Letter: Spirit of Diana
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Sir: No one wants to sponsor the religion section of the Millennium Dome. I take this as heartening news that there are still limits on the commercialisation of life in Britain. But it could also be a strong indicator of the flaw in the materialist system to which our society adheres. We can deliver the goods, but are bankrupt spiritually.
An empty room for the Spirit Section would be perfect and potent symbol of the spiritual vacuity of our culture. No room for the Spirit would be an even stronger sign of how far we have progressed, especially as the calendar whose second millennium we are marking started with no room at the inn for the birth of Christ.
