Bill: Religious Sanity Bill
Details
Submitted by[?]: AM Populist Social Democrats
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.

Description[?]:
With religion being a form of insanity, we need to treat the causes of it. We should not outlaw its very practice, as there is no need to oppress anyone for being insane; however, we need to limit its corrupting influence on our nation to the extent we can. This includes, of course, the puritanically religious ban on public nudity. |

Random fact: Players have a responsibility to differentiate between OOC (out-of-character) and IC (in-character) behaviour, and to make clear when they are communicating in OOC or IC terms. Since Particracy is a role-playing game, IC excesses are generally fine, but OOC attacks are not. However, players must not presume this convention permits them to harass a player with IC remarks that have a clear OOC context. |
