Another rejected Letter to an Editor
Another rejected Letter to an Editor, responding to a recent meeting and speeches.

Stirring it was on that stage to hear our headman, Bob Carr, at Hillsong defend diverse Australian life!

And heartwarming to hear the Christian crowd acclaim the need for Hindus, Moslems, Buddhists, Sikhs and all to be equally regarded as having worthwhile ways for humans to live and interpret the world, if we are to survive together on this fragile shell of habitable biosphere.

But saddening also the silence for those whose values and morals stand as firm-footedly strong on a non-religious base.

Also run as an exercise in the old-style declamation, keeping as far under the 200-word limit as possible.
