it’s refreshing to listen to the voice of such a staunch eloquent atheist being applied to religious dogma and doggerel and the very real harm it has caused to the expression of love in all it’s infinite variety.   It’s the first time in a long time when I’ve  thought ‘you deserved that you sanctimonious  worm’ at the inevitable nasty end of one of the protagonists. I felt for Vithobai’s betrayal.
