I couldn't agree more.  Everyone (even Christians :->) have the right
to choose to whom they will speak.  If I don't WANT to talk in front of
you, you have no reason to butt in.  So if personal mail is at all
legal, it is legal for people to send their mail to whomever they
choose, and not send it to whomever they choose not to send it to.

P.S.  This is not a comment on whether there should be a
net.religion.christian.  I tend to think there should be, though.
