Letter: Challenges to faith and atheism on the streets of the Holy City

Sir: Polly Toynbee cannot get away with defining liberalism to mean the same as the atheist secularism she openly avows .

There are plenty of Christian liberals who understand and seek to practise their faith in ways which repudiate the fundamentalism and fanaticism Ms Toynbee projects on to them as primary characteristics. Bigotry is not only for believers.
