Hamjatta,

You never miss a chance to show your eagerness to insult me  or
others.However, I am not going to bring myself down to your level my dear.
Keep doing what you do best.

<< Katim,
     I thinking attempting to gag religious postings on the L would be in
 betrayal of a liberal principle of this forum; the free and unhindered
 exchange of ideas bright and ridiculous as they might be. Also it would lay
 the List Managers open to genuine, well heeled and concerned criticism.
     I think it would be safe to advice list members to DELETE postings that
 they have no wish to read rather than gag those who post such messages. This
 would be in contravention of liberal principles that have made the L so
 vibrant and diverse.
     Don't get me wrong. I never open these religious postings. If I need
 spiritual advice, I know where to go to. Most of these postings come from
 characters who are nothing but sanctimonious fraudulent poseurs; who say one
 thing only to do another. Take the case of Jabou. She is always sending these
 postings online but doesn't cease to label smear people as conies of some
 faceless wonders who are hell bent on destroying the Gambia. And she is
 always sending postings that carry messages of truth and forgiveness. Talk of
 sanctimonious and convenient posing on the Internet!!!!
     My disgust in these characters will never let me betray my liberal
 principle of the free exchange of ideas much as I might find some of these
 ideas and the characters behind them reprehensible and nauseating.
     I say to you revoke this gagging order of yours and let the sanctimonious
 fraudulent poseurs be. Trust the maturity of list members to sift through the
 rubble. I'm sure most members don't even have time to open these religious
 postings. By going ahead with this gagging order, you will only be giving the
 enemies of this forum with more ammunition to fire at you. Soon you will be
 hearing charges of Gambia-L being an atheistic forum or very anti Islam.
 Have a great evening.
