To the editor:
All we want from our local newspapers is complete and honest reporting. All we want from our local churches is honest guidance with our spirituality. All we want from our local elected officials is honest representation for the reasons we elected them. However, we are getting something quite different. From these organizations we are getting half-truths and outright lies about our communities. We reelect county leaders that ignore the wishes of their constituents, because they believe they know what’s best for us. We have law enforcement leaders who instead of protecting, choose to assist in the pursuance of a human being that they claim are guilty of some vague policy. We self-righteously rail against healthcare abortions but aggressively pursue moving inmates from one state to another so that they can be executed. We say we are Christians as we wear the crucifi x around our necks and on our lapels, and we condemn those who believe differently. We want to turn this entire nation into what we want it to be.
My guess is that Jesus, Muhammad and all the other great spiritual leaders that ever existed, are very sad as to what we humans have turned their teachings into.
