Letter-writer in National Secular Society mailout says Bulger killers went to a Church of England school where they were ‘fed violent Bible stories’.

Barbara Smoker has written an open letter to the National Secular Society as follows:

In all the media coverage on the character of John Venables [one of the murderers of Jamie Bulger] I have yet to read or hear any mention of the fact that he and his co-murderer were, at the time of their horrific crime in 1993, attending a CofE primary school where, instead of receiving moral education, they were fed violent, vindictive bible stories.

What a despicable and unfounded comment and yet the NSS felt happy to include this in their e-mailshot.
