Religious and political elite snubbed petition

I AGREE with Canon James Kelly (Letters, June 19) on the godless constitution proposed for the EU.

It is a pity though that during the gathering of a petition to include God in it, the following people refused to sign it: President Mary Mc Aleese, ex-Taoiseach Bertie Ahern, all government ministers, including new Taoiseach Brian Cowen; Enda Kenny and all FG TDs; Labour leader Eamon Gilmore and all his party’s TDs; the Greens, Sinn Féin, Independents — in fact every single TD in the Dáil.

Likewise all Irish Catholic bishops and MEPs (with the exception of ex-MEP Dana who organised the petition).
