Things Have Changed In A Few Short Weeks

To The Reader’s Forum: The state of the 2024 presidential election has changed since President Biden decided to drop his candidacy for president. There has been a tremendous surge for the Democrats in naming Kamala Harris (current VP) and Tim Walz (Governor of Minnesota) as their candidates for President and Vice President, respectively. Even though I planned to vote for Biden, the changes are welcome because of their youth and energy! On the Republican side, Trump is now the oldest candidate and JD Vance are, well, not suited for the jobs. Trump has 34 convictions for fraud, is ...

Who Are We To Judge?

To The Reader’s Forum: In recent weeks, there have been guest essays in the P-J delineating the sins of Donald Trump. Who are we to judge another person? Do we know the heart of any one else? Only God knows our true heart. Only God knows who has or hasn’t been reconciled to Him! If you read and understand the Bible I think you will find more than a few grievous sinners who repented and became great Saints! Donald Trump may or may not have read the Bible; how are we to know? He might not know chapter and verse but he does know compassion. He does have respect for life from ...

Pity The Poor White American Male

To The Reader’s Forum: In his latest nonsensical diatribe on the Trump assassination attempt, Mel McGinnis included the quote “Why so many female agents?” His response was the predictable diversity, equity, and inclusion. How dare women challenge undeserved male dominance! The question that should be asked is why there are so many male agents? All Mel has to do is look around and notice that more than half of the people around him are female. One might ask why so many male assassins? Why are there so many male mass murderers? Why so many male sexual predators, ...

Choosing Bad If Given Choice Between Bad And Worse

To The Reader’s Forum: In Saturday’s paper a contributor asks why Christian Evangelicals would vote for such a blatant and conspicuous sinner as Donald Trump. I don’t want to speak for evangelicals, but to me some of the answers are pretty obvious. They think they would be better off, spiritually and materially under Trump than under a Democrat. They think another Trump administration would do less to encourage the ever increasing discrimination and persecution of Christians both in their home towns and throughout the world. They think Trump would do less to facilitate ...

Asking For An Explanation

Responding to the “Opinion Author” of the PJ article of Aug 10 entitled “Evangelicals Who’ve Been Deceived”. I am truly amazed that anyone would criticize Evangelicals for supporting Trump, and thus empower the political left which is as anti-evangelical as one can get. I find it even more amazing that any true evangelical would fall for such nonsense. Have we forgotten how perverse the “morals” of the post-modernist left are with respect to the values and virtues of Western Civilization that came about through Christianity? The left formally supports the most ...

Thank You, President Biden

To The Reader’s Forum: Thank you, President Biden, for showing us what true patriotism looks like, putting our country and democracy above your own ambitions and ego. You have spent your life serving your country and continue to do so now. Now it is time for all of us Democrats and others who believe that another Trump presidency would be devastating, to unite and work for a common goal. Mary Bosek Bemus Point
