Clergy Corner Our god is…all-knowing

Mr. Know-it-all has bad manners. You start to say, “The Mariners have a good chance to win it all this year because….” Mr. Know-it-all butts in, proclaiming loudly, “But their veterans get too tired, and they don’t have a home run hitter.”

You can’t have a normal conversation with Mr. Know-it-all. He wants to interrupt every sentence.

Letter: Wisconsin would benefit from more immigrants

“Help Wanted” signs are popping up all across Wisconsin. There are several reasons why Wisconsin is short of workers: A recovering economy, the Republican legislature’s stubborn refusal to support a living wage, closed schools and child-care facilities due to the pandemic and lackluster population growth.

Letter: Don’t make today’s people pay for centuries-old mistakes

Founded in 1865, the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) extended into almost every southern state by 1870 and became a vehicle for white southern resistance to the Republican Party’s policies aimed at establishing political and economic equality for Black Americans.

Guest column: RAMC continues to weather COVID-19 pandemic

I hope this letter finds you all well and feeling optimistic. I know I am! I am feeling like forward progress is being made and that is so exciting! I have often heard the phrase that we are “rewinding” back to normal. I personally don’t think there is really a “rewinding” as much as it is a moving forward with renewed purpose.

Nature and Society: Chicks have arrived

The baby chickens are here! They are some of the sweetest little burdens I could have. They are fluffy little ping pong balls who bounce around like super-heated molecules and then collapse where they are and fall asleep.

Geiger Counter

Naked gardening     This morning, I received a list of the best and worst cities for naked gardening. Miami, Florida is the best place to pull weeds in the nude. Lincoln, Nebraska is the worst.

Letter to the editor

The For the People Act of 2021 is a substantial and bold electoral reform bill which would strengthen our democracy! It was passed by the House of Representatives on March 3 and then introduced to the Senate on March 17. It would make sure that the Voting Rights Act of 1965’s protections are restored.
