Would they like interference in their sexual & religious lives as immigrant ancestry Australians?

Religious freedom review: Gay kids could be rejected from schools'To some school communities, cultivating an environment and ethos which conforms to their religious beliefs is of paramount importance,' the leaked segment of the report reads. 1: Doesn't sound like a ringing endorsement. 2: Schools are for education not indoctrination. Any opposition to this is just covert islamophobia, tbh. So, effectively we are turning the clock of social rights and equality back by at least 50yrs. Religion does not Govern the Nation.
