Dear Editor: Tom Perez, the chairman of the Democratic National Committee, recently stated that you cannot be pro-life and a Democrat!
letters to the editor
Pro-Life, Pro-Woman
Dear Editor: I attended the Women’s March several weeks ago in Manhattan. I proudly carried my sign reading, “Pro-Life, Pro-Woman, Anti-Trump.” I marched for three hours and was treated in a respectful and friendly manner by all.
More Marriage Promotion
Dear Editor: The Feb. 11 edition of The Tablet had an excellent column by Bishop Nicholas DiMarzio regarding the institution and sacrament of marriage. In the piece, the bishop even mentioned that National Marriage Week was held from Feb. 7-14.
Leaving the Democrats
Dear Editor: I have been a registered Democrat for 50 years. I am pro-life, pro-traditional marriage, conservative. The Democratic Party at one time embraced all of these values. Now, however, if you hold these positions, they don’t want you to speak your mind, they don’t want you to march with them on women’s marches. You are vilified and snubbed, only because you have a different opinion than that which the Democratic Party espouses.
Sisters Still Relevant
Dear Editor: Rita Piro’s Up Front and Personal article, “Sisters Are as Relevant as They’ve Ever Been,” (March 25) leaves me befuddled.
Hope for the Future
Dear Editor: Your editorial, “Trump’s Choice” (March 11), underscores at least a symbolic victory as a result of last November’s presidential election. If the President’s opponent had won, do you think religious schools would have received the encouraging comments from the President and the Secretary of Education and the promise of some assistance for our religious schools?
Respect Goes Both Ways
Dear Editor: Letter writer Joseph Gunn (Feb. 15) wrote “Unite Behind the Winners,” an eloquent letter describing the results of the many elections he has observed over his long life. He pointed out that no matter the political party, Americans have always supported the winner. But this year he is disappointed that for the first time, some Democrats are not supportive of our new president.
Antagonistic Reporting
Dear Editor: Your piece on Fake News was right on target with a saliently candid message as outlined in the Catechism of the Catholic Church, published 1994 during the pontificate of now St. Pope John Paul II, as it deals with the relationship between the press, the state and the truth.
A Civilized Discussion
Dear Editor: At a time when “civilized discourse” seems to be a rarity, and many, even within families, avoid issues such as politics or religion, it is important to realize the values inscribed in the Constitution of the United States.
Low Income Housing Needed
Dear Editor: I read (April 15) with interest of the new Bishop Thomas V. Daily Residence for formerly homeless people and the fact that the building has been named in the bishop’s honor because of his “commitment to serving the poor around the diocese.”
