Credulous

From Christopher Leadbeater

Sir: Mark Steyn writes of ‘fraudulent stories about the Koran being flushed down a toilet’ and then goes on to repeat the incredible US claim as to how urine came to be on a copy of the Koran (‘Piss and wind’, 11 June). Can there be anyone else in the world who believes such rubbish? What it must be to have such faith!
