    Topic for #abiword is Pope to give first sermon on IRC - Tune into irc.vatican.it#pope tonight 7 p.m. GMT | Diet Coke is for sissies

    Religious beliefs are the cause for millions of deaths along the history
    of human kind.

    Today, still a lot of people kill and destroy in name of this god or
    that one, and that plays a huge part of the reasons I'm quite agnostic
    (but not arrogant enough to be atheistic).

    The christian church, for one hand, has enough propaganda already.

    Meanwhile, there is channel #abiwordprocessor where the topic is:
      Welcome to AbiWord | alternate channel for the non religious folk

    TIA, rms

    ps: I wouldn't have minded if it was something like:
    Topic for #abiword is Christian Pope to give first sermon on IRC - Check
    www.news.site for more info | Diet Coke is for sissies

    Because _that_ would be news, instead of religious propaganda, even if
    off-topic and not particularly funny (unlike the diet coke remark ;)).
