Sounds like a reasonable idea.  Seriously.  Then net.religion could be for
general discussions of religion (why it exists, etc.) and comparative
religion, and net.religion.christian could be for exclusively Christian topics.
Perhaps other subgroups might be useful too.  net.religion.pagan for example--
there are a lot of neo-pagans out there, which may or may not surprise some
people.

Needless to say, net etiquette would dictate *not* attempting to proselytize
in other religions' subgroups.  (And needless to say, people would do it
anyway.)
