Several years ago they moved from a cartoony demon logo to a more abstract red-sphere-with-two-cones logo precisely to avoid the overtones of the old image. As a fellow Christian, I figured I'd give you the heads up so that you're not lying.

I do agree with you about the name "gimp" and I hope you raise it - it should also be changed.

It does not change the fact that freebsd is under systemic daemon-ism. It's time for a change.

There’s no reason it should be changed. Feel free to name your own projects whatever you like, but don’t impose your tyranny on other people as if it’s the only way to be a healthy and respectful person.
