emesene-1.0.1-3.fc{9,10}

Just built package of emesene 1.0.1 for rawhide and F9. This update aims the changes made my new MSN(R) protocol which rejects update of nickname. The new rpm should be available in rawhide now and on F9 updates repo in days.

Triaged some bugs and closed some bugs that without response from reporter when I have requested further info long ago. Bugs sometimes disappeared during updated source releases or patches done originally not for fixing that.

Home ADSL has been connected since this morning. Everything's alright atm, with no heavy downloader (seems) in the house now. Paid EUR$15 by paypal for an unlock credit on my Huawei E220 usb hsdpa wireless modem. After paying such amount, the unlocking software casts the modem to be able to use in different mobile internet providers rather than just V Corp. For no contract plans they are somehow expensive, though I just need might be 1 full work day of remote internet access every week only. I will test if it works with VPN to office on tomorrow.

Religion. Personally I believe there are some higher forces above human, but I still haven't been persuraded by any religious organization that their top worshipee(s) is/are equivalent to my thoughts of 'higher forces'. I would simpler express with Lao Tsu's Tao Te Ching:

'The Tao that can be told of
Is not the Absolute Tao;
The Names that can be given
Are not Absolute Names.'

(Could we not only listen to others' about the universe, but sense and feel and experience by ourselves. Nothing is real even mind is made up by external stimulation since in placenta.)

I'd welcome someone discuss any religious beliefs in *logical* aspects. Rational thinking distinguishes us from other animals. It's like building a house: If the logical base doesn't stand up, any knowledge construction on top of that is not possible to be correct.

There are full of unreasonable doctrines exists even in a few popular religions on the Earth. I highly doubt the true purpose of teaching people about worshipping before explaining to them *why* they should, except *the teacher*'s expectations to satisfaction of leader power and sustaining incomes.

Good on governments in many countries define religious organizations as *
non-profit organization* but not something with shinning halo. They are more like a companies with less stakeholders and more unpaid workers.
