    People often complain about the humanities requirements for CS degrees, and now the world is run by tech executives who don’t have a clue.

      They do have a clue, what's missing is any sort of belief in the value of ethics.

        Ethics are irrelevant. They lack a believe in God and without God nothing but evil and chaos may exist.

          Surely if you're a Christian then you also think evil and chaos couldn't exist without a god? Seems odd to single out everything else.

              So poisoned by tribalism you can't imagine anyone could be different than the caricature you see on tv.

              Allah Akbar means God is good. Muslims pray 5 times a day. You want me to hate Muslims? Who am I to hate any of God's children. I don't hate anyone not Muslims nor Jews, nor Hindus nor satanists nor atheists. God is bigger than hate. God is love. I am sorry you don't knowthat and I hope you find out becauae you are missing something wonderful friend. Sorry for previous commment I was angry, mostly misdirected from sadness not ur fault im just not having a good time rn.
