Dear Editor: The editorial comments regarding the upcoming 2020 Presidential election were distressing to say the least (“2020 Foresight,” Editor’s Space, July 27).

Dear Editor: As a retired teacher of high school and college English, I was in full accordance with Father Robert Lauder’s recent discourse on the lack of reading in today’s students (“Importance of Reading,” June 15).

Dear Editor: Thank you for inviting me to submit (and publishing) my summer reading list (“What the Diocese is Reading,” July 20). It is an honor to be in the company of such luminaries.

Dear Editor: It is hard to imagine that anyone could better teach the meaning of love, divine and human, than Father Bob Blauvelt. Through personal example and the Cursillo he inspired The Tablet editorial staff to accept and promote the message of Vatican II.

Dear Editor: There should be a public memorial of Mother Cabrini in New York City. Yes, a statue should be erected to her, especially in view of the Mayor’sefforts to evidence increased statues of women in NYC, pointing to their contributions to our society.

I speak of the children who have been brainwashed and trained to hate without reason and their predecessors.

Dear Editor: As a person of faith who believes in the basic human dignity of all people, especially the most vulnerable among us, I am appalled by the recent reports of the cruel, racist, inhumane treatment of migrant children held in U.S. custody.

Dear Editor: Thank you to The Tablet and Currents News for covering the funeral of baby Monica at Our lady of Perpetual Help in Brooklyn.
