-The goal of TempleOS is to provide an ideal environment for recreational programming and not imitate $FG,2$Linux$FG$.  TempleOS is orders of magnitude simpler than $FG,2$Linux$FG$ to better fulfill the promise of $FG,2$open source$FG$.  The vision for TempleOS is a 64-bit, souped-up, multitasking, multicore $FG,2$Commodore 64$FG$ with a $FG,2$C+$FG$ shell instead of $FG,2$BASIC$FG$ that runs $FG,4$$TX+HTML,"x86_64","http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amd64#AMD64"$$FG$ code.

-TempleOS holds no standards sacred -- everything is freshly designed from scratch.  This is not a 1970's main frame operating system and, no, it has nothing to do with $FG,2$Commodore 64$FG$ emulation -- it's $FG,4$$TX+HTML,"x86_64","http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amd64#AMD64"$$FG$.

+TempleOS is God's official temple.  God said to use 640x480 16 color graphics and God said to have a single audio voice.  That is just like how He specified cubits in the Bible! 
  
 1) TempleOS is $FG,2$ring-0-only$FG$, running everything in kernel mode including applications.  You have full access to memory, I/O ports, instructions, etc. at all times, because that's fun.
