To whom it may concern,
The purpose of this communication, on behalf of Mr. Patrick Gaffiero, is to make reference to a relatively recent article published by your good selves on the thirtieth (30th) of April of this year two thousand and twenty-three (2023), entitled ‘PBS under fire again after interview promoting Luciferianism’.
The contents of this article make reference to an interview conducted in the PBS program ‘T13TTAX’, whereby it was reported that a certain Father Joe Borg, in this regard, wrote “TVM first had an interview with someone praising Hitler, now an interview in favor of Lucifer”.
In this regard, it could be interpreted that Father Joe Borg is equating Luciferianism with Nazism. To this effect, the offices of the Church of Lucifer have drafted a reply here attached. It goes without saying that in a functioning democracy, once any opinion whatsoever is written and directed at an individual and/or a group/community, said individual/group/community have a right of reply.
By the very precepts of freedom of speech, press, opinion, religious thought and conscience, it would be naturally decent for the same portal that has published the above-mentioned article (in this case, Malta Independent) to publish the right of reply. In that way, Malta Independent would certainly safeguard its reputation as a highly professional, unbiased and fair news/opinion portal to its Maltese and international readership.
On behalf of the Church of Lucifer worldwide, we thank you in advance for accepting our right of reply, and we would also like to thank you for generating public interest in our cause.
