Hierarchy of the Church
GODS — Creates Free ideas, software and hardware from emptiness and likes to be flattered through prayers. DEMIGODS — Capable of proving that NP problems and P problems are the same (NP=P), writes free software for to prove it and tries to alleviate the bullying nature of GODS by distributing the ideas of GODS freely. They still insist on flattering GODS through prayers and defends the bullying of GODS. SAINTS — Writes Free software using Free software tools. SEMI SAINTS — Use lots of Free software and believes in the church of EMACS but signed NDAs or agreed to proprietary software licenses. PROPHETS — selected by ALMIGHTY (One of the GODS) to reveal his thoughts about humanity. LAITY — does not care about NDAs or proprietary software licenses but runs after BUZZWORDS to show that he is capable of grasping BUZZWORDS. Sinners — Insist on using devil's software, believing that it is of superior quality. Devils — Creating NDAs and proprietory software licenses to entangle humanity in their net
