A pink banner at the top reads: "What if programmers' Bibles were actually Bibles written by programmers?" Below it is a large open book with blank pages, on which is written in slanted text: "And lo, Paul did proclaim that Christianity would no longer be backwards compatible with Judaism." The joke recasts a theological transition in software-versioning terms. Votey (aftercomic): a hand-drawn box containing handwritten text that reads, "This generation shall not pass away until all is debugged." - a programmer's parody of a biblical verse.
