'Down Under,' By The Way, Is NOT The Australian Anthem
-
Some Christian schools in Australia have rewritten the Australian national anthem to add Christ's name in there. "With Christ our head and cornerstone, we'll build our nation's might," the new section reads. Not to suggest that it's illegal, but should anyone, as a matter of general conduct, be changing the lyrics to any national anthem to reflect their own religion or ideas? By the way, yes, the Federal Education Minister quoted in this article, Peter Garrett, is the same Peter Garrett from Midnight Oil. (Sydney Daily Telegraph)
