Details

Status[?]: passed
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: February 3301
Description[?]:
| "Cobura has always been a highly secularised nation and its legislation should reflect this fact. 1. Religions are businesses and should be treated as such. 2. Religion and education should be kept separate. Children are at school to learn, not to be indoctrinated with nonsense. 3. Teacher-led prayers are a violation of individual liberty. If an individual wishes to pray they can do so of of their own accord. Furthermore, as mentioned with regards to article 2, children are at school to learn, not be indoctrinated with incoherent mumbo jumbo." - Tanja Huntington, RPC Leader |
