I found it funny. Especially when I came to one I could understand. :D

I liked the VB one the best.

Hilaaaarious. The comments after were pretty predictable, 90% death threats and 10% angry explanations that their language of choice is the TRUE faith.

I personally think C#'s "description" fits J# more. C# should be:
"C# would be Jehovah witness. It claims to be based on C, but they actually wrote their own set of rules that it is quite similar to J#, and that many theological rules are different. Also, the organization behind C# would love to bang on every door to convert you into their language, regardless of what platform you are on"

Hilarious. The Lisp one is just perfect! (and the Perl as Voodoo too!)

The "If programming languages were cars" is also great: http://www.cs.caltech.edu/~mvanier/hacking/rants/cars.html

PHP is the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile, it's bizarre and hard to handle but everybody still wants to drive it. [from "CosmicJustice" off of digg.com]

This thread has been borderline since it started, but I let it run on for awhile. We don't allow discussions about religion on these forums (please see the Forum Code of Conduct (http://ubuntuforums.org/index.php?page=policy)), so I will close this thread now.
