Letter: Motto out of date?
Twice in the last few days I've read letters to the editor that quote your motto: "To fear God, tell the truth and make money."
The writers are using this to argue their point that the lack of God, as in the Christian god, in our country, is the reason for mass shootings.
In our now diverse country, where a large proportion of good people don't follow the capital G Christian god, I strongly object to this line of thought.
Maybe it's time to change your motto. I'm sure you have many non-Christian readers.
