[kictanet] Message to Kenya

[Grace Githaiga]

The list allows for free speech. However, the aim of this forum is "a multi-stakeholder platform for people and institutions interested and involved in ICT policy and regulation. The network aims to act as a catalyst for reform in the ICT sector in support of the national aim of ICT enabled growth and development" (http://www.kictanet.or.ke/)Regrettably, Religion is not part of ICTs.

Much as we may want to promote free speech, is this allowed on the forum?

Same here - I'd really prefer it if we could stick to ICT and ICT-adjacent topics. Anyone who wants religion will find plenty of other fora for that.

I concur with Nyabuga. 
Whether one is agnostic or the opposite, I think there are more appropriate fora designed for these sort of messages

Dear listers,
Being largely agnostic, and a strong believer that we mostly control our destiny, I find the message from the said 'apostle' a lot of gibberish really.  I would like to see more meaningful discussions rather than some self-promoting pontification here. I respect his right to say what he wants, and to freely express himself but I am not sure how such dogmatic writings help us advance or consolidate democracy in Kenya.
