I recall reading a mail exchange posted on some usenet group about, IIRC, some boss or similar higher-up being shocked to discover the UNIX systems they ran were full of demons, and as a devout christian wanted the sysadmin to put an end to that immediately. The sysadmin was repeatedly trying to explain that a daemon was not the same as a demon, without success.
Tried to find the post again, but no dice :(
