  • King better choice than ‘know-it-all’ zeros”

    To the editor:
    State Rep. Kim King was an exceptional choice one year, eight months ago when she was elected. I know she will be even more exceptional this November when she runs for re-election.
    I personally think she has a done a great job during her first term. If given the chance she will do an even better job during her next term.
    On a personal note, I think the attacks and slenderizing against Mrs. King by some of our elected officials as well as some of our want-to-be’s was totally inappropriate and tremendously out of order.

  • Let’s keep Christ out of the public square

    To the editor:
    As a secularist, I’ve been interested in the recent letters discussing the existence or nonexistence of Jesus Christ and the veracity of the book that chronicles his life and teachings. However, I don’t intend to enter this particular debate.

  • Hoping to serve God eternally

    To the editor:
    There is certainly a struggle among those of us promoting God’s ideals and beliefs while the opposing side vigorously fights and vows to keep his name out of view.
    It’s a great feeling to awaken each day to his splendor and if one day I am to be taken, I then hope that I can serve him eternally.
    May God Bless all for those who have been found and for those whom may be lost.

  • Don’t be silenced by political correctness

    To the editor:
    Intimidation can be a powerful weapon. Tyrants and terrorists have long-employed intimidation into their arsenal to not only keep subjects and opponents in line, but to silence even the smallest hint of resistance.
    Our founding fathers gifted us with a remarkable defense against intimidation when they recognized that humans have certain unalienable rights, granted by God - and then refortified those freedoms with Constitutional protection via the Bill of Rights as they specifically listed those rights.

  • Sports editor’s efforts appreciated

    To the editor:
    Just a quick note of appreciation for the dedication and support that John Herndon has provided to the Anderson County High School volleyball program this season.
    His coverage of our team along with the other sporting events in our community is simply outstanding.
    I have received many favorable comments about the volleyball coverage in The Anderson News from our team parents and fans.
    Plus, John has made many efforts to personally attend our home games.

  • Thank goodness for ‘good old boys’

    To the editor:
    The following is in response to last week’s article on A1 titled “King: Gov. trying to ‘buy votes’ for Stevens.”
    If we have the “good old boys” here in Anderson County and the surrounding area, then let me be the first to say I’m proud and thankful of it.
    I used to watch the good old boys on TV. The Dukes of Hazard’s Bo and Luke were always being falsely accused, framed, chased and unjustly jailed by Boss Hogg, the sheriff and the deputies.

  • King a good choice in November

    To the editor:
    For me, most of the major TV stations don’t like reporting some of the things that affect most of us, so I watch Fox News and recently learned that a lot of our tax dollars are going out fraudulently to people who basically get away with robbing the actual taxpayers.

  • Not believing in God is ‘ultimate absurdity’

    To the editor:
    First there is absolutely no evidence against the existence of God. While this is a negative argument, nevertheless, evidence for the existence of God can be found in logic and reason with the use of historical events.

  • By any standard, Jesus is real

    To the editor:
    I am writing in response to Jerry Milburn’s guest column last week regarding faith columnist Jess Thompson’s piece titled “Facts non-believers don’t want to read.”
    Mr. Milburn said that Jesus is not a historical person because he is only found in the Bible, which Mr. Milburn considers unreliable.

  • Seeing more clearly without religion

    To the editor:
    The following is in response Jerry Milburn’s guest column in last week’s paper titled “Facts that Christians want to ignore.”
    I believe as Mr. Milburn. I believe that many non-believers know more about the Bible than believers.
    I have had an interest in religion and the truth since I was in college. After my divorce in 2001, I found I had little money and a lot of time on my hands.
