Letters to AO

EVERY WEEK WE PUBLISH a selection of letters we receive in response to something you've read at Anglicans Online. Stop by and have a look at what other AO readers are thinking.

Alas, we cannot publish every letter we receive. And we won't publish letters that are anonymous, hateful, illiterate, or otherwise in our judgment do not benefit the readers of Anglicans Online. We usually do not publish letters written in response to other letters. We edit letters to conform with standard AO house style for punctuation, but we do not change, for example, American spelling to conform to Canadian orthography. On occasion we'll gently edit letters that are too verbose in their original form. Email addresses are included when the authors give permission to do so.

If you'd like to respond to a letter whose author does not list an email, you can send your response to Anglicans Online and we'll forward it to the writer.

Letters from 15 to 21 June 2009

Like all letters to the editor everywhere, these letters are the opinions of the writers and not Anglicans Online. We publish letters that we think will be of interest to our readers, whether we agree with them or not. If you'd like to write a letter of your own, click here.

Surely Iran has been sharing something of a 'fetish for high tech' recently

You poor North Americans! Wrapped up in your own self-indulgent cocoon of infotainment. 1) Newspapers are NOT going to go away just as Radio/TV/movies have yet to disappear. 2)The rest of the world does not share your fetish for "High Tech" 3) I had thought AO was a little bit isolated from usual silly Yankee fashion for introspection. Apparently not.

The church is called to be IN the world not OF it.

Just because a few papers go under due to the competition of the marketplace does not mean an End Of The World As We Know It scenario is upon us.

Get Real !

Editor: Good heavens. Do tell us what you really think; enough of this sugar coating. By the way, do you happen to know offhand how many major newspapers in Australia are not owned by News Corp? We can think of two (The Age and the Sydney Morning Herald).
