Re: Christians told to treat atheists and agnostics with "deep esteem"
As a confirmed atheist myself its good to hear a prominent voice from the religious community encouraging respect for anyone outside of their own religion. The archbishop mentioning respect for atheist's puts me in mind of that quote George H Bush made, "atheist's are neither citizens or patriots", that's one thing I do prefer about our election system, religion on the whole is kept out of politics, where as in the US in some debates you'd think they were electing a vicar not a president.
