SIR: Surely whenever any religion allows its fanatical believers to resort to acts of terrorism to further their fanaticism it doesn't say much for that religion.
The greater dangers to the whole of the Western World and its religious cultural beliefs have slowly been taking shape for some many years now. Many young people have wrongly become involved in Islamic beliefs in Britain.
I say wrongly because it contradicts our religions heritage!
There again our history reminds us of post religious conflicts. There are that many beliefs, sects and cults in this world - it's like selling sweets!
But the anti-Western elements in the Islamic World are not something we should consider like a bag of humbugs! Perhaps humbugs is the operative word. You can choke of them!
However, people are free to worship whatever they choose!
What time's the next bus to Stonehenge!!
