A 'confusion of categories'

Dear Editor,

Last year, I wrote an article, for en's website, titled Should we ban public displays of non-Christian faiths? (see article here). I am grateful for the recent effort at engagement from Michael Reade in his article In defence of Christian nationalism (see article here).

I am a Baptist, and wrote from convictions that I believe are Scriptural, and are consistent with the early English Baptist articulation of Biblical faith and practice. Reade is, I believe, a Presbyterian. His article is consistent with his convictions, as I understand them.
