Description[?]:
| Noting the positive works of religious organisations, their charitable contributions, their ethical teachings and their positive influence, the CSPP desires to see the changing of the tax code regarding religious organisations so that they can do their good work all the more easily. Acknowledging the rights of schools and parents to teach children how they see fit we also wish to see laws regarding school prayers in the hands of schools themselves. |
