Letter: Priest was misguided
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.MAY I register my revulsion at the actions of the priest who, arriving at the scene of godless butchery (The murders in Northern Ireland of Philip Allen and Damien Trainor, report, 5 March), "administered the last rites" to one party but only "prayed with" the other and, worse, seems proud of his contribution to a happy, balanced, mixed-religion community. Will no one rid us of such bigots?
