Re: “Christianity in 2010: Who cares?” (Feb. 25, page 7)
Knowledge is when we see and “understand” words on paper. It becomes wisdom when the words are embodied; when we practice the teachings in our daily lives. A friend told me this once. more »

Re: “Christianity in 2010: Who cares?” (Feb. 25, page 7)
Though I can see Ethan’s counter-arguments as valid, he’s missing the point: Loving one another. It’s obvious many Christians in history have dropped the ball – we all know that. And to state which ones have dropped it the hardest is irrelevant. We will always have people doing stupid things – Jimmy Swaggart is no exception. more »

Re: “Taking out the trash” (Feb. 4, page 12)

Re: “Free graffiti walls elaborate prank, city says” (Feb. 11, page 3)

Dear Uniter
There has been talk about a merging of the Philosophy, Classics and Religious Studies departments at the University of Winnipeg, though what is actually happening is little understood.

Re: “Re-thinking the anti-poverty strategy” by Gareth du Plooy (Oct. 29, page 9)
Unfortunately Mr. du Plooy fails to provide any “re-thinking” of an anti-poverty strategy in his article. His vacuous argument merely insults those fighting for a poverty-free Manitoba and creates unnecessary confusion. His argument can be summed up thus: Newcomers to Manitoba are better off here than they were before, so they better buck-up, get a job and quit whining. more »
