Greensburg —
Dear Editor:
This is in response to the witch hunt going on at a local church.
The people that are upset about what the church teaches either don't read the Bible, or their feelings reflect upon their lifestyle.
The King James Bible is the infallible word of God. You either like it, or you don't like what God had his followers write down in scripture.
There are several scriptures in the Bible that tell us God hates sin.
In the Old Testament, one example was the tale of the cities of Sodom and Gomorra.
God does not the sinner, just the sin. This church does not teach hate, they are doing what God has told us to do: "Go and preach the word of God to all the land."
It is their right to teach the word of God to their children and any non-believers. Under our Constitution, which was written by God-fearing people, they have this right!
No one makes you go to church. It is your choice to believe or not to believe.
God is a just God. The Bible tells us several stories about God commanding his people to do what he wants them to do, and if they didn't, God punished them.
God told Moses to speak to the rock to bring forth water, but Moses instead hit the rock with his rod. God punished him by telling he would not get to cross over into the Promised Land.
One of the worst sins we can commit is to rebel against the known will of God in our lives. The sin of rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft and idolatry (1 Samuel 15:23).
When God tugs at your heart strings and you receive the Holy Ghost, you will receive the truth, and the truth will set you free. Until then, you won't understand all of God's teachings.

Who's the real extremist? Donnelly or Mourdock?
Dear Editor:
Extremist?
That is a catch word used by Joe Donnelly to describe Richard Mourdock. Donnelly, like President Obama, cannot run on his failed record Ñ and failed it did! -
Goin' down the road, feelin' bad...
Dear Editor,
I'm no "Roads Scholar," but it's time for me to express my displeasure with our highways being repaved using the simply awful chip and seal method. -
Memory loss and politics
Dear Editor,
There is a profession for people who not only hope, but absolutely depend on people to have memory loss. -
CASA's still needed
Dear Editor,
Two hundred.
That's how many local children have been the victims of abuse or neglect but currently sit on our waiting list at Advocates for Children, without a Court Appoint Special Advocate (CASA) volunteer to stand by their side as they navigate the child welfare system alone. -
Vectren energy delivery problems
Dear Editor:
Is it just me, or is Vectren Energy Delivery the most unresponsive, uncaring, corporation known to man? -
Motorists beware: Sweet grandmothers can kill you
Dear Editor,
At about 4:30 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 30, I stopped for a red light at the intersection of South Main and Water Street in Rushville. -
What's in a (team) name?
Dear Editor,
Even though we achieved independence from Great Britain two centuries and change back, many Americans still harbor feelings of Anglophilia.
They consider customs "British" or "English" to be superior to those of upstart Americans. -
What about guns?
Dear Editor,
The national controversy over gun ownership and the desirability of laws regulating gun ownership continues unabated; indeed, it is exacerbated each time some crazy goes on a shooting rampage. -
More on the Batman shooter, comic debate
Dear Editor,
I'm not na•ve enough to think that I was going to change Mr. Voiles' mind when it comes to comic book culture and how it is perceived in wake of the Aurora shooting, but at the very least I was hoping for him to see my point of view (which is a point of view shared by many people, I've come to find out). -
