Free speech, as enshrined in the constitution, is allowed here, but 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" - which I believe all members are aware of.

Religion is not part of ICTs.

This thread stands killed after this particular post by myself..

Fortunately, it has been discussed before, and the concurrence was we
put religion out of the list.

We may
 have Jews, Christians, Muslims, agnostic, and atheists on the list,
as well as those who
 practice traditional religions.
