Let’s not poison God’s creation

Dear Editor

I would like to reply to the clergyman who called me to task in your Jan. 4 issue. Jesus tells us, “Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and behold a beam is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye and then thou shall see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.”

As to the issue of Hydro-fracking: it is public record that the firms doing this in Pennsylvania have been fined millions of dollars by the state for poisoning God’s creation.

Sincerely,

George L. Penney
