JESUS LOVES ME
Re: Letters (under "Poly Want a Theism") in Reader Mail's Over the Hillary:

I sure do get tired of reading about how I am not Christian because I belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (nicknamed the Mormons). Every time an LDS member writes in to say they are Christian, somebody is sure to write in to attack them. I used to get offended and even took part in one such debate on this website, but now I just get sad.

Whether or not these detractors truly believe what they say, I can not say. I can say though that they are wrong. I and my fellow LDS are Christian. Misinforming others about us may help close a few extra doors in the face of missionaries, but it will open other doors when people come to realize that they have been misled.

Christ is my Savior. He suffered and died for my sins too. And I am trying to live by His words, to exercise faith in Him to salvation. There is nothing that any detractor can say that will change that.

TAXING PATIENCE
Re: Nathan Maskiell's letter (under "Victory or Bust") in Reader Mail's Over the Hillary:

It is clear that Nathan Maskiell does not understand that a true conservative government is not defined by a belief in balanced budgets but by a responsible approach to spending and taxation. Would Mr. Maskiell call some politician a fiscal conservative who taxed away 50, 60, 70, 80 or 90 per cent of his income in order to balance the budget? Spending, Mr. Maskiell, is the real problem, not deficits.
