Correspondence on Unitarian Exclusion from Revision Committee
A letter questions Convocation’s push to bar Dr. Vance Smith from the Revision Committee citing bigotry by Winchester and Gloucester bishops and urging Nonconformists to uphold liberty and scholarly integrity in biblical revision. It condemns excluding a scholar over religious belief and defends collegial inquiry in sacred text work. The writer warns this stance harms public confidence and religious equality.
