Dear Editor: I found the opinion of Robert Tillman (Sept. 16) regarding Catholics who support politicians who are pro choice (or as he incorrectly labels “abortionists”) to be extremely simplistic.
letters to the editor
Censoring Father Martin
Dear Editor: This is in reference to the article (Sept. 23) concerning Father James Martin, and how they cancelled his invitation to speak at the Theological College following the publication of his new book “’Building a Bridge.”
Loves Youth’s View
Dear Editor: Having grown up a half mile from a large swimmable lake, I never went to summer camp. But I can appreciate Kene Nzelu’s comprehensive review (Sept. 23) of the in’s and out’s of day camp versus sleepaway. I recommend parents and kids read the whole article.
Judging Politicians
Dear Editor: I nearly fell off my chair when I read the conclusion of one of the letters to the editor (July 15): Speaker Ryan should be excommunicated.
Why Was Fr. Rother Killed?
Dear Editor: I have read the article (Sept. 23) on Father Rother’s life with the great interest.
Two Views on Anthem
Dear Editor: I respectfully disagree with The Tablet’s position on the recent NFL protests. The editorial asserts that Colin Kaepernick, formerly a San Francisco 49ers quarterback, and his ilk, refuse to stand for the National Anthem because of a perceived disdain they have for both flag and country.
Our Catholic Traditions
Dear Editor: National correspondent Christopher White reports (Sept. 9) on San Domenico, California’s first Catholic school, electing to remove traditional Catholic statues from its campus as a sign of “Articulating an inclusive foundation…”.
More Informed Readers
Dear Editor: The contributors of Readers Forum (Sept. 16) D. Podesta, P. Murphy, J. Chen, E. Moffitt, D. DeSiena and R.Tillman show that Catholics may be getting better informed. It was exhilarating to see such solidarity in thought. Hope prevails!
Selective Criticism
Dear Editor: Re “While in Colombia, Pope Has Venezuela on Mind” (Sept. 13).
Fond Memory of Sister
Dear Editor: It is with regret that I never contacted recently deceased Sister Doris or Sister Mary Emily as an adult. I write this with respect for a dedicated nun who taught me in the eighth grade at Our Lady of the Cenacle School, Richmond Hill.
