Emacs was originally an extensible text editor written by Richard Stallman, but it became a way of life
and a religion. To join the Church of Emacs, you need only pronounce the Confession of the Faith:

    There is no system but GNU, and Linux is one of its kernels.

If you become an expert user of GNU/Linux, you can celebrate that with our ceremony, the Foobar
Mitzvah, in which you chant a portion of our sacred scriptures — that is to say, the source code of the
system. In the Church of Emacs we have put an end to the priesthood of technology: everyone is free to
read our sacred scriptures.
