I'd like to offer a thousand thanks to the Star for printing two exceptional opinion pieces, one by Robert Gavlak and the other by Robert Kimball Shinkoskey. Mr. Gavlak speaks to the inappropriate pairing of science and religion in the same classroom. The piece is articulate, intelligent and generally spot on as it clearly and concisely explains the wildly disparate positions of evolutionary theory and Intelligent Design, and why one should stay in the classroom while the other should remain in the church. Mr. Shinkoskey's article, "A trend worse than gerrymandering" absolutely nails the current Republican governing theory - one which rejects governance as public service to the country in favor of "too much is never enough" - translated as however much corruption they can get away with and how much money they can stuff in their pockets. Both of these articles soar a million miles above the MAGA mindset op-eds that have appeared in some recent editions. Thank you!
