> it is not dangerous in knowledgeable hands

For crying out loud, this is patently false.

C isn't as dangerous if you really know what you're doing and you never make mistakes. I would bet fewer people know what they're doing than think they know what they're doing, and the set of people who never make mistakes is entirely empty.

Well you know..that's just like your opinion man. Opting out of this site at this point. A bunch of 6-12 year idiots (recognizably) telling people what they think they know that they don't know. It's silly recursive.

You're right, my reply was unnecessarily harsh. I apologize.
