I agree
“I agree. I’ve also lived in large cities where people really didn’t know each other and issues were handled on large scale by people you didn’t even know. It’s great to live in a small town like Moultrie where your voice can be heard."
In response
“Mrs. Hayes, in her letter to the editor, is repeating the lie that children are not allowed to pray in school. As long as they do not disturb class, children can pray from the time they enter school until they leave. However, most of us know what she really wants is school-lead prayer, probably by someone with her (I'm guessing Baptist) beliefs.
"I wonder how she would feel if a Catholic teacher started the day with a ‘Hail Mary’ prayer? or a Jewish person that did not acknowledge her Christ? Do unbelievers get a chance to be heard?
"Thankfully, at least in this country, the religious majority can no longer legally force their views on others."
Buchanan
“Buchanan’s ‘Grounds for concern’ thoughtfully sidesteps the fact that we confront a ‘righteous regime’ whose declared project involves the annihilation of those it deems infidel. What’s a ‘Great Satan’ to do? There’s no role for duplicity in any effort at constructive engagement with such a party. Keep it simple: 'Live free or die!'"
Need signs
“Norman Park needs to erect signs for leaving the city limits on Coolsprings/Ellenton Road. Citizens that are new to area speed up and get ticketed unfairly after there are no houses. City limits go to Perry Road. Only a 45- mile per hour sign is erected on the entire road all the way to Coolsprings. Beware!"
Mexican history
“A teacher, students and a pinata? Since when do we teach Mexican history? There is enough American history to go around. We don't need any more attempts of trying to inject Mexican culture. Does this teacher cover Irish or Scottish history? I'd like to see how much American history has been learned by this teacher's students."
Change
“Well, nothing else to complain about so the ranter starts talking about changes. The fact is people change with time, either change with us or get left behind."
Small town
“Always happy to oblige our big-city cousins with a little grass roots entertainment. We can only lament that the big-city pressures driving a more intense ‘to and fro’ experience permits leaving behind those passions that prompt some of us to the belief that the unfelt life isn’t worth thinking about – let alone living. No heart; no center of gravity. Glad to hear it’s addicting."
