‘Respecting Life’ should include lives lost in wars

On October 9, 2008August 31, 2023
Ron Lins

To the editor:

Nowhere in the “Respect Life” issue of September 25 did I find any mention of the thousands of innocent lives that have been, and will still be, lost in the ongoing wars taking place in Iraq and Afghanistan. Don’t these lives deserve prayerful recognition as well?

Hopefully, any “Respect Life” followers will make these war-time efforts a part of their consciences as they prepare to cast their ballots in this fall’s election.

Ron Lins, Blue Mounds
