In the Feb. 21 edition of The Goshen News, Bonnie Erbe — TV host and columnist for Scripps Howard — claims that New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo is a hero. He wants legislation in New York that would allow a woman to have an abortion at any time, no matter how far along she is with her pregnancy.
The column claims that the reason for the legislation is that women should always have the right over their own body. Nothing in the column says anything about the rights of the unborn being — one of God’s creations. Why don’t they just say that it is OK to murder the unborn, innocent child? Terms such as “abortion” and “terminating the pregnancy” are just soft words for killing.
The Bible, in several passages, tells how Jesus loved the little children. Our Society has moved away from what is right to what is convenient.
The great shame of our country is the murder of millions of unborn children, never given the chance to live. We will pay a tremendous price for this sin.
— Paul Scott

Remember the amnesty law of ’86?
The “Gang of Eight” U.S. Senate members have drafted an immigration bill that’s worse then the amnesty bill signed into law by Ronald Reagan in 1986. S. 744 gives those here illegally instant Registered Provisional Immigrant status, which means they are free from being deported if they register for amnesty.

Don’t ignore signs of someone contemplating suicide
Everyone has issues that they have to deal with in their lives. It’s when we become overwhelmed and our issues become so drastic that they are unbearable that the results can be catastrophic. Suicide is a desperate attempt to escape suffering that has become unbearable.

Goshen should stick with ‘Redskins’
I must respond to the letter to the editor from Mr. Ron Chupp (The Goshen News, May 9). What’s in a name, Mr. Chupp? I too have a Native American heritage, and for some reason, I am not offended by the term Redskins, or brown skins or any other color of skins.

More important issues than a nickname
I would like to, in the most respectful way possible, respond to Mr. Chupp’s letter (The Goshen News, May 9) regarding the ongoing debate over the term “Redskins” being used as the nickname and mascot for the Goshen school system.

There is hope through God
May I share what happened to me after praying about the issue of whether to have guns carried by school authorities at Goshen High School. While calling out to God, my question was: Why have we as a nation come to trusting in government agencies, such as Homeland Security, rather than obeying the Constitution in what you have declared through our forefathers?

Sheriff has this reader's support
This letter is in defense of the Constitution and Bill of Rights, and in response to Shari Mellin’s letter (The Goshen News, May 8) about Sheriff Brad Rogers not obeying the laws related to anti-gun legislation

‘Redskins’ nickname is offensive
The question posed (in the May 5 edition) was, “What’s in a Name?” In the case of the GHS (Redskins) mascot, it is insult, degradation, racism, and an ongoing slap-in-the face reminder of the disgusting manner in which my Native American ancestors were treated by Europeans.
