If you expect your languages to have ->0<- errors, then you have unrealistic expectations. PHP is listing only 373 issues listed, Ruby and Python both have thousands! Sure PHP may not be a perfectly crafted language, it has its downsides, but, it works. Stop trying to steer people away with these misguided posts. This is the internet, you can find justification for nearly anything when you do not provide a proper context for your arguments, in this case it would need to be a chart showing bug count vs other languages.

This is such a misguided post. There are 3873 open bugs at http://bugs.python.org/

I'm guessing no one should use Python either?

wow, so a large open source language that is used on many different platforms has bugs?

I can also point to all of the recent security flaws found in Ruby..
