Kyrala: Response To ‘Appeal For Legitimate Art In Art Tunnel’
By GEORGE KYRALA
Los Alamos
I am very upset by Rabbi Shlachter’s mail to the Los Alamos Daily Post (link), it is reprehensible and hurts many feelings beyond misstating some facts.
The comment and feeling expressed by a Rabbi “to erase expressions from some people’s comments and aspirations on the underpass tunnel” is racist. Erasing people and their feeling just because you feel “repugnant” to an idea that expresses freedom for an abused nation is so undemocratic, uncivilized, unbecoming, and inhumane. That feeling may reflect, and may explain, the total abuse that is been inflicted on Read More

Fr. Glenn: Stopping Pretending
By Fr. Glenn Jones:
Alas … hardly a week … a day … goes by without a news story of some public scandal—this or that person betraying public trust or private vows. Very often it’s politicians who are, as a character in “The Hunt for Red October” put it, kissing babies in public and stealing their lollipops in private—the hypocritical face, sometimes criminally so. Rich and famous shattering wedding vows is so common that it’s not even a shocker anymore—more like a tally count. But some of the most painful for we Christians is when other “Christians” are caught embezzling, lying grievously, or disregarding Read More
