It is times like these where I truly begin to thank my parents for the upbringing I’ve had. My parents did not teach me that stealing, lying, cheating, cursing and killing were bad because the Bible told them; it was never mentioned. Rather, my parents taught me that it was common sense that these actions [...]
Some who value the separation of Church and State are nonbelievers, while others are Christians. Claiming that “atheists are attacking Christians’ rights” is a stereotype. To continue in this paranoid persecution complex does not bring people together. It is a divisive “us vs. them” mentality. We need unity, not disunity. Speaking of unity, the original [...]
First off, let me begin by congratulating Mr. Anderson — it has been many years since someone has so disturbed my mental faculties that I have had to respond to their written work in a public article. As an agnostic, I often try to stay out of these debates, but you, sir, are so far [...]
We are convinced that Rush Limbaugh is the real inspiration behind Keith Fierro’s “truth.” How embarrassing. As politically aware men and women at Cal State Fullerton, we are extremely worried.

It is obvious our education system is failing us if this type of ignorant and sexist rhetoric is what is floating around college campuses. [...]
Despite the flood of comments, letters to the editor and public displays of opinions on an opinion piece, I strongly stand by publishing “A ‘Fluke’ in this situation.” What was stated in Keith Fierro’s article does not reflect the views of the Daily Titan, its editors and myself. At the Daily Titan, the opinion section [...]
There has been a lot of discussion over the recent events surrounding Sandra Fluke and women’s access to healthcare. We felt it necessary to distinguish fact from fiction, particularly after reading Keith Fierro’s article. While we can certainly understand how an issue as contentious as this one can cause a debate to be heated, we [...]
This letter is in response to the recently published opinion article by Keith Fierro regarding birth control. As a woman, and especially as a woman taking birth control for reasons other than engaging in safe sex, I found this piece highly offensive. It was poorly written and contained many unnecessary passive-aggressive attacks. As a journalism [...]
