Unix time is explicitly anti-Christian!

>The copyright on the official BSD Daemon images is owned by Marshall Kirk McKusick, a very early BSD developer who worked with Bill Joy. McKusick has freely licensed the mascot for individual "personal use within the bounds of good taste (an example of bad taste was a picture of the BSD Daemon blowtorching a Solaris logo)."[ Any use requires both a copyright notice and attribution.

Blowtorching a Solaris logo sounds like it's in good taste to me! Just not blowing it without a torch.

Kirk didn't invent Unix time, though; it predates his involvement in Unix by several years.
