I don't know why I feel a need to respond to this but here goes......... WHY forward any of our messages to another list WITHOUT the writer's permission? I took Ken Roberts' comment as one made in jest and simply smiled. My point being -- even if not in jest, this is our list and we should be able to feel we can talk with each other and not have it spread all over the internet.

It is totally unnecessary to make comments of this nature in reference to any group - religious or otherwise ... Maybe you are not aware that when one searches the Rootsweb archives - using the word Quaker, this msg will be there - already *spread all over the internet*. Since he felt it was worthy of all list members to see this and who knows how many other lists that was sent to, I feel, in all fairness, the Quakers as mentioned here should have a chance to respond. I do not agree that this was made in jest and I am sure not many who have Quaker ancestry would sit there and smile...... but I do agree with this- >> . My point being -- even if not in jest, this is our list and we should be able to feel we can talk with each other and not have it spread all over the internet. - << It should be just that - *with each other* and not thru the list when you hold derogatory opinions such as this.

But where it's cross-posted or forwarded to IS a matter of netiquette and good judgment. Forwarding a yummy recipe for marinated brisket from BARBECUE-L to ANIMALRIGHTS-L will only spark a flame war. About 25 years ago the _Village Voice_ in New York City carried a letters-to-the-editor flame war between dog lovers and those who objected to dogs being allowed to foul the sidewalks. One of the objectors submitted a recipe for sweet-and-sour Doberman pinscher. You can imagine how the dog lovers took THAT. Yes, Ken was cracking a joke. I have both Quaker and Puritan ancestors and didn't see that it was objectionable. Most people understand jokes; others do not and get all huffy and upset.
