Letter: Proud of our rave in the nave
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.Sir: One is saddened by the charges of intellectual dishonesty levelled at a fellow Christian by the Rev Guy A Davies ("Misguided liberal gloss on the Bible", Letters, 12 February). Mr Davies refers to the substitutionary death of Christ as if it is the only interpretation of this event which is valid.
Many Christians who do not share Mr Davies' more dogmatic views nevertheless have had their lives enhanced, given purpose, even transformed by accepting initially the hypothesis that God (however he/she is described) uniquely expressed "himself" in Jesus and took the initiative in making possible harmony between God and humankind, harmony within ourselves and harmony between people. Mr Davies, please do not write us off as dishonest.
