[ oh! great line eater bug.....] i am including below a message, complete, which was sent to me by a fellow net.religion reader, who has something constructive to say on the subject above. * * * * * Received: from CMU-CS-K.ARPA (cmu-cs-k.ARPA.ARPA) by UCB-VAX.ARPA (4.24/4.31) id AA10086; Thu, 1 Nov 84 16:48:24 pst Message-Id: <8411020048.AA10086@UCB-VAX.ARPA> Date: 1 Nov 1984 19:37:37-EST From: ucbvax!Tim.Maroney@CMU-CS-K.ARPA To: ucla-cs!ellen@BERKELEY Subject: net.religion subdivision Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law. I would object VERY strongly as an occultist to the creation of net.religion.pagan, as the term "pagan" is far too narrow and there is not the slightest chance that the rest of us would be given other net.religion subgroups. I am active on CompuServe's Religion SIG, and recently was able to convince the sysop of ReligSIG to rename one of the sections "New Age". This is a term which seems to satisfy witches (well, the president of Covenant of the Goddess is on, and she likes it, anyway), Thelemites, Masons, and what have you. If you read all of net.religion, you've heard of me. I unfortunately have read-only access to USENET at present. Even as only a passive participant, I would very much like to see a net.religion.newage created. I would also appreciate it if you would forward this to net.religion for me. Thank you. Love is the law, love under will. Tim Maroney Tim.Maroney@CMU-CS-K.ARPA
