MONDAY, MARCH 18, 2002 "I absolutely love it when readers take pen in hand to voice their concerns with me. And nothing brings out the letter writer in our readers quite like a column that contains possible pro-wolf propaganda, such as the one I wrote a couple weeks ago. We'll get to those later. But first, a reader in Bozeman writes purely out of concern for my soul. Several weeks ago I wrote about a particularly hellish family camping trip that we took into the Utah desert. In that column, I said, "I don't believe in Hell." That simple statement prompted "Concerned in Bozeman" to write and inform me that there IS such a place (as Hell), and "if (you) don't accept Jesus Christ as (your) Saviour ... that's where (you'll) go - for eternity." The letter ends with the admonition, "John, do go get a King James version of the Bible and read it - and your wife too." Included with the letter were a couple of small religious booklets assuring me that I was a sinner, which I already knew anyway. . ." Get the Story:
