Almost any sect, cult, or religion will legislate its creed into law if it acquires the political power to do so.― Robert A. Heinlein
Came across another fan letter from the 1980s. Used to get a lot of letters, not always this nice.
Jack, you make me sick.
What is wrong with giving thanks for what we have? If you don’t like President Bush invoking his free speech by saying our ‘Almighty’s’ name 36 times in his Thanksgiving speech, then move to East Berlin, Hungary, Romania or Russia. Why do you only get free speech?
I see you did great in history. The separation of church and state at the beginning of country was so that the King, his appointee or any of our politicians would never get the government involved in religion but it is obvious by our constitution that God was always supposed to be involved in our government.
You slight President Bush for using the Lord’s name in vain. Welch, you have done the ‘Almighty’ the ultimate slap in the face.
As far as the 20 million illiterate adults: blame that on the National Education Association (NEA) and the liberal school boards that put more emphasis on the New Age beliefs rather than teaching Reading.
Jack, you only want to express your free speech by criticizing. Where are your solutions? Jack.

Imagine those “New Age beliefs” include evolution and climate change, don’t they? Barbara.
Barbara, you make me scared.
