Removal of Bible from Trinity college crest ‘correctness gone mad’

From Ireland-

Senior church graduates of Trinity College, Dublin have reacted with disappointment and anger at the college’s decision to remove the Bible from its official insignia, in a new branding initiative.

The eminent institution, founded in 1592 by Queen Elizabeth I as the College of the Holy and Undivided Trinity, is taking religious symbolism out of its official crest.

The Bible is being replaced with “an open book” in what is described as “a deliberate and symbolic change”.

Trinity graduate, the Rev Dr William Morton, Dean of Londonderry’s St Columb’s Church of Ireland cathedral, said it was “political correctness gone totally mad”.
