Hi, everyone. I think there are some Islamic-related lists on the server as
well although I could be wrong. Just go there and type Islam or Muslim in
the search box, and see what you get... I did this the other night, and
although they were all on St. Johns server, you can find them by going
there. So I don't think that religious postings on a server which is run by
a Catholic unveristy is a problem. Espcially, since I don't believe that
the people who maintain the server are going through the hundreds of email
lists that they host to try to weed out the Non-Cathoic lists or postings.
And if this was the case, I think that there would have been a problem long
before now.
As far as Christianity and Judaism goes, the difference is the Jews do
not believe that Jesus is the Saviour or the Messiah, my understanding is
that the Messiah, to them, has not arrived yet. Thus, they do not believe
in the Second Coming.
Anyway, take care all!
Ginny
