[net.religion] net.religion.newage

bch@mcnc.UUCP (Byron Howes) (11/26/84)

To date I have received 14 votes for net.religion.newage, including my
own.  There have been no votes against.  I am not sure what level of
response is required before a new newsgroup can be legitimately be
formed, but am inclined to think that the current number is closer to
mailing-list size.

Because of the vagueries of sendmail in this part of the net, I have
been unable to respond to all of those interested in this newsgroup/
mailing list.  If a mailing list is to be created, it will probably
have to be moderated from another location.  I know that I can get mail
to Tim Maroney and will forward the list to him if that seems
desireable.

Personally, I think the various new age religions are well put in
contradistinction to the goings on in net.religion.  Certainly those
who follow the Mother Goddess have something to say about the number
done on them in Genesis. (Talk about redaction!)

At any rate, having tallied votes for a while, I throw the issue open
to further discussion.

 I must have missed some of this  because  I  have  never  heard  just
 exactly  what  would  be  included  in this category.  Would you mind
 elaborating, please.
