In the current issue of the monthly free newspaper 'Alive' there is a side bar on a piece on atheists. If you give it a quick glance you see the words, 'atheists are losers'.
What sort of mentality can write such words? It is painful and sad that there is any link between this newspaper and the Dominican Order.

Alive is a triumphalist redtop rag. It is certainly a shame that it is in any way associated with the Order of Preachers.
I understand a complaint was made to the head of the Dominicans at the Priory and he said that, while he did not agree with the publication, unfortunately, he could do nothing about it.
I read it on the odd occasion I find myself inside a church building that stocks it.
There was a period when my local library had a pile of them on the table but a stop was soon put to that.
