Letter: Callous commentary

I am of the opinion that the author of Police Beat went overboard in the April 30th issue of the Forecaster. It is disappointing to read the public humiliation of a local parent. I understand that the arrest is public information, but was it necessary to portray this mother of three in this manner? I […]

Letter: The Falmouth bubble

I’m so delighted that I live in a Falmouth insulated bubble. So, $2.8 million for another indoor ice rink? While you’re at it, why don’t we close Route 1 from Depot Road to Bucknam Road and build an indoor covered swimming pool to attract winter tourists. Obviously no one in Falmouth has seen their 401k […]

Letter: Vote for Fred

Before voting on June 9, ride around town and see Falmouth’s beauty and assets. From the clear waters of the Presumpscot to pristine lakes, observe the results of hard work by Falmouth citizens. Fred Chase worked as hard as anyone. Breathe deeply the river air and thank Fred that you are not choking from upstream […]

Letter: Salvation Army isn't charitable to all

Having just read Kate Bucklin’s article on VIA Group’s efforts to promote the Salvation Army, I feel that some pertinent information was omitted. The Salvation Army, contrary to popular opinion, is not a charitable organization. It is a fundamentalist religious denomination that has helped sponsor anti-gay rights initiatives all over the country. The Salvation Army […]

Letter: Marriage God's realm, not man's

Edgar Beem concluded his May 8 column by stating that homosexuality is not a sin. It appears he is either quite ignorant of what the Bible teaches, or he has chosen not to believe the Bible. From Genesis to Revelation, homosexuality is listed as a sin.  Marriage was instituted by God – not by man. […]
