[Faith-talk] Message from the Moderator

[Linda Mentink]

Hi all,

This list has been hopping lately. But, please change the subject lines.

Eric, please cut down on the forwards. I'd be happy not to have any 
at all. You people who want them, please contact Eric off list, and 
ask him to send them to you privately, or give you the information so 
that you can receive them in your own in boxes.

Joshua, please stop the one-liners replying to Paul's daily quotes. 
It seems that you want to one-up him, and I find this really 
annoying. Also, you are still trying to force your opinions on the 
listers here. You don't have all the answers.

There has been a lot of music discussion here, most of which is not 
appropriate for this list, even though you have all been polite. Much 
of the sharing of youtube links and web sites could, and should be 
done privately.

One lister has contacted me off list, prompting me to write yet again 
another message. Remember, discussion should be about faith, 
religion, and blindness-related issues concerning faith and religion.

And, one more thing: prayer requests are welcome, but please keep 
them to concerns you have for yourself, your family, close friends or 
co-workers. Praying for singers or pastors we've never of can be, and 
is overwhelming. I personally have plenty of requests to lay before 
my Lord, and I'm sure it is the same for most, if not all of you. So 
please don't let us know of every singer or pastor you know who has 
been in an accident, or in the hospital, or passed away. Thanks.

I don't want this list to be a burden, and make listers feel that 
they don't have time to participate. Please keep this in mind.

Blessings,

Linda
