Excerpt:
A priest has just rung me, furious. He's heard that a celebration of the birth of Mohammed was apparently held today in the chapel of Newman University College, Birmingham - a Catholic foundation named in honour of Cardinal Newman.
I can't reach the organisers, but the Facebook post above (hastily removed tonight) confirms that the college's Islamic society planned an event in the chapel, not a meeting room. "I don't know if the Blessed Sacrament was present, but in any case this is outrageous," says the priest.
