Subject: types? casting and bools

Hi!

Recently I ran into the problem:

Why ruby handle booleans so liberally?
I mean why can I pass anything to an if, and for constructs requiring
bool? I guess many programmers do it the wrong way saying "if 0" and
expecting to be true...

And on the other hand I must use to_i and others to convert from one
type to another.
