Offensive statement

Re: Shedding light on Pius’s wartime papacy (Mar. 17):

Nigeria’s Christians

Most people know about the massacre that occurred in two mosques in New Zealand, where 50 Muslim worshippers were murdered.

Discrimination

Quebec’s Bill 21, which bans the wearing/display of religious symbols to those employed in “positions of authority,” is an absolute abomination and outright display of racial and religious intolerance.

No shame

Re: Windsor hospital in bubble zone battle (Mar. 24):

The organization Feminists for Action is quoted as not wanting to be “shamed” by pro-lifers. How could they be shamed when not doing anything shameful?

God’s creation

Re: Healthy eating (Letters to the Editor, April 14):

Unfortunate statement

Re: An architect’s quest for ‘transcendence’ (April 28):

Role model

Re: Forgetting God is unthinkable (May 5):

Thank you for the article about Janet Somerville. 

Pioneers
