Oliver Kamm is our knight in shining armour

A long but worthy entry as no. 94 in this inexhaustible series comes from George Pitcher, religion editor of the Telegraph and an Anglican priest. Pitcher poses this non-puzzler on his Telegraph blog:

“But what the humourless and po-faced bozos of the BHA [British Humanist Association] and NSS [National Secular Society] have to get into their restricted imaginations is the answer to this question: Do adherents to a major faith have demonstrable, objective and tangible standards of behaviour towards others enshrined in their religious traditions, to which they can and should be expected to aspire because they are accountable to their divine authority, that are not so prescribed by secular authorities?”

You’ll find it hard to credit, but Pitcher answers “yes” to this strikingly witless question.
