I think since you stated that it was a local paper that the residents of that sector are well aware that the good reverend is deceased. Maybe by continuing to print the column it is the papers way of honoring his memory. Move on trebor, as atheists we have bigger fish to fry.
I agree that there is no point in pursuing the issue with the local paper.
I do not agree that our local residents know that the rev. is dead, as he has no connection with this area, and lived about 150 miles away in N.Wales (a long way in the UK). His article was plucked from his web page.
I want to ask about the bigger fish you refer to? It is not within my power to address The Archbishop of Canterbury. I might be able to make a difference though at the local level, by writing letters to my local newspaper (though it is increasingly unlikely they would print them).
Thanks to you and everyone for the input, it is very helpful in sorting out my own ideas
