- Notes
- "I found the article 'Why don't we use the "P" word ?' (Apr. 2011, p. 5) interesting. But I must agree to Easter being called Easter although it's apparent that the spiritual practices of Christian societies everywhere include both indigenous and Christian elements. The article also mentioned that hot cross buns were banned because they might offend non-Christians. This was not likely the work of Muslims or Hindus living in England but of atheists. Atheism is just as responsible for the destruction of culture as some religions". [Text of entire article.]
