Dear Editor: In response to Edmond Farrell, Feb. 3, The Killing Goes On – i.e. in 45 years an estimated 60 million babies have been aborted. I completely agree with him that many Catholics put Democratic Party values ahead of our religious and traditional moral values.
letters to the editor
Discussion Not Bickering
Dear Editor: I read your editorial (Jan. 13) entitled “Stop Bickering” and I take great exception to your opinion. I do not consider concerned citizens speaking their minds as bickering. These are no ordinary circumstances and Donald Trump is no ordinary president. Citizens of this already great country have a right and obligation to educate themselves about their leaders and to call them out when necessary.
Real Immigration Reform
Dear Editor: In response to Barbara Flynn and Mychal McNicholas, “Marching for Immigrants”(Jan. 27), I totally agree that we need to enact appropriate legislation dealing with “Dreamers” and other undocumented immigrants.
‘The Devil Made Me Do It’
Dear Editor: Unlike old-time comedian Flip Wilson’s “The Devil Made Me Do It,” K. Anthony Noble correctly states (Dec. 9) that we are responsible for the evil we do.
Obligation to Immigrants
Dear Editor: I was a stranger and you welcomed me.” Matthew 25: 31-46.
Life March Needs Support
Dear Editor: On Friday Jan, 19, I joined hundreds of thousands of people to remember and demonstrate against the Supreme Court decision of Roe v Wade (which made abortion the law of the land in the USA) in Washington, D.C., in the March for Life.
Tribute to Msgr. Rodgers
Dear Editor: I learned that Msgr. William J. Rodgers passed away on Jan. 21. I have known Msgr. Rodgers since he arrived at St. Patrick’s, Kent Ave., in 1956 when I was nine years old. Even then I realized that he was an intellectually curious person. His rooms in the rectory were loaded with books from floor to ceiling. He earned his M.A. and Ph.D. from St. John’s University. His doctoral dissertation was on the American philosopher and logician Charles Sanders Pierce.
Non-Ethnic Identity
Dear Editor: Are there any people out there who would like to celebrate their non-ethnic identity?
Bright Christmas Thanks
Dear Editor: I am writing once again to thank you for your gift to Families, Fathers, and Children, the prison ministry program operating out of St. Augustine parish, Park Slope. Because of your continued support and generosity, this program is able to provide much needed care and support to families, especially children who have fathers in prison.
Was It Papal Overreach?
Dear Editor: I really admired Father Cush before he wrote this column… and now even more so. He was brave to put this story (Was This A Case of Papal Overreach?, Jan. 20) out there with all of its gut-wrenching questions, and challenging us Catholics to come to our own conclusions.
