Avism: the way forward

1 April 2008 By Avinash Meetoo 24 Comments

I’ve observed that many of you have lost your sense of direction. This is so comprehensible as current political systems (and this includes religion IMHO) have not adapted to the real world of blogs and Facebook and, consequently, you, as a technology-freak, are feeling lost.

You don’t have to be alone anymore.

On this very auspicious day, I am launching my new religion: Avism.

The image seen above is the official logo of this new religion. In essence, it has its roots in Technology (I used Gimp to render that image), in Football (obviously) and also in Me (hence the name). Avism is the first post-modern religion: it is a best-of of everything except existing political parties and existing religions…

Naturally, I am quitting my job at the University of Mauritius as I feel I’ll need all my energy to serve you as your light-bearer.

By the way, I will be known as from now as “The Perfect (and So Intelligent) Grand Guru Who Likes To Party and Is A Great Computer Scientist and Likes To Koze KK”.

    To David:

    Thanks for this! Reach out and touch faith :-)

    To Justin:

    Bizarre comment. Are you doubting my CS prowess?

    To the rest:

    Congrats for not falling into that extremely (too?) wide trap.

    Hmmh I’m vegetarian on 1st April so I won’t eat fish :-)

    But “koze KK ” is an expression that is a bit too strong for my sensible ears :-)

  15. Ketwaroo D. Yaasir says

    “koze KK” is just a quickish way that the stragglers and sycophants have of disposing of concepts that their little minds cannot, or simply do not want to comprehend.

    Just because something is said on april 1st doesn’t mean it’s not possible.

  16. Chouaibe says

    4 April 2008 at 17:01

    LOL
    ….but it’s an incredible idea reachable though.
    btw guys, have you checked on BBC Uk about the “Second World” regrouping around 24 countries. Do check it out and share your thoughts about it.
