Professor Natelson and the Constitution

The educational article on the Constitution by Professor Natelson was ausgezeichnet (excellent). I hope The Epoch Times reprints it once a year or publishes it in a small booklet attached to a pocket Constitution. As I read the Constitution, the Senate represents the states through their senators. Every state has one state government and that…


A Revelation for Marxists

I write this condensed version of the connection of Darwin to Marxism, and trust that it may reveal to many why Darwin should not be taught in schools (even as a “theory”). And that Darwin’s theory of evolution supports a main pillar of socialism, which has failed each time it was implemented in part because…


Re: Vitamin D

I would like to comment on the letter to the editor titled “Vitamin D” by Valerie Looper [published in the July 21–27 edition]. It might be construed to your readers that taking 7,000 IU is the normal dose of vitamin D for deficiency, as her “level” is maintained this way. Recommendations for supplementation with cholecalciferol…


Zero Emmissions

The Aug. 5 Epoch Times article “Biden Wants Half of All Vehicles Sold in the US by 2030 to Be Zero Emission” [published online] was laughable. The government’s incompetence in attempting to dictate the pace and direction of U.S. product innovation is always a hoot. While it is encouraging that leaps in vehicle electrification technology…


Specter of Communism: Destruction of the Family

This article should really hit home. Here in New Jersey, a lot of women look at employment careers as the only way to become something. I’ve heard many times that being a mother shouldn’t be their identity. I think we have it wrong. Being a parent is the best thing we can do. Your job,…


GMO Crops

I have to correct some misleading information provided in a letter by Dr. Boyles [in “The Readers’ Turn”] about the active ingredient in Roundup, glyphosate. While he is correct that glyphosate is a herbicide (weed killer) and not a pesticide, he is wrong about its use in our food chain. It is applied not only…


How Mandating Masks, Vaccines, and Lockdowns Jeopardizes Roe vs. Wade

The current argument in favor of mandating masks, vaccines, and lockdowns due to SARS COVID-19 is that it is more important to safeguard the health of the general public than their innate freedom to decide what happens to their own bodies. If this is true, then why is it okay for women to have abortions,…


Communist Thinking

The violence treat growing in many parts of the United States can be traced to seeds planted in the 1960s. Bernadine Dohrn, Weatherman president, and wife of Bill Ayers announced that she was “a revolutionary Communist.” She preached a Marxist version of “race war” (think: critical race theory). Dohrn and Ayers’ doctrine influenced a president….


For What It’s Worth

I’m not a doctor or a scientist; however, I can read and I’m capable of reasoning. Toss in a healthy dose of skepticism about all government experts, especially politicians, and you have a “free thinker.” On July 26, Katy Grimes, writer for California Globe in Orange County, said that the CDC is finally pulling the…


Cultural Revolutions

As someone who has dedicated much of my life to the study of history, and as someone who acknowledges that changes are constantly taking place, I offer the following observations. Our country is currently experiencing turmoil eerily reminiscent of developments in other countries in dark times. Power-hungry forces have all too frequently generated movements categorized…
