Coldbox is only for theists?

2 points by rnirnber ↗ HN
I noticed coldbox put bible verses and strong theist (christian, to be specific) messages in their readme.md file. Does anyone else think this is disgusting and a smack in the face to everything that OSS culture has accomplished?

It's their project, they can do as they want. There is nothing preventing non Christians from using it. There is also nothing stopping you from forking it to be secular-coldbox, or whatever you like.

Having said that, who in their right mind is still using cold fusion? It's as old as the bible.

Certainly not me. I abandoned a project, and the new guy coming in wants to abandon the current solution and use coldbox running on lucee. I've given my advice that it's too risky/too niche, but we'll see what happens.

Wow. A legacy project I could kind of understand. But it takes a special brand of idiot to be creating new cold fusion projects in 2016.
