Rot-stopping

Sir: May I congratulate Mr Kenneth Hurren on being one of the very few to stop the rot, not for the first time, but now on that infiltration of sanctimonious affectation which links Christianity with homosexual orgasms, the elevation of the Host with the erection of a homosexual, the ecstasies of the Second Coming with one of M. Genet's, so notably propounded by Mr Harold Hobson who increasingly becomes so obscenely ridiculous as to seem to be parodying himself? Henry Adler 3 Roland Gardens, London SW7
