Gloria Adams (CR, Jan. 22) calls upon us all to work together for progress in support of our new president. Celebrate if you will that our new president marks a transition from an age when society treated black men as slaves to an age when society elects a black man to the oval office, but don’t forget that it profits a man nothing if he conquers the world but loses his soul.
I wish no ill to our new president, so I will pray that he changes his mind in regard to efforts that would support the continued slaughter of the unborn; enlarge our already morbidly obese government; weaken our ability to defend ourselves against those that would destroy us; bail out the irresponsible from their sinking ships; take away freedoms under the guise of inflated fears over questionable global warming and solidify the political power of those with a utopian dream that enslaves people to a dependency on a socialistic state.
I offer Leviticus 19:15 as a biblical perspective on those that would show favoritism to the great and partiality to the poor.
