Stupid. If you're an atheist or agnostic, let them know.
It's actually a pretty important part of the form. If you don't belong belong to any organised spiritual religion and consider yourself atheist, let them know
The Atheist foundation actually encourage you not to write atheist, as atheism isn't a religion. They'd prefer people simply to check 'no religion'. I had a link to the media release about it, but it seems like the site is down at the moment.
How exactly does one believe in AFL football?
I mean I believe it exists, but at the end of the day it is no more than two groups of 22 men chasing after an inflated leather ball for a couple of hours. A distraction and entertainment, but hardly a system of belief.
as a freo fan i see your reason for lack of faith
Thats all very well, but just don't complain when a Mosque/Church/Synagogue is built in your street because of the skewed results.
Yeah like that's how it works...
The Imams of Melbourne get together and say where should we put a new mosque?
I'm sure they wouldn't talk to any people who currently attend a mosque and travel a bit.
No... they'll wait until the census results come out and ask the Government where they should put one because of census results.
Love to, but I am already a Jedi, sorry.
In response to on going questions about the AFA's Census Campaign, President David Nicholls has released the following statement on the issue of answering 'Jedi':
“It was a wonderful display of anti-religious sentiment when thousands of people wrote ‘Jedi’ in a previous Census. It was very funny but unfortunately, that joke is over. Writing ‘Jedi’ on the Census is now recorded by the Bureau as ‘Not defined’. Writing ‘Jedi’, in fact, helps religion have greater numbers than ‘No religion’. If you wish to help in controlling the interference of religion in Australian politics, mark the ‘No religion’ box. We don’t get many chances at doing something positive, don’t waste this one."
