I don't think anyone will riducule you. I am a Christian and won't do  
that, no worries. If you do publish anything that goes against the bible  
though, don't expect any help from me.
But making fun of you or being 'mean' in any other way is never the right  
thing to do.

As I said, no. But please consider this: You say all ways lead to the same  
God. Jesus said He is the only way to God. So either He is right, and He  
is the only way, or it is as you believe: all ways lead to God. These  
ideas contradict each other, so not both can be true. I think that's worth  
looking into, just to find the truth.

You don't have to believe in God. You can believe whatever you want, and I  
for sure won't tell you otherwise. Make sure what you believe is true  
first.
And again, Kasper's wish is not binding at all. You can use TYPO3 for  
whatever you wish.
