Grandpa,I live in a lovely trailer park and have great neighbors. My husband is (deployed in the military). Yesterday the heat in my home went out. According to the repairman, I should have heat back on by tomorrow. My neighbor saw the repairman’s truck and came over to see if
Grandpa,I recently read in (an online advice column) an article about how women can spot an abusive man by various signs. I wrote to the column telling (that columnist) about the abuses I received from my wife. She was very physically abusive to me, to the point of once (details
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
Grandpa,My girlfriend is pregnant. She is 15. I am 14. We are both afraid to tell our parents. Is it legal for us to get her an abortion without her parents giving permission? Who do we contact? Grandpa says: Because you both made the error in judgment about birth control,
January 3, 2020Dear editor; What was Illinois lieutenant governor Juliana Stratton thinking when she purchased recreational marijuana in Chicago on the first day of its legal sales in Illinois?

December 24, 2019Dear editor; Oh my, what a fiasco that took up so much time. I call her Nasty, Nutty, Nancy. She is so angry, she’s grasping at straws. She shakes like she has an essential tremor problem, or Parkinson’s disease. Maybe she should crawl back into her Fenced in
Grandpa,I am in prison and serving a 20-year sentence for a sexual assault. I have done extensive therapy while here and I have learned one unwavering fact. I committed my crimes out of a need to take power away from an innocent victim to feed my own need for power
Grandpa,I got a new twist to an old scam. A phone call came from a number in (a different) area code. I did not recognize the number so I did not answer it. Because they did not leave a message, I called back to see if it was a scam.
Grandpa,Reasons for rejection of Replacement Theology. (See thevoice.us/questions-new-testament-husbands-sister). Matthew 5:17-22 and 22:36-40. The law of love does not replace God’s mercy, it fulfills it. There are hundreds of OT scriptures that offer grace. Too many to cite here. Themes for the OT and NT are prophecy and fulfillment, not nullification.
Grandpa,Thank you for asking. A blessing I have for which I am grateful is my younger sister and our pen pal relationship across the miles. Grandpa,I am sick and tired of these Bible Beaters pushing their beliefs onto real people who live in a real world. My kids just got

Grandpa,I have been incarcerated for almost 30 years. During my early years when I was in a maximum-security prison, I noticed how badly homosexuals and transgender individuals were treated. Either they were forced to cell with one other man and considered to be his property, sex slave, or wife, as

September 15, 2019Dear editor; What this country needs is not a good 5¢ cigar, but rather, an effective laundry detergent to clean up its political verbiage. Many of our words are so soiled by moral presuppositions, that they are nearly unfit to be heard in the presence of children. When
