| "Left" and "Right"
Post Letter to the Editor - Mar 02 2014
by Post Editor : letters@portervillepost.com

Dear Editor, Here's a little Bible study for your readers. Remember what Jesus said to the 'Goats on the left, sheep on the right'. And to Peter, 'if you want to catch fish do it from the RIGHT side of the boat. They did and filled the boat.

Now, for the origin of Left & Right ... I have often wondered why it is that Conservatives are called the "RIGHT" and Liberals are called the "left".

By chance I stumbled upon this verse in the Bible: "The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left." Ecclesiastes 10:2 (NIV) Thus sayeth the Lord. Amen.

Can't get any simpler than that.

And how about a little Spelling Lesson ?

The last four letters in American ... I Can

The last four letters in Republican ... I Can

The last four letters in Democrats ... Rats

End of lesson.

Test to follow in November 6, 2014.

Remember, November is to be set aside as rodent removal month.

Thanks ... Daniel Riles danielriles@hotmail.com from Porterville, CA.
