THE LOVE LETTER TO HUMANITY (Letter to Sunday Star-Times, August 8)



"It’s quite a nice thing,”says Dr David Galler (A love letter to humanity, August 7), when your loved one is dying, to turn to religion. What a masterpiece of understatement.
 
If everyone turned (converted) to genuine religion - which means loving your neighbour because you love God – Sunday Star-Times wouldn’t be running stories like ‘Secret Police List of NZ’s Bad Bars’.

There’d be no ‘ ‘Cheating’ truckies’. There wouldn’t be a ‘School board in race row’. Not even ‘A tangled web’.
 
As Alexander Solzhenitsyn pointed out, we have forgotten God. The ‘love letter to humanity’ we all need to read is the Bible.
