Friday Fun Quote – Jesus or Doug?

Off-Topic & Miscellaneous

Archived post from 2018. Dynamics GP and the links it points to have changed since; check current documentation before relying on version-specific steps.

I stumbled across something I’d written a long time ago and never published. I think it’s funny enough to warrant a short series of Friday Fun posts. In this world of fake news, I’ve realized that many famous quotes are actually incorrect. I’ve corrected these quotes to properly reflect Dynamics GP or it’s predecessor Great Plains.

Since these incorrect quotes have been repeated enough that everyone believes them, this series will probably offend somebody. That’s fine, just keep it to yourself and be offended quietly. Also, consider these quotes copyrighted, since I made dug them up. If you want them on a t-shirt, mug, or something else, that’s an option for some of the quotes. Check out the store. 

They say you never discuss politics or religion at parties. We’ve done lots of politics, let’s try some religion.

“Go ye into all the word and sell Microsoft Dynamics  GP.” – Doug Burgum  (In an ironic twist this is known as  the “great commission”)

I know, you think Jesus said this, but Jesus wasn’t really into selling stuff. The fact that this quote is called the “great commission” really points to software sales. Doug is now the governor of North Dakota, Jesus didn’t feel the need to run for political office.
