Don't confuse religion and philosophy. One is a dynamic const,
the other is purely dynamic ;-)
I take it from your story, that one could say the philosophy of

That sounds like a great philosophy! And it certainly fits with
my understanding of the capabilities of D, and perhaps is
indicative of the spirit in which D came about ;-)
