Church guilty of sin of omission

Surely there are few things that move people to righteous indignation more than religion and punctuation. Put 'em together and whaddaya got? Here's a letter from today's Mercury Mailbox.
Church guilty of sin of omission

Your newspaper is to be commended for giving St Martin the apostrophe that is his due in the article "Church helping to bring in visitors" (Mercury, March 19).

Not so the cathedral authorities whose "corporate decision" it was apparently to approve its removal and name the new building "St Martins".

What next – St Marys, St Margarets, even, perish the thought, St Pauls Cathedral?
