Appreciates music column
To the editor:
I am grateful to Dr. Patrick Gorman for his recent guest column on church music. His column was learned, thoughtful, and realistic. Furthermore, he expressed himself with the love and humility that should characterize all of our communications with each other as fellow members of the Body of Christ.
About 20 years ago, my husband, son, and I attended a Sunday liturgy at an Anglican church in London, near our son’s university. We were awed by the traditional beauty of the church, the long procession of elegantly vested clerics and acolytes, and especially the exquisite, classical music of the large choir. And yet, the church was almost empty; those involved in the service far outnumbered those in the pews.
Thanks for festival support
To the editor:
For everyone who came out to Durward’s Glen on Saturday, Oct. 27, for the Fall Harvest Festival, I would just like to say: THANK YOU! We had great vendors, perfect weather, and the wagon ride tours of the Glen went off without a “hitch.”
We were also blessed with the best volunteer staff I could ask for… THANK YOU all. We already have some great ideas for Fall Harvest Festival 2013, so mark your calendars for October 12.
Consider ‘intrinsic evil’ of abortion in voting
To the editor:
In June 1963, the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the great civil rights leader, wrote a letter to eight white clergymen explaining why he was in Birmingham, Ala., fighting racial discrimination. Dr. King wrote this letter from his jail cell, thus it has been famously known as the “Letter from Birmingham Jail.”
In the letter Dr. King talked about just and unjust laws. “A just law is a man-made code that squares with the moral law or the law of God. An unjust law is a code that is out of harmony with the moral law . . . an unjust law is a human law that is not rooted in eternal law and natural law.”
Since 1973, almost 55 million surgical abortions have taken place in this country because seven unelected men serving for life decided they were above God’s eternal law. Of course, I am speaking of the seven men on the nine-member body of the United States Supreme Court who voted to strike down the abortion laws in all 50 states with its 1973 decisions in Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton.

We must vote when consequences are so great
To the editor:
This election produces a worst case scenario. We must pray without ceasing that worst case pro-abortion candidates don’t get elected, that the American people don’t get so turned off that they don’t vote. It is a great moral negligence, a sin of omission, an evil, not to vote when the consequences are so great.
Christians in particular MUST hold on to Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior (not political parties or candidates) and that the end government result is not a government that mandates killing babies by abortion and the frail person with dementia or disability or non-terminal life conditions by “murder by morphine.”

Vote for culture of life cannot be a mistake
To the editor:
Consider voting for the candidate who will legislate policies that will protect the vulnerable. A war against our own citizens is sadly ignored in the big picture. To quote Swift, war is “that mad game the world so loves to play.”
Abortion is madness. Abortion is a war against the unborn. Killing the unborn child is indefensible and we allow the vulnerable (the teenager) to make this decision. Abuse of anyone, even animals, is indefensible.
