I don't.  There are the little "cult groups" with ALL computers, including the
Ataris.  I know...I've run into a few of the little buggers on local BBS
systems, computers shows I've helped organize, computer shops, and so on.

This claim that there are no "religions" based on the ST is one of the most 
blatant mistakes I've ever read here.
