“We support this proposal”
Law on Religious Reform in Education of 2023
Rationale
For centuries, religion was a major pillar in the lives of the world's men and women. Yet, we have made phenomenal progress since then. While religion still offers moral support, it can also prove highly obscurantist; we should allow our children to choose their own faith without interference.
