From The Rev Dr T. Ambrose

Sir: Sister Millicent Olga should know better than to describe God as a vegetarian (Letters, 21 November). Abel, the shepherd, was preferred to Cain, the tiller of the soil. And when God came to dinner, Abraham killed the fatted calf (Genesis 18:7).

The picture of the Holy Trinity waiting for dinner (the icon of the Trinity) is world famous.

Yours faithfully,

T. Ambrose
