hi astrid,
the best thing to do if you think religious postings on the l are a little
bit overboard is  not to open it, use your delete button or simply
unsubscribe.
katim, you know you are like a brother to me but you made a very big mistake
by not consulting other list managers before posting that on the l. i for
one reason admire modou mbye jabang allthough i don't know him personally
cause i've learned a lot from his postings. modou mbye and others, please
keep sending religious postings cause they are really educative.
peace!!!
mini
