Working Together as a Whole for the Whole

RECEIVED Tue., Dec. 11, 2007

Dear Editor,
    Re: “The Terrible Thing” article [“Page Two,” Dec. 7]: Excellent. Being an East Round Rock conservative for 37 years, it is even more appropriate how inspired I was reading this article. Why must everything be a war of people? I love Austin, and one of the best aspects is its "mix" of people and ideas. I love the concept of expression over evangelism, discernment over judgment, respect over hate. We all seek something true, and the trip is much better when we work together as a whole for the whole. I try to share this idea with my friends, co-workers, church, family, and neighbors. The New Testament Bible even says to debate vigorously but not divisively. I look forward to the rest of the article. On this Thursday of a dull week in a Baja Fresh in Oakhill, my brain is racing, thanks.
