Message | There is religious freedom, and there are religious extremists. You can't have one without the other.......and one way of curbing fundamentalism, is by checking who's coming. Surely you would not allow Bin-Laden to preach, would you? |
Date | 19:19:38, January 19, 2006 CET | From | United Liberal Alliance | To | Debating the Religious Freedom Act |
Message | again we oppose this. People are aware of our position on this. We furthermore point out that whilst under UCA control, the Foreign Ministry has cleared all foreign missionaries for entry into Telamon. It is simply to prevent extremists from entering and to monitor those in the country over whom we may be concerned |
