On Thursday in the Sejm, the first reading of the civilian draft amendment of the Criminal Code, submitted by Solidarna Poland, took place. This task entered the Sejm in the erstwhile term, but was not then completed. Matthew Wagemann presented it again. As he stressed, the fresh regulations are intended to aid defend spiritual freedom.
Hard and hard times for Christians are coming – he said.
The task envisages the introduction of a fresh Article 27a into the Criminal Code and changes in Articles 195 and 196. The introduction of Article 27a is intended to guarantee the protection of freedom of expression of their spiritual beliefs and related ethical, moral and social views.
The changes in Article 195 aim to more effectively prosecute and punish those disrupting mourning and services. The provisions on images of spiritual sentiments and disturbances of spiritual ceremonies are besides vague and lead to a blurring of work and do not include certain behaviour.
KO and Left definitely about the project
The first reading of the citizen's draft amendment to the Criminal Code has sparked quite a few controversy in the Sejm.
It's 1 large scam. It's hard to call this task civic. He will be followed by members of the far right said Karolina Pawliczak from the Civic Coalition.
Wanda Nowicka, presenting the position of the Left, described the task as misleading, and its creators called it fanatics. There is no institution in Poland that would be better than the Catholic Church - She assessed.
Mr Marcin Józefaciuk, associate of the Civic Coalition, spoke most clearly about the proposed changes to the Criminal Code. According to him, they aim to introduce a ecclesiastical state with a ‘back door’ and may lead to discrimination against non-believers, who have another values or another religion.
Religion is like a certain male organ. He's beautiful cool erstwhile individual has him and he's arrogant of him. But if individual pulls him out and waves him in the face, we already have a problem. said Józefaciuk.
Christians in Poland request a peculiar law on the defence of Christians, due to the fact that they are constantly relentlessly attacked. * For @pawelglinskipic.twitter.com/CVEvJxXrqg
