LGC 6.2: Recognition of the Separation of Church and State (PASSED)

[LAKISYLVANIA]

Is there a need to separate church by state. Secondly if there is wrongdoing in "the church" or any religion whatsoever, the state IMO should absolutely have a say on that. Religion is an aspect of life, and subject to policymaking IMO so i'm not sure if i believe in separation of church and state.

If we are deciding to separate church by state, i also believe that there should be no expenses to "religious institutions" as well. Secondly, I feel like whenever someone is not religious that those people should have the right to not have the church as a forced entity on their lives, meaning churches have no place in schools as well. If someone is religious, we need to respect that, but there are laws churches and religions should operate under and I want to defend the right that someone has to not be influenced by religion in their lives, meaning that if you go to school that you have no need to follow religious class or attend churches, extending that to every part of life.

As long this remains unclear, i'd probably vote nay.

LGC 6.2: Recogniton of the Seperation of Church and State

I. Introduction
This legislation is written for the purpose of recognizing the seperation of church and state.

II. Declaration
The government of Lincoln declares:

a.) The government of the Region of Lincoln shall not create legislation that is influenced by or incorporating religious texts whatsoever.

b.) All citizens of Lincoln are protected under law to practice any religion of their choosing, as the region of Lincoln protects these freedoms.

Does this also mean literally any religion, or is it clarified which religions we are talking about. What is the status of religion in Lincoln? Does Lincoln have official religions and religions that are accepted, and which are these?

At what point do we start differ between religions and cults, and between religions and ideologies. Are religions like scientology protected under this law. Are ideologies like nazism protected by these law, if these people can make a claim nazism/white supremacy is a religion? (which in my view it is not, but let's clarify these). What is the status of pagan religions in Lincoln?
