I JUST READ online Robert Jewett’s article "The Abandonment of Trust" (November-December 1998).

John K. Stoner 5-01-1999

DAN BERRIGAN’S lament ("Letters," March-April 1999) about the general’s clothes in his post-repentance picture suggests several things to me

IN AARON McCarroll Gallegos’ article "Practicing What We Preach" (January-February 1999), he states, "Not that Christians were responsible for Shepard’s killing."

Leslie Glassmire 3-01-1999

I WAS VERY SHOCKED and upset with your January-February 1999 cover photo.

THE TIMING COULDN'T have been more awful. A murderous spasm was loosed on Baghdad a week before Christmas; Clinton and his captive coven of generals crowded the screen, lying up a lather.

Pat D'Entremont 3-01-1999

MARVIN REES MADE a very good case for debt cancellation to help Honduras and Nicaragua get back on their feet after the devastation caused by Hurricane Mitch.

Bob Bergh, Gwen Bergh 3-01-1999

WE ALWAYS ENJOY Ed Spivey's "H'rumphs" column, but "First Dance" (January-February 1999) is the funniest yet. I (Bob) laughed out loud repeatedly; more sedate Gwenny was nearly as audible.

Lance Bledsoe 3-01-1999

WHILE SUSAN Hogan/Albach's article on the shortcomings of contemporary Christian music ("High Fidelity Faith," January-February 1999) contained some valid points, I confess that I find the whole

David M. Allen 3-01-1999

I JUST DISCOVERED Sojourners the other day, and thank God I did. Many thanks to you and to Aaron McCarroll Gallegos for the commentary on the Christian response to homosexuality.

Bev Hoffman 3-01-1999

IT WAS GREAT to read your articles about the resurgence of the nuclear disarmament movement in the January-February 1999 issue.

Steve Neff 3-01-1999

I AM CONCERNED about Aaron McCarroll Gallegos' article ("Practicing What We Preach," January-February 1999).

Warren Magnuson 1-01-1999

IN HIS ARTICLE "Is Islam the Enemy?" Charles Kimball states that "Muslims worship the same God as Christians and Jews." 

Jubilee Bartlett 1-01-1999

I READ THE commentary by Robert Jewett ("The Abandonment of Trust," November-December 1998), and while I agree that by his "campaign of lies" President Clinton has damaged public trust in our political institutions

Donna Acquaviva 1-01-1999

GIL DAWES' CRITIQUE of the PBS Frontline documentary The Farmer's Wife ("The Face and Fate of Family Farms," September-October 1998) was excellent and, for the most part, I agreed with it.

IT WAS WITH great interest that I read Judith Gundry-Volf's response to the Southern Baptist Convention's statement regarding the duty of wives to submit to their husbands.

Gary Olson 1-01-1999

BRAVO ON YOUR special issue on the church and labor ("Good Works," September-October 1998). One omission was any mention of the Labor Party, an alternative to the twin parties of big business.

Bob Saverine 1-01-1999

I REALLY COULDN'T believe what I read in "Big Labor and Big Business" ("Letters," November-December 1998) which included the statement "...the AFL-CIO doesn't care about people any more than doesn't care about people any more than does Lee lacooca.

Larry Boudreau 1-01-1999

DANNY DUNCAN COLLUM'S article "Diagnosis Determines Cure", as a critique of The Communist Manifesto, offered some fine insights into that 19th-century publication.

THE QUESTION "Is Islam the Enemy?" (by Charles Kimball, No- vember-December 1998) is so clearly repudiated in your current issue.

The Editors 1-01-1999

In our November-December 1998 issue, the caption for the photo on page 31 was incorrect.
