Not so "dead serious": As an alternative to the "Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster" the "Church of Lambda" could be founded (see https://www.irs.gov/charities-non-profits/churches-religious...). To find believers and members should not be a problem, one might think.
Do you find the idea of funding Common Lisp Open Source abhorrent? Because that is the primary focus of my work and my life.
Do you think this would have more intrinsic value if someone else promoted it for me? And I have never understood the hate against relevant self-promotion. Why don't you want value creators to promote their work themselves?
I won't be donating, since I don't believe that what needs to change in software development is as simple as a choice of programming language--I'm sure you've heard that one before. Best of luck with your endeavors regardless!

> Common Lisp is the best programming language in the world!
Why? What an absurd, arrogant, misinformed and misguided claim.
