Letters and Opinions

These are opinion pieces that I have had published in a variety of newspapers and magazines. I have been writing letters-to-the-editor since 2006, and have had over 160 published since then. I also play guitar and sing in a musical revue called The Loser's Lounge. With a cast of guest singers, we perform tributes to great songwriters and bands. The show is in its 24th year, and we perform at Joe's Pub - The Public Theater and Lincoln Center in New York City.

*****

I am an atheist, and I am very disappointed in the group American Atheists for opposing the inclusion of a surviving section of beams in a 9/11 museum because the structure has been associated with a Christian cross. This remnant was not constructed to be a religious symbol and is in fact an appropriate document of the tragedy and the reactions it caused. Unfortunately, in choosing this battle, the members of American Atheists seem, ironically, more like religious extremists.
