Message | In regard to Article 1, we would support evangelism. However, the other proposals lean too far in favour of religion and disrupt the equilibrium. Tax exemptions for religious groups are unfair for workers and industry and we feel there should be a division between secular and religious schools to provide people with a choice. |
