I had just finished reading Virtual Gipsy's post titled "VMware as religion" when my RSS reader featured a referential post from VM/ETC's Rich titled "vTheology: the study of virtualization as religion."
While I appreciated the humor surrounding the topic, I try never to mix friends politics, and religion* so I'll not wade into the deep end on this one except to suggest what my title asks:
If virtualization is a religion, does that make cloud a cult?
If so, to whom do I send my tidings? Who is the Cardinal of the Cloud? The Pope of PaaS? The Shaman of Service?
...and where's my
phenobarbital, vodka and purple cape?

*...and truth be told, I'm not feeling particularly witty this morning.
