Well, it seems to me that matrimonial articles really don't belong
under the purview of a religion newsgroup. They do, however, perhaps
fit in a culture newsgroup, or better yet, one of the personals
newsgroups.
Given that there are already these avenues for the matrimonials (not
to mention things like matrimonial web pages and even a whole
electronic digest), I would suggest that they should not be allowed on
SRH.
If anyone believes that they are appropriate, I would be interested in
knowing why they are believed to be appropriate for SRH. This seems
like an issue which would make SRH a newsgroup consisting of articles
of interest to Hindus, rather than articles about Hinduism.
