I agree with Steven, Drupal is easier to manage, better supported, with
security functions and features that are not available in either Wordpress
or Joomla. Updates for Drupal are easier (core items), but some of the old
modules are no longer developed or supported.
Drupal was/is the development platform for state, city and governments in
various capacities where the budget does not warrent J2EE.
With an account on GoDaddy. you can play with all of these instantly without
having to do installation engineering; it's point and click.
Some "free hosters" also offer Wordpress, Joomla and Drupal, however you
must pay for the PHP/Mysql and mail, and they don't guarantee uptime. In
fact, they are down a great deal of the time, depending on who you choose.
I have about 20 websites currently happily surviving in Drupal. I have
none that survived the Wordpress security fiasco, nor Joomla's simple
complexity for content management.

"The war of good and evil present in all religions does not always end, in
every faith, with the victory of good, but in every one it establishes a
clear order of existence. The sacred as well as the profane rests on that
universal order.."
