ass. Seriously, learn to use your brain matter for something besides filling the void between your ears and behind your eyeballs. A simple thought process that would address this issue is as follows:

You ask yourself, “I wonder if this is true.” You open Google and do a few minutes’ worth of research. You come to your own conclusion by thinking and reasoning and support your conclusion with well-known facts.

See how simple of a process that is? Think for yourself before you just automatically equate all sensory input with absolute truth.

OK, I have got to wrap this up before my bewilderment gets the best of me.
