Version 0 of 1.

All that Giles Fraser (The world is getting more religious, because the poor get God, 27 May) has managed to say in 700 words is that religion is indeed the opium of the masses and sadly, in an increasingly unequal world, people will turn to myth and superstition to comfort them in their impotence to do anything about it.Jan WiczkowskiManchester

• The death and resurrection of Christ is the cornerstone of the Christian faith. If the Rev Adrian Alker (Letters, 28 May) has a problem with this then he should stop calling himself Rev and get a proper job.Richard SweatmanBristol

• Re the articles about wealthy individuals and organisations using London homes purely as investments, what a good job it is that the Land Registry has not been privatised – yet. Otherwise this information may not have been so readily, or cheaply, available.Hazel AndersonAbergavenny, Monmouthshire

• Jonathan Jones writes, “Is that the Caravaggio diet – breastmilk for adults? It’s almost mad enough to become fashionable” (Feature, 28 May). I hate to break it to him, but adults have been drinking breastmilk for hundreds of years – it’s just thatit’s intended for baby cows, not baby humans.Sally MillerHorsham, West Sussex

• Further to the correspondence about the proposed change of name of Titty Walker in the forthcoming adaptation of Arthur Ransome’s Swallows and Amazons, in the 1962 BBC adaptation Susan George played Titty and the character’s name was, indeed, bowdlerised to “Kitty” (Letters, 27 May).Nick SpokesIlford, Essex

• Roger being interpreted as meaning something other than someone’s name (Letters, 28 May) rather depends on one’s sensibilities. A memorable opening sequence of The Simpsons showed Bart writing repeatedly on a blackboard: “Pork is not a verb.”Bill HawkesCanterbury
