Send me mail ONLY -- I do NOT have time to read all the flames in netnews that will be generated by this. If I receive enough pos- itive response, I will create the group. Note well that for people interested in discussing Christianity in a civilized manner (ie. all agreeing that Christianity is the right religion -- no flames about whether or not Christianity is the right religion) there is a mailing list for that purpose. I believe it has already been announced -- you can send me mail and I will have you put on (or send mail to umcp-cs!liz -- she is the moderator). The existence of this list may make net.religion.christian redundant: consider that when you reply. Once this group is created (if it's created) you folks will have to promise not to duplicate your articles in net.religion (I see this happening sometimes in net.religion.jewish), because if you do this you will be defeating the purpose for which net.religion.christian was created. I hope to see some feedback. -- Baby tie your hair back in a long white bow ... Meet me in the field, behind the dynamo ... Greg Skinner (gregbo) {allegra,cbosgd,ihnp4}!houxm!gregbo
