Dear Editor
This is in response to your article titled “Bush’s Openness Connects with Religious Youth.”
Congratulations, this has officially offended every non-Christian, non-republican and non-heterosexual on this campus.
I think it would be fair to say, that this constitutes at least half of the students and faculty at this university.
You see, here in America, we have this thing known as separation of church and state. The article and Bush’s behavior in office are an affront to the constitution. Religion should have no bearing on politics.
A person can be moral and good without being Christian, and Christians have been known to kill people in the name of God.
There is a quote in the article that says, “It comforts me to know that President Bush is a man who walks with the Lord.”
Well, it scares me to death.
This man is dangerous to anyone who is a minority in anyway, including women and homosexuals, largely because of his religious views.
Because of his “morality,” he is stripping away the rights of women and denying them to homosexuals all together.
People who are not white, Christian or republican men are still people, too and deserve to be treated as such.
I personally do not enjoy being told what I can and can’t do by a religion and political party that I choose not to affiliate with.
