Jehovah is viewed by Gnostics as fundamentally evil, jealous, rigid, lacking in compassion and prone to genocide.
They inspire me to do stuff. Three years ago, I made a set of animated raytraced mouse cursors for a girl. (Only sorta programming related, due to POV Ray, but still...) Then a year ago, I wrote an ASCII slideshow editor/player for a birthday card for a girl. (Definitely not programming related
Now I''m being motivated to write down my philosophies and such, because of motivation derived from a girl''s interest in them. All in all, they''ve aided more than hindered.
Most of the greatest evils that man has inflicted upon man have come through people feeling quite certain about something which, in fact, was false.

There was a girl I knew (cute too) who wanted to learn Q-Basic, so I gave her a book and offered to tutor her, hehe. It is a shame it didn''t work out between us, it would have been nice to date a girl her ended up liking programming as much as I do.
On a more general note: I find socialization to be a major distraction from my all so important projects, and this vexes me to no end

Having a girlfriend has taken away from my programming...
but , it has resulted in the birth of my very own social life, and not the kind where you get bored and think about programming all day.
I still get to program, and without all of my free time to devote to the computer, I waste less time and accomplish just as much.
girls computers girls computers girls computersgirls/computers are so great.

Yeah, my girlfriend takes me away from my programming quite a bit, but she also inspires me to try to make money off of it. So, it''s a tradeoff I guess.

My sortagf is taking programming classes but is a sign language major, so i try to help her with the programming so its all good, otherwise not much large deal.
i have given up programing for music, and im girlfriendless
Try having a wife AND kid. The only programming time that I get is before I go to work (when they''re both asleep) and after my 2-year-old goes to bed (while my wife is still at work). Unless, of course, I want to hear constant bitching about how I''m "spending more time with the computer" than with her. If I''m lucky I''ll get 2 hours of programming in a day, whereas I used to program at least 6 hours a day. Honestly, it''s really f*ing frustrating sometimes! But still, I wouldn''t give ''em up for anything in the world...not even a top 10 best selling RPG under my name.
Not much. I don''t talk to girls much about programming, most don''t even know.

I am not sure, I don''t really interact with people outside of the workplace, let alone members of the opposite sex.
