Thanks but I don't need a misguided history
lesson skewed to support your warped view of
events attributing the creation of the Web to
your lord and savior who you wish was sole
entity responsible for the Internet but was
instead created by the geniuses who built the
ARPANET in 1969 which is what formed the
technical foundation and what made the
Internet possible.

I have no idea where your anger, vitriol, and venom originate. I humbly suggest you find someone professionally qualified to help you work through these issues. Perhaps you are experiencing a persecutory delusion[1], though I freely state I am not a clinical psychiatrist and only present this as a possibility from someone who has never met you personally.

Your fixation of the HTTP protocol was
invented by Tim Berners-Lee, on-his-own.
The first version created in 1991 supported
the most important GET Request method
(http://www.w3.org/Protocols/HTTP/AsImplemented.html).

Of course Tim Berners-Lee has been and remains a major force in defining the HTTP protocol and "the Web" as we know it. This is well documented and an indisputable fact. However, as great as his contributions have been and continue to be, he has not operated alone.

What you fail to mention in the statement you quote is:

This is a subset of the full HTTP protocol,
and is known as HTTP 0.9.
(http://www.w3.org/Protocols/HTTP/AsImplemented.html)

The HTTP protocol has not stood still and has had contributors throughout the last 24 years. If you cannot accept this, that is your issue to deal with and not mine.

If you had even read Section 1.1 of RFC-1945, you could have saved yourself the embarrassment of saying "The first version created in 1991", as the RFC reads thusly:

HTTP has been in use by the World-Wide Web
global information initiative since 1990.

Remember that one of the authors of this RFC is Mr. Tim Berners-Lee.

You then go on to spew:

The fact you glorify a simple text
protocol as the magical thing that makes
the web possible is indicative of the
extent of your religious delusion to a
single technology.

Well, if you cannot accept my explanation of the importance of HTTP, perhaps you can fathom what Mr. Berners-Lee wrote instead:

Did you invent the Internet?

No, no, no!

...

I just had to take the hypertext idea and
connect it to the TCP and DNS ideas and
-- ta-da! -- the World Wide Web.[2]

Can you accept/understand that the primary contributor to what you colloquially describe as what "makes the web possible" is, in fact, stating that the web was made by combining hypertext with previously established technologies? See also previous mention of persecutory delusion[1].

Go ahead and try make versions of Gmail,
Facebook, Google Maps, Google Docs / Office,
etc with dumb clients and full page
reloads on every request ...

The fact that you conflate a REST architecture with "full page reloads" only shows your ignorance. There is nothing precluding an XMLHttpRequest sent from a browser client to a REST endpoint. Actually, it is quite common and the REST server wouldn't know/care if it were done anyway.

Any fool can create simple a text protocol,
any fool can create a dumb, server-driven
client, any fool can document a
code-on-demand solution.

No, any fool can trivialize the accomplishments of those before them. Any fool can benefit from infrastructure which allows them to be oblivious to how the bytes sent around the world "just work." Any fool can lament about performance on a resource constrained platform, such as a mobile device, and reject possibilities to address them.

That isn't to say HTTP isn't a well-thought
out and defined work, it is ...

That must have seriously hurt you to type.
