Re: [linux-audio-user] LightScribe and linux

Hey Ross,

What is your point in using this quote below? I figure you want to talk about
it and that is why you are posting it :)

"The good Christian should beware of mathematicians, and all those who
make empty prophecies. The danger already exists that the mathematicians
have made a covenant with the devil to darken the spirit and to confine
man in the bonds of Hell."
        --St. Augustine, De Genesi ad Litteram, Book II, xviii, 37

This guy was obviously part of something disguising as Christianity. I am a
Christian not a Catholic or a Protestant. My Christian heritage survived
outside the realm of Catholicism or the people who were Catholics protesting
the Catholics. It really sucks that people peg Christians for the actions of
Catholics or such posing as Christians that are very easily and provably not
following Jesus' commands. If you want to look at the real example look to
Jesus not to St. Whoever from the GSCS (Gimme Some Cash Society). I
personally do not attend a religious building due to the corruption but my
relationship with my Saviour is strong and free. It really deserves to be
lashed out at. I know! There is much to be leaned about Jesus and what he
wants for us all.

E-mail me off list if you want to talk :)
