| Message | Not at all, if anything it promotes freedom of religion by giving the young the chance to choose how to lead their lives and along which spiritual paths. Sticking them in indoctrination centers is not freedom. |

| Random fact: Party candidates for head of state elections are not visible to the public. This means that you cannot see who will run and who will not, which adds another strategic element to the elections. |
