| Here is a sample letter: ***************************** Hon. John Cooksey Congressman United States Senate Dear Hon. John Cooksey I read with great dissapointment your reference to a turban as diaper. I am a member of the Sikh faith and Sikh men wear turbans as required by our religious tradition. Many Sikhs are American citizens and have contributed to the well-being of this great nation. Indeed, it was sad for us to read our own representative in Congress not acknowledge the sanctity associated with turbans. Not only among Sikhs but also in Judeo-Christian faith a turban is considered an essential piece of clothing for religious men. Even John refers to seeing Jesus with a turban tied around his head. The events of the past few days has left our nation in great shock and pain. It is during adversity that our true strength becomes evident. Let us all work together to bring the guilty to justice as we help the victims of the despicable carnage. We must work together, shoulder-to-shoulder, to heal the wounds of our nation while being respectful of all Americans whatever their religious background. We thank you for your time and your service to the people of the United States of America. Sincerely, (name and contact information) Related Information on Sikhs & Sikhism About Sikhism http://www.sikhnet.com http://www.sikhs.org |
