With all respect to Msgr. Steven Aguggia, allow me to share my two cents on his series about the Marriage Tribunal.
Letters to the Editor
We welcome letters to the Readers’ Forum, but they must include (for verification purposes) the writer’s full name, home address and phone numbers. Letters with incomplete information won’t be considered for publication. Your name may be withheld upon request, after verification is completed.

Letters containing the proviso “Do Not Edit” also are not considered. You can submit your letter by clicking the button below.
Need to Hear from Muslims
Dear Editor: Once again Donald Trump is receiving flack over his recent comments about Muslims entering this country until federal authorities know what’s going on, perhaps with their insidious motives.
Our System Is Overwhelmed
Dear Editor: I am an Eastern Rite Catholic, retired senior citizen, 80 years young who contributes to a number of charities each year, yet one who vehemently objects to a Syrian resettlement within the United States of America.
No to Women in Combat
Dear Editor: Destruction of women is done in China before they are born and now it will happen here with women in U.S. combat units. Will chivalry come back; male officers saying, “Oh, no you go first.”
The Pill Is the Problem
Dear Editor: The most traumatic event of the 20th century was not the Second World War or the dropping of the atomic bomb. It was the birth control pill!
A Bridge to Life
Dear Editor: I enjoyed reading Father Christopher Heanue’s story (Dec. 12) about the newborn found in Holy Child Jesus Church. I especially enjoyed the three themes for evangelization.
Yes, Santa Claus Lives!
Dear Editor: Each year, Patricia Daly, our fourth grade teacher shares the letter and response for: “Yes, Virginia, There is a Santa Claus.”
Speaking Against War
Dear Editor: Thanks to Karen Osborne for her Dec. 5 column challenging teens to “Start Building a Peaceful Future.”
Everyone’s Role Model
Dear Editor: I know Tom Bowers (Readers’ Forum, Nov. 7) because he is my daughter-in-law’s grandfather. He is everything and more that Jean has described. An honorable and sweet man who doesn’t know the meaning of evil or unkind.
The Great Sister Estelle
Dear Editor: Sister Mary Estelle, R.S.M., (Obituaries, Nov. 21) was a wonderful lady. She was my homeroom teacher at Mater Christi H.S. Working beside her was always a joy.
