Sir, - We have benefited recently from articles examining how the fundamentalist attitudes and activities of Osama bin Laden et al. diverge from the core teachings of Islam. Perhaps a similar effort could be made on behalf of Christianity? Just in case Muslims assume that the willingness of "Christian" nations to go to war is in any way reflective of the core teachings of Christ. - Yours, etc.,
