Several recent letters have shown two sides of the Christian religion.

Readers T. Taylor, J. Diatta and A. Frodsham reflect the humourless, dogmatic, fear-inducing aspect. They want York Dungeon to abandon its Satan's Grotto feature, claiming lasting damage to children who go there.

Fortunately, K. Adams and S. & R. Taylor show the positive side of Christianity. They are involved with humanitarian organisations like Samaritan's Purse and Operation Christmas Child, but do not seek to impose their religious belief on anyone.

As an agnostic, I know which kind of Christianity I respect more.

I congratulate York Dungeon management on their inventive idea.
