This is moral?

To the editor:

With the massive turnout of Christian voters who cited “moral values” (meaning same-sex marriage and abortion) as their reason for voting to give George W. Bush four more years in the White House — while possibly 100,000 Iraqis, many of them children, have died as a direct result of our country invading theirs — I’ve been wondering: Do Christian children still sing “He’s Got the Whole World in His Hands” and Jesus Loves the Little Children” in Sunday school? Or is singing about their God’s love for the whole world’s children considered to be too quaint and 20th century in our brave new “moral” post-9/11 America?
