This letter appears in today's Leicester Mercury:
Will we outgrown need for faith?
I am not sure how David Adams (Mailbox, July 31) and Gordon Newton (August 25) came to conclude that I regard religious belief as "absurd" ( their word, not mine).
A main point of my letter was to deplore this sort of easy labelling.It would be foolish indeed to deny the historical influence of religion over individuals and groups.
I argued it was an inevitable and understandable phase in human development, but with increased awareness of our existence will play a diminishing role.
