Description[?]:
Sphynxinan Law on Religion Senators, It is the belief of this government that, contrary to what was said by the previous executive, religion is not something that defines us as a society. It is true that, in antiquity, this is how it worked, but we must move forward. Our nation already has laws that protect against the crime of incitement to hatred or discrimination and therefore, it does not make any sense that there is a specific one in the sense of religion insofar as this conflicts with the right to the free expression of our citizens. Religion, like everything else in a modern and democratic society, can and should be subject to criticism, and therefore, punish all those who think differently but who simply express it, without at any time to belittle other citizens who do agree with their religious dogmas should not be a crime.
