This recent change to my project:
https://github.com/Ebenezer-group/onwards/commit/a8aaec33d9782f2cd0639335ad6cc90aa98f1fa3
 
seems like it could have been easily discerned by someone
other than myself. It seems my call for ideas on how to
improve my software has been falling on rocky soil.
 
Better late than never is the best that can be said at this
point.

Is there any reason you can think of why anybody would be interested in
spending time looking at your project? (This is a serious question - or
at least a serious attempt at provoking useful thought for you.)
 
Code reviews are generally tedious and boring - a lot of effort with
little direct reward to the reviewer. They can lead to interesting
discussion sometimes, and swapping of ideas and techniques, but mostly
they are very much to the benefit of the code and the person who wrote
it, not for the reviewer.
 
So why would anyone here want to do such work for you, as unpaid work to
benefit your commercial project that no one here has shown any interest
in using?
 
On the occasions when you think a particular bit of code or technique
might be interesting to others or provoke a discussion, you tend to post
that part (and that's a good idea, IMHO). So what is left to persuade
people to do the job of your company for free?

I get the impression that his project isn't serious at all; merely a talking point until the discussion can be steered toward Christian-centric bigotry. No different to Rick C. Hodgin or Terry A. Davis really.

Terry Davis created an amazing 64-bit operating system from scratch.
His own C compiler from scratch. A completely new UI from scratch.
 
His accomplishments exceed yours in terms of raw technical ability.
 
I (Rick C. Hodgin) have worked on a wide array of projects and
interests, outlining them all. My biggest issue is my vision is
vast. I map out very large and complex projects that I can envision
and see all of the parts for, but I am able to do them in terms of
labor hours due to life things.
 
If I had money to hire people to accomplish my goals, or even to work
on them instead of a day job, I would've put Microsoft, Apple and
several others out of business by now. :-)

Yes you do indeed appear to be as deluded as Terry A. Davis was; I suggest you see a doctor and take the medication they will prescribe.

My Inspire CPU ISA design is public on comp.arch. My CAlive compiler
design is public on Google Groups. My Visual FreePro (VFP clone)
project is public on GitHub, as is my Earth Solar System simulation.
 
I've got Jesus, and I've got the wares to back up my claims. :-)
 
BTW, because I have Jesus, people avoid me like the plague. I've gone
to the GIMP forums, LibreOffice, offering to contribute, telling them I
have C/C++ skills. They're all excited at first, and then they look me
up on GitHub or social media, and they see my Christian foundation, and
they've literally stopped talking to me, stopped responding to my
posts, stopped helping me with development assistance.
 
It's hard in this world for a Christian, Leigh. It's a constant uphill
battle against people who tell you to see a doctor and take medication,
or want to kill me as Peter Cheung said, and Mitch Alsup have said.
I've been banned from nearly every forum I've participated in because
at some point something related to Christianity comes up, and people
have no tolerance for it whatsoever.
 
Someday you'll see why we (Christians) did it. And someday, if you
don't come to faith in this world, you'll wish with the greatest
wishing you've ever wished for anything in your existence, that you too
would've gone that way rather than the way you've gone.
 
-----
I say things like "Consider these things, Leigh," but you say no. I
say you are valuable and precious and God loves you, and you say God
doesn't exist. I say I want us to be friends and work together on
projects because we are stronger together than apart, and you call me
names and mock me and tell me to go away.
 
Someday you'll know the truth ... and all these things you've done will
hurt you so much from the inside out.

Replace the first two instances of the word "you" with the word "I" and the final "you" with the word "me" and read it back.
 
Your Christian-centric bigotry is racist, homophobic and misogynist and hurts people of colour, the LGBTQ+ community and women. This is why people don't want to help you with your projects that attempt to aggrandize your fucktarded religion.

Let's examine this.
 
> Your Christian-centric bigotry
 
There is no bigotry. Christians reach out to all people in love. Even
homosexuals from Great Britain. What we teach is what God has told us
about what HE WILL JUDGE one day. The Christian reaches out to prevent
people from being judged. We want everyone to come to repentance, ask
forgiveness, and enter into eternity alive.
 
That is love applied to life, even in the face of such hatred as that
which comes you and others, Leigh.
 
> is racist
 
There is no racism. Jesus opens His arms upon that cross to receive
everybody. What Christians do is congregate together with people who
have common viewpoints founded in Biblical Christianity.
 
Why? Because God's Holy Spirit is real, and so is the anti-Christ
spirit that's running loose in the world everywhere leading people
astray by its false teachings. Christians are instructed to separate
ourselves from the world, and that necessarily means teaching others
why because it's obvious aspect of our lives.
 
We do not do it for racist reasons. We do it for spiritual ones.
 
> homophobic
 
How many times have I reached out to you in friendship, Leigh. I've
told you I like you, that I think we're actually much more alike than
we are unlike fundamentally, and that the issue between is solely one
of the heart.
 
> misogynist
 
Absolute insanity. Did you know that God Himself exalted women when He
let His own begotten Son be born through an earthly woman, a lowly
little probably 13-yr old girl. She was honored to fulfill this role,
and gave her approval of it after being visited by the angel.
 
What is misogynist in our society is this "woman's rights" movement.
It removes women form their exalted place of homemaker, mother,
caregiver, the emotional foundation of the home, and places her out
there among the wolves on a daily basis. She learns to drink and smoke
and cuss and be just as vial as wicked men are.
 
"My body, my choice!" What kind of ridiculousness is that!? This is
the worldly-based God-hating idea of feminism wrapped into the murder
of the most precious thing God's ever given us: new life born through
us, and for us, and for Him.
 
This world is completely anti-woman. Destroying her place of honor
given to her by God so that she was separated from man. Men used to
write poetry about women, longing to be with them for even moments, let
alone the honor of a marriage and a lifetime with kids and all that
entails.
 
God is fully pro-woman. He does separate salvation between men and
women. He also saves everyone alike. And His heart instructs men to
honor their wives, to recognize them as the weaker vessel (on average
more emotional, physically weaker in general, and handicapped by their
cycle -- an ongoing continuous reminder, by the way, of our original
sin from Eve to Adam, and the price of blood paid by Christ at the
cross).
 
You've got it completely backwards, Leigh. Absolute blindness.
 
> hurts people of colour
 
Insanity. God is color blind. He calls out to everyone in this world.
He calls out to the downtrodden and broken, as well as to the rich and
successful.
 
Ignorant Leigh, what you identify as a problem with Christianity is not
a problem with Christianity. It's a problem with SINFUL MAN. PEOPLE
who do not follow the prescripts of God correctly, but instead listen
to that same anti-Christ spirit you're listening to, but in you it
applies toward homosexuality and rebellion and profanity and whatever
else, but with them it takes hold of their interest (a relationship
with Jesus Christ) and perverts it to be something unpalatable,
undesirable by people, something DESIGNED BY THAT EVIL SPIRIT to PUT
PEOPLE OFF to Christianity. And that enemy is very good at what he
does, which is why it takes a very strong Christian to be able to rise
up in this world and overcome that enemy properly.
 
I was taken down by that spirit in the late 2000s after having been
saved in 2004. I was a sincerely devout Christian through May of 2007,
when my family began an unprecedented attack. It hammered us daily
through the end of 2007 into 2008, and I was not strong enough to
prevent the downfall. I got involved in something that I thought at
the time was a good idea, but quickly realized it wasn't. The damage
was done to my family and we're still suffering from the side-effects
and ramifications of that decision now 12+ years later.
 
The Bible records that the enemy spirit we face is of a particular type
of genius that we can't approach him. His mind sees things on the
scale of 10s of thousands of simultaneous thoughts, whereas we can only
think our own thoughts consecutively.
 
It's why we need God to fight our battles for us, because NONE OF US
are able to fight against that enemy alone. We put our faith and trust
in Jesus Christ, and He then fights that enemy for us ... spiritually,
not physically.
 
> the LGBTQ+ community and women
 
The LGBTQ+ community is led by evil spirits. It is that very spirit
that makes people "feel gay."
 
Christians try and teach people this, but that evil spirit is present
in their physical body. It's there continuously piping thoughts,
feelings, emotions, into that physical body so that the person who is
not spiritual, is dead in sin, is only able to respond by their body's
feelings, will THINK they are having THEIR OWN thoughts, feelings, and
emotions, when in fact they're being led by the most raunchy demons out
there, as the homosexual spirit is a very very very powerful evil
spirit.
 
We try and teach people about this battle, but it's not something we
can do because unless the person is willing to seek the truth, they are
otherwise sold out to the flesh and will not hear any of it. It's like
trying to tell an addict that they need to stop taking drugs. They
might even know they need to, but they can't for the same reason, they
have an evil spirit manipulating their flesh, their thoughts, feelings,
emotions, to keep them pinned down in the destructive thing that will
lead to their soul's damnation in Hell.
 
-----
I'm sorry for whatever things have happened to you in your life, Leigh.
Mitch Alsup on the comp.arch channel was abused in church as a young
boy, and he's not in his latter years and has a hatred against
Christianity because of what that evil spirit did to him in his youth.
He cannot separate out the evil spirit attack from the true nature of
Jesus Christ, which is completely separate, entirely love, and is the
very thing which could heal all the hurt.
 
The enemy spirit dwelling within you, Leigh, is making you think all
these things falsely.
 
If you want to be set free from that falseness, ask Jesus to show you
the truth, to come to you in a way YOU can understand and believe. If
you are sincere in asking HE WILL KNOW IT and He will come to you, and
He will make the way for you to be set free. And you won't believe the
change. I speak from experience.

The truth speaks with one voice, Leigh. It doesn't have sides or
angles or scenarios where it's true. It's always true from every
examination.
 
The reason you write "[snip - tl;dr]" is because the evil spirit you're
hosting in your physical body is separating you from the truth that
would set you free from it.
 
You're being used, Leigh.

The reason you write "And Satan invented fossils? Yes?" is because the
evil spirit you're hosting in your physical body is separating you from
the truth that would set you free from it.
 
You're being used, Leigh. That enemy spirit owns you. Are you content
to be literally owned by something that's not you? Something that's
putting all its effort into destroying your eternal soul?

The reason I write "And Satan invented fossils? Yes?" is because it is a sarcastic, satirical and rhetorical question that dismisses your childlike creationist beliefs with little effort on my part. Now fuck off.

Survival of the fittest -- to demonstrate their talents and strengths to
the world?
 
"Even lions go hungry, but those who obey the L-rd lack nothing good."
Psalms 34:10
 
Or to the victor go the spoils:
 
"Furthermore, the Israelites acted on Moses' word and asked the Egyptians
for articles of silver and gold, and for clothing. And the L-RD gave the
people such favor in the sight of the Egyptians that they granted their
request. In this way they plundered the Egyptians." Exodus 12:36,37
 
Maybe because I'm persistent?
 
"Then Yeshua (akaJesus) told his disciples a parable to show them
that they should always pray and not give up. He said: "In a certain
town there was a judge who neither feared G-d nor cared what people
thought. And there was a widow in that town who kept coming to him
with the plea, 'Grant me justice against my adversary.' "For some time
he refused. But finally he said to himself, 'Even though I don't fear G-d
or care what people think, yet because this widow keeps bothering
me, I will see that she gets justice, so that she won't eventually come
and attack me!' " And the L-rd said, "Listen to what the unjust judge
says. And will not G-d bring about justice for his chosen ones, who
cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off? I tell you,
he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when the Son
of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?" Luke 18:1-8
 
Or some other reason that I haven't considered.

I've invested thousands of hours and a large percentage of my
resources into it. It's important to me. Anyway, I don't expect you
to suddenly appreciate it. Maybe in a few years.
