Which would mean the people would be free to deride you. I think this is the
point where professionalism comes into play. You and I almost certainly have
hugely differing religious and social views, but I could still work with you
- just through simple professionalism. Surely this privately-run list serv,
with people from all walks of life, is run on the simple concept of
professionalism.

In my opinion, there is no need to start contentious religious and social
debates here.
