| Message | Religious organisations do not engage in charity for altruistic purposes. They do it to spread their gospels, their superstitions, their lies. They also do it to hide funds from the state. Of course legitimate charitable giving should be supported but while trying to spread religious delusion this is questionably possible. We vote against. |
