Dear Editor, Now that Kate Middleton has been confirmed in the Church Of England could she please answer the following questions:

How could anyone born in the 20th century come to believe that Jesus was actually born of a virgin?

What process of ratiocination delivered the necessary facts about a Galilean woman’s sexual history?

It is quite obvious that Kate has nothing to go on but that book of Iron Age philosophy entitled the Bible.

Is there any doubt that a lone subscriber to Christian beliefs would be considered mad? When a multitude of people hold these beliefs we consider them “religious”.

When a member of the religious multitude marries a rich young Prince we consider her to be royalty.
