To the Editor:
I cannot and I must not stay silent any longer. Why? Why? Why are our churches not speaking out concerning the dangers of gambling?
Have we as Southern Baptists forgotten the Great Commission? Have we forgotten the vows of our Church Covenant? Have we forgotten our Christian values?
Wake up churches, wake up America. Gambling will help destroy the ideas, the ideals and the family values that we have as a nation cherished down through the ages.
All that glitters is not gold.
I hate women's lib. I hate women activists. I hate domineering women in churches and in politics (especially old women).
I love see men (especially young men) and ministers address these issues.
However, if you aren't going to, please allow this old woman to do so without apologies.
