Hate to say it but my first reaction is to agree with the Muslims on this one. How can there be 2 Gods? Monotheism or something like Hindu "avatarism" (basically monotheism with more steps) makes more sense. I dont get how you can have 2 Gods if God is omnipotent, omniscient, etc. Maybe I just dont know enuff

I don't know anything about this topic either, but it didn't say anywhere that the gods have to be omnipotent, omniscient and all loving. If they were, it would make sense to say there is at most one. But they don't have to be I guess. Again I don't know anything about this but I assume that gods in polytheistic religions are not that powerful either. The biggest question would be, what is the reason for there to be exactly 2, and not a whole bunch like in Hinduism.

The biggest issue with hardcore Monotheism (Judaism) is that when you have a god that created everything, it means it created evil itself. Dualist religion tackles the issue by stating evil is separate from good.

Zoroastrianism is weird, it is not entirely dualist nor monotheistic. It is more akin to pantheism with a flavor of both dualism and monotheism. There are still lower godly deities (polytheism), but says one is the highest of all and the creator of all that is good (monotheism). But there exists a force that is as powerful as the all powerful and it has taken control of the word (dualism).

Does taoism count?
I dont know much about it, but from the surface it seems pretty dualistic.
Then again it might also be not a religion but a philosophy similar to Buddhism often thought as a religion but actually a philosophy.

I should make the rules more clear. I'm only going to step in to moderate if a thread is actively bad (derailing, shit flinging etc). If the discussion can remain civil then any topic is fine.

I just copied some code from github and fucked around with the css I have no idea what I'm doing. I can delete your thread manually if you direct me to it.

Unless the code is CC-0 you are obliged to link to the originator of source code.

i'm not that denpa but feel that I should point out that emanon is licensed under the GPLv3 so any modifications you make (including CSS) need to be publicly available. you might consider forking the emanon repo on github and making your changes available in your fork, or uploading it to some other git host if you have ethical objections to github.

Agreed

The license says what is written there (didn't read,) but non-obfuscated Javascript or CSS are not considered to be a significant problem to users' freedom, as the source code is plainly visible.

Regarding modified emanon server code, I hear there's a loophole in the GPLv3 license regarding SaaS.

The page you link is about the ethics of using trivial or freedom respecting js on a site. It has nothing to do with the license and has no bearing on interpretation of the license. If any modifications to the source code of a GPLv3 license program are made, the modifications need to be available. I doubt the emanon author will care about minor changes (especially if its just a .css file since thats arguably available albeit in a way that may not satisfy the GPL) but n0 should still make a best effort respect the license.

loophole regarding SaaS
even if there were (there's not), denpachan isn't using emanon as SaaS.

I know

Case closed. Please don't derail the thread. This is a thread about religion so unless you wanna discuss Software Freedom as a religion or the ethics of it it's best you make a thread about this.
