Vote For GA resolution Protection Of Apostates
Resolution Analysis
Overview
This proposal seeks to protect those who renounce their religions from retaliation, and to ensure those who wish to renounce their religions are not prevented from doing so.
Recommendation
This proposal would serve as a fine addition to the WA's existing body of law protecting personal freedom by protecting apostates from persecution in the name of religion. At the same time, the proposal's provisions are tempered by reasonable exceptions, such as allowing religious institutions to bar apostates from employment in relevant faith-based positions and permitting reasonable conversation to convince members of religions to remain faithful.
For these reasons, the Ministry of World Assembly Affairs recommends voting For the at-vote General Assembly proposal, "Protection of Apostates".
