Open Letter to the Minister For Education. Hon. James Marabe MP
Dear Minister, Strengthen Science in Our Schools to Address Religious Bigotry. Since the action taken by the Speaker to remove the work of Art that graced our Parliament, I have tried to rationalised his behaviour and that of a large number of our Population including members of parliament that support him and have come to the conclusion that his action is grounded in the real fear of the supernatural and it is a fear shared by a large part of our Populace and reflects the lack of a basic scientific understanding of causes and effect that influence the natural world we live in. It is the same fear that leads illiterate villagers to burn their womenfolk for belief in sorcery and leads to unnecessary tribal fights where sorcery is belief to be the cause of death. I have listen to you articulate and speak in the past on major issues that confront our young Nation and would like to think that among the chaos that surround us today you will emerge as the rational voice of the future
