I am sure Fr Joe Borg (The Sunday Times, July 18) means well when he writes: "Some say it's not right for the majority to decide on the need of the minority. This position implies a very cynical attitude towards voters. It implies that people are not at all principled; it implies that they do not care about others. I do not share this cynical attitude. People's sense of fairness and justice would make them reflect on the needs of others..."

All well and good; the only thing is that I don't see Fr Borg speaking up with the same logic should the majority vote against divorce.
