Fallibility of Mankind…

Dear Editor,

I noticed an interesting commonality that is seen in Mar 15 issue and that is human error. Having acknowledged the mistake of using the wrong name of the police officer and promising to beef up copy editing, the date is wrong (Mar. 15 2015). The fallibility of mankind is evident all around us. In the Bible, Romans 3:23 says, “For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. We are all in error with no way to redeem ourselves as we are born into sin. Only God can save us from our impending doom, only He. God came and dwelt amongst us and He is Jesus the Christ, our Lord, our God, our Savior.” Jesus said, “For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Receive Jesus is to receive Life.”

While we have you ...

... if you appreciate that access to the news, opinion, humor, entertainment and cultural reporting in the Sandpoint Reader is freely available in our print newspaper as well as here on our website, we have a favor to ask. The Reader is locally owned and free of the large corporate, big-money influence that affects so much of the media today. We're supported entirely by our valued advertisers and readers. We're committed to continued free access to our paper and our website here with NO PAYWALL - period. But of course, it does cost money to produce the Reader. If you're a reader who appreciates the value of an independent, local news source, we hope you'll consider a voluntary contribution. You can help support the Reader for as little as $1.

You can contribute at either Paypal or Patreon.
