I think what the author is saying is the segment is called "Thought for the Day", not "Religious Thought for the Day". By excluding secular philosophy, there is a tacit assumption that the only 'worthy' thoughts regarding morality and ethics come from religion.

  Well I often see web sites, tv programs or magazines/books that offer a Recipie of the Day, all of which come from one particular branch of cullinary / cultural tastes. I don't see the Hungarian dessert makers throwing fits over the exact number of French desserts being published under the "Dessert recipie of the day."

    But a program called 'Recipe of the Day' would severely limit itself by only choosing European Recipes, and an Asian listener might understandably feel a bit slighted.
