Yiri, in his eagerness to correct other people's logic, has demonstrated his
own faults in this regard.

He *says* that readers should "be careful to consider what [he has] actually
written."

But earlier he gives these "syllogisms":
> Given the premises
>      1. Christians don't want a subnet
>      2. Evelyn is a Christian
>    is it then logical to conclude that Evelyn does not want a subnet?
> No.
and
> Given the premises
>     1. Christians don't want a subnet
>     2. Evelyn wants a subnet
>   is it then logical to conclude that Evelyn is not a Christian?
> No. 

Nice try, but Yiri seems to be saying/assuming/implying:
	1) Evelyn is a Christian
	2) Evelyn wants a subnet
(If he isn't, what's the point of these examples?)

First of all, I want a subgroup, not a subnet.  A subgroup is part of the
whole; a subnet is separate.  And let me add my voice to the statement:
		THERE IS NO JEWISH NET!
There is a net.religion.jewish subgroup.  Second, I don't want a subgroup
because I'm Christian; I want it because I'm *not*.  If Yiri had read my
other postings (re Chinese Jews et al) he would realize this.
