WHY MOCK THOSE WHO DO BELIEVE?

This letter appears in today's Leicester Mercury:
Why mock those who do believe?
Jobee's attack on bishops ("Remove Bishops from the Lords", Mailbox, April 8), while purporting to be a product of his "lucid mind" (his words, not mine), only managed to display an unhealthy contempt for all things non-secular.
His lucidity was only surpassed by his complete misunderstanding of the difference between poetry and doggerel.
The real question is: why do some secularists and atheists find it necessary to mock religion? Could it be they are unhappy living in their godless world?
Lewis Dunkley, Wigston Fields
