Such propositions will never have the support of my party. Corinna Diefenthal, Spokesperson on Education and Culture |

| Message | The existing separation between the Church and state is adequate for securing the liberties of our population. I draw attention especially to the problem with discriminating against religion in general- what constitutes a religion? A autocratically-minded government might see it fit to classify some ideologies as religions. After all, there is little difference. Theresa Lakton, Minister for Education and Culture |
