From John Plotz
To describe your religion in 17 characters or less on the UK census form is a challenge (Letters, 23 April, p 28). Alan Charlton made do with “ScientificRealist” (17 characters), since “scientific realist” (18), as suggested by earlier correspondent Martin Hunt, was too long. Thank the good Lord I live in California, so I am not required to reveal my religion.
But since you asked, I call myself a “secular humorist” (16), which leaves one character for future expansion. I’d be interested to see what other readers come up with.
