Reader’s Voice: Goal: Equal treatment for son

June 2, 2022Dear editor; My letter is handwritten because my computer has been hacked. My experience in dealing with the Fox Valley Special Recreation Association (FVSRA) suggests to me that the first-place acceptance for many interesting programs do not go to my son, Paul. Others receive first choice. I suggest...

August 6, 2021Dear editor; The letter appearing in last week’s issue of The Voice, authored by Marjorie Logman, thevoice.us/readers-voice-climbing-the-steps-finds-truth, Climbing the steps finds truth, is a dirty joke aimed at Christians and veterans and it needs a slap back.

Response: Christmas greeting serious

If Frank Patterson’s letter in the January 7 issue of The Voice, “Comment on greetings at Christmas” goes unanswered, then (commentator) Rush Limbaugh’s observation is accurate: “The general population doesn’t know what is happening and it doesn’t even know it doesn’t know.”

Vladimir Putin, president of Russia, criticized Western countries for abandoning Christian roots.

Such a statement from prominent leaders should be taken seriously. If not, our country is on a continuing route to chaos. Mr. Patterson’s opinion shows disrespect for our religious traditions....

True meaning of Christmas essential

December 21, 2020Dear editor; Speaking of Christmas, who is? It is not the media as a limited fact. Christmas has been hijacked, replaced, by happy holidays. Why? Christmas is not spelled in the plural. It is one day to honor the birth of Jesus Christ. The actual date is still...

On choosing representative carefully

October 24, 2020Dear editor; What’s in name? Your roots, or, heritage? Maybe, certainly, your work, success, or failure, are lacking. I am analyzing Barbara Hernandez, State representative, 83rd District, Aurora, North Aurora, by political patronage. My last name is (Von) Solms, a German name, however, I am 100% Polish. My...

Revival of common sense the request

August 25, 2020Dear editor; It is the death of common sense: I understand much clearer now the reasons for Christ’s crucifixion: The mob would not defer to truth. Jesus Christ had to go, according to the mob. A virus is not a new invention. Check it out. It was and...

May 30, 2020Dear editor; No where in the U.S. Constitution is it written that the American media has the right to convict a person charged with murder or seat the jury which will carry out an immoral and unlimited destructive-mob action. Yes, I am writing about the illegal and ruinous...

Takeover? Resistance in three elements

May 8, 2020Dear editor; In 1492: Oh Columbus! The settlement of aliens to American shores, a country we seized from the natives, was unpredictable.

Kneeling culturally acceptable, always

January 19, 2020 Dear editor; Kneeling is a sign instituted by God. It is not a sin, nor a crime. Those who interpret it as a protest coming from low class, common fans, should be fired. The backlash to the press corp and its owners should be addressed from church...
