The issue of the letter was about "hate" toward pagans or those who are non-Christian.
If the author does not profess Christianity, how can they know what is "Christ-like?"
What this letter writer forgot is that Christians have a right to profess, protect and defend their faith. If they feel that pagan growth in the community is a spiritual risk to their children and their families, they have the right to bring this to the public's attention.
Christian moral responsibility requires that one does not sit back and allow pagan or secular influence to harm Christian principles. This is what most Christians who are socially active try to do.
They merely want others to respect their own faith and to keep immoralities and harmful practices from hurting others. This involves keeping schools open to Christian children by asking public schools to respect Christian beliefs too and individual towns to keep anti-Christian practices away from where they may mislead others.
We are all responsible for our fellow neighbor. That's how Christians are Christ-like. We pray for others and we try to help them love Jesus too.

Naomia does the picking and choosing on published letters to the editor and she must have liked the letter you are referring to.
She is not a good editor for any paper. She only publishes letters that seem to suit her.
I've have many issues I'd like to write about yet she is not worth my time.

I will mind my own **** business, letting everyone know how destructive paganism is, both morally and personally, is my business.
It is every Christian's business. report abuse
Know ye the truth....and the truth shall set you free.
But then again, truth is subject to the interpretation of both the presenter and the beholder. Christianity, just like Statism, is a faith based doctrine designed for the primary purposes of mind control.
