Bill: Withdraw from the Convention on Religious Liberties Proposal of 3129
Details
Submitted by[?]: Vereinigt Dorvik
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This bill proposes the withdrawal from a treaty. It will require half of the legislature to vote in favor[?]. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: November 3129
Description[?]:
Mr Speaker, Vereinigt Dorvik finds this treaty incredible as this does not allow us to determine our own way with regards to how religion operates in Volksrepublik Dorvik. Our people are increasingly secular, and we do not believe that religions should be able to promote themselves as corporations. Not only that, we find the commercialisation of religion offensive as religion should be a private matter, not one that we should allow some citizens to act as if they are able to point others to "the way" and then condemn others. Put simply, religion encourages hate and we find the current laws unsuitable to the needs of our nation. |

Message | Mr. Speaker, Religions does not encourage hate anymore than other philosophies like nationalism or atheism. However, the Chrislich Partai is willing to stibulate that certain philosophies attempt to cloak themselves as religions, but have no basis in reality. Christianity does have basis in reality and the whole universe can be understood through that philosophy. As this stands, no one can maintain that religion is just a private matter and therefore the Christlich Partai cannot support it, not until the facts of the matter has been straighten out to all honorable members here. |
