I found the caricature of our spiritual leader Bishop Mario Grech published in The Sunday Times of November 7 deeply offensive, and I am sure the majority of Catholics in this country did too.

Does your paper no longer uphold moral values, as it did in the past? I never expected The Sunday Times to stoop so low , and attack our spritual leader in that manner. This was an insult to your readers.

Our spiritual leaders are there to show us how to carry out Christ’s teachings. Christ’s ‘programme’, unlike that of political parties, never changes.

Nobody is forced to follow it, but then those who do should not be ridiculed or marginalised.

I urge all Maltese and Gozitans who have the Church of Christ at heart not to succumb to the pressures of today’s consumerist, secularised society. Our spiritual leaders should be supported, not ridiculed.

Editor's note: A cartoon is comment by the individual cartoonist, not by the newspaper.
