Other views: Oil expo belongs in Minot

Oil expo belongs in Minot Don’t believe those who say the Williston Basin Petroleum Conference and Expo has grown too big to be hosted by Minot. We simply don’t believe it’s true. The event, scheduled for May 2-4, will be held at the Bismarck Civic Center. It has rotated between Minot, Bismarck and Regina, Sask., since 1993. It’s the fifth time the event will be held in Bismarck, while the conference has been in Minot four times and in Regina nine times.

Letter to the editor: Christian congregations will show love to all sinners

We are writing in response to Vern Bader’s letter on Feb. 5. Bader rebukes those who have the conviction and courage to speak God’s truth in love. Bader quoted his own words from one of his previous letters: “I firmly believe that anyone who has experienced the unconditional love of God cannot deny it to others.” However, Bader fails to understand that the best way we can love others is to warn them when they have turned from God and strayed from his will (Galatians 6:1-2 and James 5:19-20).

No football; Now what?

Seven months. Seven long, boring months. That’s how long it will be before meaningful football games are played again, and I tell you, it hurts just typing that. Each year in anticipation of football season ending, I fire up my Super Nintendo (also known as the NES) I purchased new at Fleet Farm in Fergus Falls, Minn., in 1990. The thing is nearly 20 years old, been through at least 5 moves, but still is going strong.
