Ryan, please take your evangelism elsewhere. Unity and religion doesn't exclude one another, but there's also no logical connection between them. There's certainly nothing particularly Christian about it.

Whether you believe in one of the Abrahamic religions, Hinduism, Buddhism or nothing at all, you should be able to use your computer with comfort and freedom. For this to happen, we need to be open to contributors from all different places and walks of life. But even if there were no conflicts between believers in religion, any such discussion would still be disruptive on this mailing list, because it creates noise that has nothing to do with software development.

I would also consider the possibility that people will add your address to their spam filters.

the fact you put it in your signature everytime is already bothering me, and i restrained myself to put satanic or atheistic or whatever stuff in my own, because it would just become confrontationnal, but if you start spaming with messages only about religion (and «facts» disproved by science already) then i would suggest kicking you out of the list entirely, everybody, Mark included, stated clearly and multiple time that it was not the place for this, if you don't get it, you are a troll that need to be taken out…
