Warren Buffett "Agnostic," Bill Gates Rejects Sermon On The Mount, Not "Huge Believer

In his interview with Charlie Rose on Public TV, Bill Gates has said he is "doubly blessed" to have worked at Microsoft and now at his Foundation. But, "doubly blessed" by whom? By what? What is the religion of Bill Gates? What is the religion of Warren Buffett?

Re: Warren Buffet "Agnostic," Bill Gates Rejects Sermon On The Mount, Not "Huge Believer" In "Specific Elements" Of Christianity

Big shocker! Man who is the epitome of the Darwinian corporate capitalist rejects Christianity. Surprise, surprise surprise! Just think what a Christian worldview of business and economics would have done for Microsoft and where the Gates foundation money would be going instead of to Infanticide, Inc. as it is now.

I believe it was Martin Luther, when asked by a cobbler what he could do in his work to express his new found faith, replied "make better shoes." Oh, if only Bill Gates had heard that message before foisting upon the public schlock like Windows NT or 98 or... well the list goes on and on.

OK, call me a nitpicker, but would someone please fix the spelling of Buffett's name in the article, it's got two "t"'s at the end. Poor research by the author.

No -- actually just a typo, a mistake, the kind of thing that happens in a fallen world. John Lofton, Editor.

I found this here:

http://cleanjokeoftheday.com/jokes-spellingchequer.html

Eye have a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.
Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write.
It shows me strait a weigh.
As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
and eye can put the error rite.
Its rare lea ever wrong.
Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect awl the weigh
My chequer tolled me sew.

No. Unfortunately, written on a Windows XP OS, which is considerably more stable than the hideous Windows 98, though also harder to make do some elementary functions. The thought of being forced to use Windows Millenium, NT, etc. simply makes me shudder at the slightest thought.

I always called ME "Malware Edition"

FWIW, I just got a copy of Vista Beta I may install today.

It looks like an improvement.

Still no where near the quality of a Mac though.

One time is a typo. Throughout the article is poor research. Calling it a typo is a poor excuse.
