Sir: Richard Dawkins ("Who needs a euphemism for Christmas?", 19 December) asks, "Have you ever met an uneducated atheist?" I must report that I have.

The occasion was at a shopping centre. Present also were carol singers from a local church. This prompted the following remark: "Blimey, some people will try to get religion into everything. They're now trying to get it into Christmas."
