Ok, if you haven’t been to or at least heard of The Curt Jester blog (rss), WHERE have you been?!?!?

Jeff Miller, a.k.a. the Curt Jester, is (obviously) the owner of this fantastic blog. If you’re looking for “Punditry, Prayer, Parody, Polemics, Puns from a Papist Perspective“, this is THE place to go. Jeff combines fun and humor (and sometimes, a touch of sarcasm) with everyday Catholic living and the teachings of the Catholic Church, while preserving the orthodoxy and respect due to the topics discussed.

The latest post (as at the time when I was typing this) on the blog titled “If the Catholic Church was a programming language” is simply outstanding! Jeff makes comparisons between the Catholic Church and various programming languages. As a programmer myself, this post was very much close to heart. I particularly love this piece of sample code:

Here is a sample “Hello World” program in C††

faith()
{
works()
{
print(“Let there be light ” ) ;
}
}

After all “Let there be light” was the original Hello World program by the Divine Programmer. Every C†† requires a “faith” method which is the main entry point to the program. Remember faith() without works() and your code is dead.

What can I say? Jeff, you’re a genius!

To the rest of you, hop on over to The Curt Jester blog NOW!!!
