Description[?]:
| The Crispian Plan for Culture, Religion and Education is being overseen by Arruns Crispian, the Minister of Education and Culture in the Etxeberria cabinet. It has many facets to it but is primarily designed with the secular nature of Kundrati in mind and with a desire to suppress sexually egregious content. In terms of religion, the bill allows religions to advertise and for foreign missionaries to enter the country, but only with government approval. This gives them greater freedom than they currently possess. It also outright bans religious schools, as we have determined they serve no additional purpose to government-funded schools or private schools, besides acting as a form of indoctrination. Religion should be something decided after careful study of available evidence and information, not something forced upon children when they are at their most intellectually vulnerable. We have also taken action to reduce the availability of pornography to children. We have restricted the legality of pornography to just adults, and also to ensure that sexually explicit content on televisions may only be shown during hours that very few children watch, although nudity, where appropriate, can be shown all day long. We have also banned violent or hardcore pornography from televisions. We are a progressive society, but there is progressivism and there is indecency. We suggest using other means than a television if violent or hardcore pornography is what you seek. |
