Holy C is the only CIA safe language.

You have it backwards, it's the only language the CIA truly doesn't want you to program in.

Information directly from the horse mouth

If there is someone that knows how to protect yourself from the glowies, it's the creator of Holy C

HolyC is TempleOS's primary language. Previous to its creation the author had a mental breakdown... this should explain everything quite clearly https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TempleOS

TempleOS was an OS created by a genius programmer named Terry. Also, I very rarely use the word genius, but he was a genius by definition. He was extremely mentally ill, but his brilliance lives on through TempleOS (and HolyC). Check out this Down the Rabbit Hole video about him.

God revealed him self and said so. Maybe a burning bush was involved I don't remember the details.

Rest in peace Terry. Always watch out for people that glow in the dark.
