Hi Rachael,

Cranks like this arise from time to time. The policy of the moderator is
non interference. Therefore, the best thing to do is to block messages from
this sender in your email client program. Pretty much all email programs
allow you to filter undesired senders individually.

In my opinion, the best way to remove such noise from a list is for all to
simply ignore it and not respond. The psychology of a lot of these people
is that sadly they crave attention, and posting lunatic religious rants
always stirs people up and they get the attention they crave. By utterly
ignoring them they are deprived of oxygen and they go on to the next list.
Even this email feeds his attention-getting craving, so enough!

The other way to discourage the offending behaviour is simply to laugh at
him. There is no more powerful thing than Satire! :-)
