Tim and everyone else,

I have now received two identical messages from our newest member who call themselves "Stephanie". The first one I chose to ignore, the second is one too many. This is the message:

>Hi,I'm new here, how's it going?"Buddhism has the characteristics of what would be expected in a cosmic religion for the future: it transcends a personal God, avoids dogmas and theology; it covers both the natural & spiritual, and it is based on a religious sense aspiring from the experience of all things as a meaningful unity" - Albert Einstein---StephanieURL deleted for safety's sake - yours, dear reader.

For anyone else that has received this, I would strongly urge you to ignore it and, especially, not click on the URL provided - you don't know what unfortunate circumstances that might cause.

Tim, I've left the second message severely alone in my personal inbox for you to have a look at. Once finished, kindly delete.

Of course it might just be some religious nut who has taken exception to my given name, but "she" doesn't know much because Einstein did not in fact give heed to religion - read carefully what he said, that's no endorsement of anything at all and in fact an implied criticism of all actual religions ("avoids dogmas and theology"). As for me, I'm quite happy to declare my atheism and it'll be a long day in hell before I revoke it.
