| Message | This discriminates against religious missionaries compared other visitors. No way. |

| Message | Indeed. There is no law saying that one CANNOT register with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Besides having to define "missionary" (ie is it someone affiliated with a church as a missionary or someone who happens to want to spread the word of their God), we'd reather not take punitive measures on missionaries who forget to register and are otherwise law abiding visitors. |
