An Odd Form Of Honor
NP: John Cage, 4'33"
So, a major religious figure visits your country, bringing a message of peace:
"I am confident that this concern for the greater human family will continue to find expression in support for the patient efforts of international diplomacy to resolve conflicts and promote progress," he continued. "In this way, coming generations will be able to live in a world where truth, freedom and justice can flourish – a world where the God-given dignity and rights of every man, woman and child are cherished, protected and effectively advanced. "
How do you greet him? With a 21-gun salute. That just doesn't seem to be on the same page, or even in the same book.
