On the one hand, that term is pretty silly. Lawyers should know the rules and the law, shouldn't they? Anyways, this is regarding that idiotic headline that says that everyone in Malaysia should be religious/and or believe in God.
Lawyers have come out and said that no, that particular minister whose name I cannot be bothered to remember is talking out of his ass. Freedom of religion includes the freedom not to be religious according to them and that this particular deputy minister should leave the rules interpreting to them.
So yeah, good news to everyone who wants to believe in no gods (including Buddhism, because let's face it, Buddhism has no deity in their teachings). For my part, I'll stick to having to decide between the Church of Gadget Hackwrench and the Church of Mizuki Nana. Mmmmm...
