30 January 1995
I am writing to express my views as a committed
Christian and concerned citizen concerning principles that should be upheld in
the
new constitution.
I am In support of freedom of speech, particularly
in the areas of anti-racialism and freedom of religion. However, I do not
consider
the right to print, write, broadcast or import violent or pornographic
materials to be included in the right of freedom of speech.
Such practices are
harmful as they cause violent and sexually abusive behaviour, and they should be
censored.
I am opposed to the legalisation of homosexual marriages, and
the legalisation of homosexual couples adopting children. Each adoptive
child
has the right to both a mother and a father.
I firmly believe that the
right to life should be protected from conception, and I am thus opposed to
abortion on demand and a woman's
so-called "right to choice".
I believe
in an economic policy of laissez-faire to promote an entrepreneurial spirit,
bringing economic growth. I also believe that
the government should address
racial inequalities by providing equal educational and employment opportunities.
Large-scale public
works projects and training in areas such as primary health
care and infant nutrition need to be implemented.
