The Atheist Alliance International Atheist Census is finally stable enough to allow normal operations once more. As their media release states:
Executive Summary
Issue's brought up included:
- What do atheists believe?
- To form an officially recognised body.
- What are our goals?
- How do we make our case to convince the majority to support the organisation?
- The need to change the mindset of the current political climate where each party challenges one another to more fundamental values to one where each party strives for progressive values.
- The current system of gifting privileges to Islam that results in social inequality.
- The recent bill passed in Kedah that places a religious body above the judiciary.
We hereby declare our support for the gathering that is to take place on the 28th of April under the BERSIH 3.0 banner, for free and fair elections. Although this site is devoted to issues of secularism and religious influence in Malaysia, the need for electoral reform affects us all - where even the possibility of not discriminating against a person's religious beliefs in the election of our leaders should be seized upon.
