MySQL isn't ACID. Postgresql is a full-featured database that doesn't allow
injection. It is very safe and secure. Also, the way that PostgreSQL has a
much better user management system and database/table level access ACLs.

Basically, you just asked a bunch of people who have used PostgreSQL over
MySQL why PostgerSQL is better. It is just better. The only time that MySQL
might be better is if you have a very simple website and you want a SQL
backend. For anything else, PostgreSQL is infinitely better.

Thanks,
