If you're Christian, you know about and recite the Lord's Prayer. Well, here is a version of that prayer translated into computer terminology. It's quite hilarious and comes from John Barry in 1993. It goes like this:
(funny that it comes from the ACM Review web site!)
The Computer Person’s Prayer
Our program, who art in Memory,
Hello be thy name.
Thy Operating System come,
thy commands be done,
at the Printer as they are on the Screen.
Give us this day our daily data,
and forgive us our I/O Errors as we forgive those whose Logic Circuits are faulty.
Lead us not into Frustration,
and deliver us from Power Surges.
For thine is the Algorithm,
The Application,
and the Solution,
looping forever and ever.
Return.
On Technorati: computer, Christianity
