Sir, - In his response to Professor McAleese's comments on integrated education, Dr Philip McGarry is guilty of that age old trick of conjuring up assertions that were never made. Professor McAleese never suggested that it was "dangerous for Catholic and Protestant children to be educated together".
What she did say is that it was dangerous to insist that they should be educated together (emphasis added). This, of course, is a very different proposition and one which affords no grounds for the offensive which Dr McGarry proceeded to launch against Professor McAleese. - Yours, etc.,
Newgarden,
