it appears to set your default home page to http://yahhooo.devil.ru/ [3]

You're damn right we need a rational code of morality and ethics. But
not much progress can
be made in that direction while we've still got a majority ranting about
gods, devils, souls, and
absolute morality, and using an ancient book written by ignorant nomads
as a guide.
