   So the Presbyterian Church of Australia has banned the Aboriginal "welcome to country" from occurring during worship. For those unfamiliar the welcome to country is the "we acknowledge the traditional owners of the land" thing you see happen in Australia before darn near everything.
   
   It would seem that at least one church body recognises the growing secular paganism infesting Australia and is rejecting it.
