Think about it a little more....
A prosperity gospel church is still a church, unless you're referring to WSL as the equivalent of "Linux".
I do not consider those churches to be Christian. Their theology is significantly removed from orthoxy that it's unrecognizable.
But even still, as with WSL, you can find some Christianity in there if you work really hard to find it.
Exhibit 9370 supporting officially renaming the "no true Scotsman" logical fallacy to "no true Christian"
I understand very few of these, except for arch, slack and the bottom row.
How is ope suse and chrome Os related? Are baptist and southern baptist very different?
Northern baptists were decentralized abolitionists, while southern baptists were centralized and pro-slavery.
Arch is the denomination that is super proud of itself, despite being messed up for most people. OpenSuse is Baptist due to it's general reliability and flexibility. ChromeOS is Southern Baptist because it's barely recognizable as Linux.
I've heard mostly bad things about southern baptists, so I understand why the chrome os. I'm unsure of the relations of baptists and southern baptists.
Evangelicals are typically traditional, very conservative, and proud. I thats a play on the arch user of doing everything in the command line and letting everyone know.
Orthodox is has some nuonsed diffrences to Catholic, but is under a different hierarchy. Not sure how that relates to slackware
The bottem row are all non Christian, so they are aptly not linux.
Orthodox is Slackware because it's the oldest Christian denomination and changes very slowly.
Wait... Orthodox is the oldest? The Catholic rhetoric is that they are the oldest denomination. I feel bamboozled!
Orthodox
I'm sure the Catholics would disagree with me, and that's fine with me. But personally I would say the Orthodox are the oldest continuous movement of Christianity. Not only do they historically beat out the Romans by a few decades, but also they have maintained a far more consistent liturgy over the millennia. The Catholics have had a a good handful of major liturgical changes that I would say constitute a few major breaks in historical consistency.
That's not a criticism from me. I'm Anglican.
Well dang! From what I can tell, you're right. Now I wanna check out an Orthodox church xD
Orthodox
The Orthodox communion is having a bit of a revival right now. Which happens on occasion for them, because they are really misunderstood in the West.
For example, in the 2000s they had a brief boom period where "new-agey" type people were attracted to the mystical aspects of the church. I think that boom was short lived because those people really just wanted spiritual consumerism, and, as far as Christian denominations go, Orthodoxy is hard work. It's not for beginners. If you aren't born into it then it's really hard to break in. (By my understanding is that if you do the hard work the community and spiritual benefits are really meaningful.)
Unfortunately, today their current boom (if it's still going on, this information is a few years old now) is coming from Proud boys-type people. They were interested it it because it's seen as adequately homophobic and sexist for them. My guess is that their interest was ultimately short lived as well because they aren't going to be interested in doing the work any more than the Live-Laugh-Love crowd was.
If I go distro->religion then I guess I'm Orthodox.
If I go religion->distro then I guess I need to start using a TI graphing calculator.
I disagree. You have MacOS as "Spiritual but not Religious".
MacOS is Hillsong.
Also, many of these are not Christian, and many of these are not Linux.
I was really proud of a lot of these jokes by the way. Many are multi-layered.
Hannah Montana Linux is still the goat
FreeBSD is definitely Satanism
Wait, ChromeOS was explicitly created to support the institution of chattel slavery? Who knew?!
Presbyterian Biker ? (Bazzite)
Where does that put Judaism? Just a bare Linux kernel without the rest of the OS?
Judaism is Unix.
Nah Unix should be Zoroastrianism and Judaism should be Minix
That would imply Judaism copied Zoroastrianism's homework. Since they came around the same time, it would be something else. Zoroastrianism should be AmigaOS. Judaism should be Unix. Would islam be Solaris? Would Wahhabism be Solaris post oracle?
To be fair Judaism did for the most part copy Zoroastrianisms homework
I guess. But it feels very different from Judaism as best as I can tell. And Zoroastrianism is still seperate from the big 3 monotheistic religions.
The guy is really just not right about that. There was a lot of cultural mixing going around back in the early iron age, but Judaism borrowed much more from the Egyptians, Babylonians, and the Greeks than they did the Persians. And it also has a lot of very unique features as well.
Yes there was also cultural exchange with the Persians that found it's way into Judaism, but it's just not correct to say it's a copy.
What would Islam be? Gnu Herd?
Edit: I made the joke in a different comment but Islam would be Solaris and Wahhabism would be post oracle Solaris.
Slackware really should be Church of the Subgenius.
I have to find my damn calculator from 20 years ago?
How do I know this isn't proganda from Big Christianity?
guess this chart makes me metheodist tho
Where would you put Pop!_OS?
Also, thereβs a wide spectrum of Lutherans and they often donβt get along.
I was unaware that the CoC would be cool enough to have motorcyclists.
First up: FreeBSD is NOT a Linux distribution, and secondly, is NetBSD so small that it is nowhere to be found?
Berkeley software distribution β Linux (or gnu+Linux, which is btw not true for all distros.)
Spot on as a FreeBSD and macOS user but those are UNIX rather than Linux (though I use Alpine Linux pretty heavily too).
FreeBSD and macOS user but those are UNIX rather than Linux
Yes, and the meme is which branch of christianity the OS is the equivalent of.
"Atheism" and "Spiritual but not religious" are not braches of christianity
βAtheismβ and βSpiritual but not religiousβ are not braches of christianity
Is the joke really that complicated?
I mean, he didn't get it, and to me that's one of the easier ones... Unless you mean the devil logo for free bsd
Also, yeah, the target audience knows the OSes better than the denominations, that's why we don't understand how they correlate.
Maybe write an explanation?
ok but linux mint was my first distro and i did grow up methodist through my parents
Interesting. I use Mint. I'm not a Methodist.
My wife on the other hand is a Methodist lay speaker so...
Is CachyOS Unitarian Universalist? Or watching church on TV on Sunday morning?
Running Fedora, was raised Presbyterian. π€―
This just makes me feel like a heretic because it doesn't line up
Also OP, ChromeOS is moving from Gentoo to android. What does that make it now?
Funnily enough, this leads to more android x86 development.
Islam is Android
Android is very technically Linux. So it can't be Islam.
Islam is still an Abrahamic religion, but doesn't recognize Jesus as more than a prophet. So, NetBSD.
I'll take being a calculator, it really did resolve my main issues with debian
I guess I fall between Arch and openSUSE (so rolling release), that is what you get when you are born in a small country, all the way in the back waters, you make things work in anyway you can.
As a catholic I must agree with the chart
