For the sake of everyone's sanity .. if you (any user, not mark specifically) don't want to use systemd, then please don't use CentOS-7.
For example, you could help out with Devuan, which aims to remove systemd from Debian, or you can switch to Slackware, one of the few major distros not to even include systemd (so far).
Or switch away from Linux, say, to (Free|Opnen|Net|PC-|...)BSD just to expand options. But to take advantage of the greatness of RHEL and CentOS life cycle you have to live with systemd and friends no matter what you thinks about them (you see, I already have convinced myself ;-).
And yes, thanks for everybody's effort to keep discussion off the insanely polarizing us topic(s).
I am quite happy even for there to be a SIG to modify CentOS-7 to not require systemd and creating a variant of that branch. Those discussions (if enough volunteers were found to staff the SIG) would take place on the CentOS-Devel mailing list.
But what is of no use to anyone is another 500 mail flame thread about systemd being the devil.
Johnny, thank you for your efforts in trying to keep the mailing list on-topic. :)
