Re: God is knowable, (Times, October 12).
It looks as if Mr Rosieur’s “knowable God” is probably Christian, although it could also be Jewish if his reference to the Bible is correct.
But then what about all the other Gods in common use around the world – since they, too, are all a human construct? Does he also find them to be “knowable”?
I speculate too if your correspondent sometimes wonders if his God may not be male but – heaven forbid – female? It is of course nice for him to derive comfort from his patronising knowledge, but the shame is that he seems to be unable to accept that other people might prefer one of the other Gods that are available.
