OK, I’ve tried it for a week again this year, but I stilldon’t like daylight-saving time. My grass is brown enough already—it doesn’tneed another hour of daylight each day. Let’s turn the clocks back to the wayGod intended—standard time. (Jim Orr)2. The religious right, in its impassioned fervor to correctour alleged moral wrongs and protect the rights of our unborn “children,” mayone day realize its ultimate goal of a constitutional amendment banningabortion. And what will the punishment be for those caught performing orreceiving an abortion? The death penalty, of course. (David Fisher)3. If voluntary school prayer for our children is going tomake them more moral, then just think what mandatory church attendance onSunday could do for the rest of us. (Roderick M. Boyes)4. A country that replaces the diseased hearts of old whitemen but refuses to feed schoolchildren, pay women adequately, educateadolescents, or care for the elderly—that country is doomed. We are acting asif there is no tomorrow. Where is our shame? (Robert Birch)5. Regarding the bill to require parental consent for aminor’s abortion, I would like to point out that the pious platitudes aboutparental authority quickly fall by the wayside when the minor wants to keep thebaby and the parents say, “Don’t be silly! You have an abortion and finish youreducation.” If the parents can veto a minor’s abortion, shouldn’t they also beable to require one? Better the choice, either pro or con, be left to thegirl/woman herself. (Jane Roberts)I chose number 4
