Well, I am opposed to net.religion.{jewish,judaism,christian,...}

I see the same proliferation problem (and for the same reasons so well
stated by Rich Rosen (pyuxn!rlr)) in net.music -- need for legitmacy,
a look-down-your-nose attitude, and the inevitable
net.religion.jewish.orthodox or net.religion.christian.
protestant.baptist.southern.reformed...
