‘Things’ … effect humanity

‘Things’ … effect humanity

To th editor: In conversations I had with my dad about religion and politics, he told me that the two most detrimental “things” negatively effecting humanity are and will continue to be the misguided evolution of party politics and organized religion. Not politics, but party politics, not religion, but organized religion. 11/27/2024 08:54 AM

Death is a process

Death is a process

To the editor: When is the “life of a mother” in danger? How close to death does she have to be to qualify for emergency care? Whether it’s a miscarriage with complications or an ectopic pregnancy, in a restrictive state that puts fearful healthcare professionals in jeopardy the ultimate price will be paid by the woman. She is not safe. 11/27/2024 08:54 AM

Normal or crazy

Normal or crazy

To the editor: County voters had that choice and chose “crazy” 9,400 to 8,050. But take heart knowing that 74 of 83 Michigan counties opted for “normal”. 11/27/2024 08:54 AM

Thank you

Preserve wilderness

Preserve wilderness

To the editor: Sleeping Bear Naturally sincerely thanks the Grand Traverse Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians (GTB) for their essential role in Superintendent Scott Tucker’s decision to pause all work on Segment 9 of the Heritage Trail indefinitely. Because of GTB’s strong commitment to the natural world, these rare wetlands, mature forests and steep dunes will remain intact. 11/20/2024 04:34 PM

To the editor: Thank you to all involved in putting together the 11/11 @11 Veterans Day Ceremony at the Little Finger VFW Post #7731, and especially Gene Kelly for his inspiring keynote and Pastor Nieheiser for his invocation. The reporting in the 11/14 Leelanau Enterprise is also greatly appreciated. 11/20/2024 04:34 PM

Thank you

To the editor: Can you imagine what would have happened with folks around here still denying the results of the 2020 election if this vote-flip had gone the other way? Thank you to the candidates who took this gut-wrenching news like grownups. And thank you to Michelle Crocker, who has lived through her worst nightmare this past week. 11/13/2024 05:42 PM

Make America healthy

Make America healthy

To the editor: I just read an article from the Wall Street Journal authored by RFKJr., 9/5/24. Headlined “Make America Healthy Again.” He illuminates the chronic disease crisis (CDC), gripping the USA. 11/13/2024 05:42 PM

Kudos to election workers

Kudos to election workers

To the editor: After working in Centerville Township precinct during both our primary and general elections this year, I wanted to commend our County and Township officials during a challenging year. No voting system is perfect, no technology is perfect, and thankfully there are several layers of checks and balances. 11/13/2024 05:42 PM
