Mr. Ken Guilmartin
15 Glenview Drive
Princeton, New Jersey
Dear Mr. Guilmartin:
Thank you for your letter of January 22.
I appreciate your invitation, but I cannot appear as a speaker for a religious or church group. Since you know my philosophical views, you must realize that we would have no way to communicate, and that such an attempt would be improper both for me and for the members of the audience.
Sincerely,
Ayn Rand
