Bill: Our Catholic and Freedom Faith Act!
Details
Submitted by[?]: Telamon National Party
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.
Voting deadline: August 2646
Description[?]:
| After internal consultation and communication with religious official of the Catholic Church we believe that to force people into the religion would go against the teaching of Our Lord Jesus Christ and that instead it should be a voluntary act. However we believe that the Catholic Church should play a bigger role in Telamon and support a state religion under the Catholic Faith. |
