Keeping religion out of politics

#1 Post by Alan H » July 5th, 2014, 8:44 pm

Maybe we need this here?

Morocco prevents religious leaders from participating in politics
The king of Morocco has signed a royal decree preventing the country’s religious leaders from participating in any form of political activity.

King Mohammed VI’s decree prevents religious leaders, imams and preachers from taking a public political stance and aims to curb against religious leaders “disturbing the peace.”

The decree called on all those who work in Morocco’s religious institutions to display “characteristics of poise, righteousness and prowess,” and prevents them from “practicing any activity” that seeks financial gain in the public and private sectors “unless there’s a written license form the government.”

There are three fundamental questions for anyone advocating Brexit:

1. What, precisely, are the significant and tangible benefits of leaving the EU?
2. What damage to the UK and its citizens is an acceptable price to pay for those benefits?
3. Which ruling of the ECJ is most persuasive of the need to leave its jurisdiction?

Plus another to keep any member of the royal family out of involvement in politics in any way, form or level?
