Bill: An official religion for Likatonia
Details
Submitted by[?]: Likaton Fascist Front
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: August 2173
Description[?]:
| There has been considerable debate about a religion for Likatonia. As such, TOTAL is moving this proposal straight to voting. This is a moderate 'recognition' bill - which TOTAL hopes that most parties can see as a compromise. We beleive that, as large (and growing) part of Likatonia identify as being adherents of the 'Tears of Termani' religion it is only fair that it be recognised. If we can recognise national football clubs, chess clubs, commercial organisations why should we NOT recognise something as important as a national religion ? We ask for the 'Tears of Termani' to be recognised as the official religion of Likatonia. |

| Message | TOTAL catagorically states that there will be no pressure under this legislation to join a religion. |

| Message | The AAS sees this as a potential wedge. We are a little anxious that the ToTAL is just uing this as back-door legislation to force a compulsary state-religion... On the other hand.... Absalom ben Adamah seems to be something of a stabilising factor in the ToTAL right now (although his past has been somewhat less sympathetic)... For the time being, the AAS will support VOLUNTARY membership of a state religion. |

| Message | We thank the AAS for the their unexpected support. |
| Date | 05:24:20, January 20, 2006 CET | From | Commonwealth Workers Army | To | Debating the An official religion for Likatonia |
| Message | It is voluntary... and, to be honest... despite recent 'problems' between the AAS and ToTAL... it is NOT the Tears of Termani that has us worried, on the religious battlefield. |
