You calling the conventions a "religion" neither invalidates nor diminishes
the value of the official conventions.

Your pitch for unconventional conventions violates the spirit and purpose 
of the conventions, which is to provide a common basis for the community 
to communicate their source code.

Your overtly anti-social and self-aggrandizing approach is not suitable 
for playing nicely with others. Be less snarky about the choice to go with 
the industry standards, please. I know it makes you feel all important and 
powerful and all, but it doesn't serve those wishing to learn how best to 
be *professional* Java programmers.
