I am writing in response to Matt Duran's letter, "Creationists push their outdated views on people," in Tuesday's issue of the Daily Lobo.
Honest to Christ, aren't there more important things to debate on the Daily Lobo's Opinion page than some invisible old man up in the sky with his only begotten son and the merits of hot man-on-man sex?
I'm finally convinced that women these days are nearly impossible to please. We can work all day, support our girlfriend financially and emotionally through her studies, watch the baby, do the dishes and generally bend over backward for her - but at the end of the day, the only thing she's thinking about is putting knives in the sink so we can cut ourselves just so she can make a point.
There are aliens among us. No, I don't mean illegal immigrants - I mean men. That's right, men. Those clueless scoundrels we love to hate and hate to love.
I am writing this letter in response to Don Schrader's letter in Tuesday's Daily Lobo concerning men who make gay jokes toward him.
Recently there has been an interesting discussion of religious issues on Christianity in the Daily Lobo.
In light of the ongoing battle between creationism and evolution, I feel the need to express my thoughts on this heated subject.
Nowhere in the world, I believe, is authentic Christianity more confused and distorted than in America.
Judas - traitor or obedient to the will of God?
Many males who yell "faggot" at me have sex with males or want to, but do not have the balls to say so.
With talk of an energy crisis and Iranian weapons common these days, the issues of nuclear power and nuclear weapons are as relevant as ever.
I try hard to avoid debating creationists - little good ever comes from it - but Gerardo Saenz' letter in Thursday's issue of the Daily Lobo requires at least a brief response. If Saenz wants to engage in an intellectual debate about evolution, he should avoid using creationist arguments that went extinct long ago - though perhaps he doesn't believe in extinction, an evolutionist conspiracy.
A common argument against Mexican immigrants is that they push down wages of American workers, especially among high school dropouts.
This is in response to Gerardo Saenz's letter in Thursday's edition of the Daily Lobo titled, "Law of cause and effect disproves evolutionary theory," in which Saenz attempts to single-handedly disprove evolution with a couple of fallible theories.
This is in response to Michael Weber's letter in Wednesday's issue of the Daily Lobo titled "Churches, archaic beliefs should be thrown out" in the Opinion section.
I'm writing in response to Gerardo Saenz' letter in the Thursday edition of the Daily Lobo, in which Saenz speaks regarding Michael Weber's letter and, in it, thoroughly discusses his views on evolutionary theory and creationism.
Editor, Impeach George Bush? That's kind of like a sick joke. It would take longer to push the paperwork through the system than he has left in office. Most of the people who are in a position to impeach him are his sycophants. Any Republican who voted to impeach would be politically doomed, whatever the outcome.
