    Why does Ubuntu appear to support only Christianity, in its editions?

    Well, as the question states, I would like to know why Christianity, is the only religion supported. I would like to see, perhaps, Buddhism, maybe some others. You get the idea, but that is the question.

    Anyone can make such a version. There is a Muslim Edition as well, and a Satanic Edition (I used to use Ubuntu SE).

    I know there was talk or projects of others.

    Normally we don't move threads from the OPP to Recurring Discussions, but all the other such threads are here.

    LaRoza used the SE edition, I would have never guessed.

    In the UF forum interviews, you can see a screenshot of my use of it (although I don't use any of those setups anymore, I use xmonad)

    UCE is not officially supported by Canonical. It was created by a distinct community to fill a niche.

    Ugh, the most popular form (and most forms) of Satanism has (have) little to do with the Christian concept of Satan. I'll just stick with the atheist version.

    Maybe other religions realise that adding Bible/Koran study apps and a new wallpaper, esc doesn't constitute a new derivative?

    I'm going to create an Ubuntu Luddite edition, it will be a blank CDR which I will then smash with a hammer.

    Surely that would have to be closed source.
