Fair enough.

Nonethless i'm still / always surprised to see religion in context of IT/programming.

It is only interesting that someone comes to comment about morals for a text written almost 3000 years ago..

Have you actually ready it?

I don't think someone in OP's shoes even has to read it, they just have to have a fair and open mind and understand that it'a bunch of letters, poems, stories all written by different people at different points in time.

I think it would help if such person after understanding that, did read it. Of course there is some stuff that doesn't make sense in today's world, but there is a lot that still does.

As for OP's other arguement about being hypocrites, that's a rather poor one. Hypocrisy isn't unique. Everyone is human, and no matter their religious affiliation or lack thereof, are just as susceptible to "being a dick".
