Re: SRH Reorg: Why Bring In Political Biases?

I find it surprising that Ajay Ji, who drafted the initial RFD
for soc.religion.hindu that specifically mixes politics and
religion, is now accusing me of interjecting politics into
this debate!
I will respond to the rest of your article at another time,
but you are completely missing the point.
The reorganization proposal is designed to COMPLETELY DETACH
all politics from this newsgroup. This newsgroup should discuss
aspects related to religion, and *NOT* the invasion of some obscure
Muslim hordes. I wish to depoliticize the group. Please don't
misread my intentions.
There is a need for discussing invasions; that should go into
the proposed talk.religion.hinduism. However, we want to disallow
political posts in soc.religion.hinduism because it is an
inappropriate place for them to be posted.
Like it or not, SRH is viewed by most net surfers as a mouthpiece
for one political ideology. This is the reason why traffic
is so low; otherwise, why would the progressive crowd not post
more? Other than Partha Banerjee's occasional post, naught
else is seen. You have stifled all debate by your obvious
bias and terrible delays.
It was you who introduced politics in the first place by allowing
all sorts of inflammatory posts to be allowed on SRH. We wish
to cleanse the group of such nonsense.
