Thank you for your article (on spanking, Sept. 24).

I do have to have to point out that there was no yelling at the church though. I asked people if they would like more Christian child rearing information and one of the other protesters said that Jesus wouldn't hit, but we didn't yell nor did the church parishioners.

I do admit there were some pretty rude comments and at one time there was a brief verbal exchange, but most of the yelling came from passersby who honked and yelled their support.
