Theme Committee 4 [1995] ZAConAsmRes 1146 (13 April 1995)

 


13 April 1995

Theme Committee 4

I want to thank you for giving us the opportunity for input to the new constitution through your advertisement in the Sunday Times of 9 April 1995.

I would like to grab hold of this opportunity in giving some input regarding Freedom of Religion:

I, as a Christian, want to request that the new constitution give us the freedom to serve the living God as He is revealed through the Bible. We believe that God has commanded us not to worship any other gods but Himself and we request that the new constitution allow us to be obedient to His command. Furthermore we request that we will have the freedom to teach our children, both publicly and privately, to love and obey God and to love their fellow man.

I would appreciate it if you would consider this whole matter very carefully and seriously. Thanks again in giving the public the opportunity for letting our voice be heard.
