Let's say it's true, but it's more serious than that.

 

A senior official wants to confiscate the religious benefits we enjoy. It's a tax issue, of course, but not only. Why ? I quote: "The Prefect is mainly opposed to our choice, based on the Bible, to spend as little time as possible with people who have been expelled from the assembly or who have voluntarily withdrawn."


More serious : He also accuses us of disturbing public order, which is another way of criminalizing us. We are therefore encouraged to send this Prefect a sworn statement, starting next week, if I don't make a mistake.
