Agile really scratched that "cult" (weird names, daily rituals, special roles, people who don't do it are either ignorant or evil) part of the brain that programmers are susceptible to, the part that starts so many flamewars over emacs versus vi or top-posting versus bottom-posting. It's as if people forgot that programming existed before Agile came along.

This is actually brilliant. Fantastic way to put it. Especially the part that people who don't do it must be some kind of outcast: ignorant, evil, pathological...
