History is also full of examples of people of low morality putting other people in gas chambers, committing baby rape, spreading deadly venereal”

Yes and we have a mechanism in place to deal with people like such, they are called criminal laws. These are laws that are designed to prevent people from infringing on other people rights and\or well being.

And although Hitler, who used the gas chambers to commit genocide, may have been a-theistic, it appears that the German people still possessed a sense of God being on there side in their great struggle. Which enable them to commit all kinds of atrocities, since it was for the greater good.

But you still have not addressed my main question of what constitutes high or low moral character. What you have given are examples of criminal deviate behavior. And although one could say that such persons probably do not have much moral character, and I would tend to agree with you. It does not establish that one moral code as opposed to another, leads to criminal deviate behavior.

So what does constitute high moral character? Is that something that only those who follow the bible to the letter can possess, and that those who dissent from the collective are bound to be morally inferior? That would seem to follow the same logic that the mulsims put forth that all those who do not follow the koran are morally inferior. Do you, as I assume you do not follow the teachings of the koran, feel that you are morally inferior?

”Kerberos is a software package which is a copyright of CMU.”

Actually it is an authentication protocol that was developed at MIT. CMU may have a copyrighted program of the same name, as I believe the MIT protocol is public domain. If not, CMU may have a legal problem.

Well, while I work on defining "low moral character,"
you can work on "criminal deviate behavior." While work-
ing on that, you may also wish to provide some evidence
of you accusation that Germans viewed Jews being herded
into gas chambers as being the "will of God." Further,
maybe you can explain who's will was responsible for Soviet
citizens being taken away from their homes in the middle
of night and shepharded into boxcars on their way to
Siberian death camps.

No, I do not feel morally inferior because I do not obey
the Koran, even while I was in Turkey last May. Would you
feel morally inferior if you were in the Amazon rain forest
and a group of head-hunters invited you to a banquet, and
you refused, knowing that they would be serving human
flesh?

P.S. according to my copy of "K-client" MIT held the copy-
right until 1997.
