Sorry I hope this is the right place to post this.

I am just a little upset/angry/confused after receiving a forwarded e-mailfrom my mum. Here is what it said.

IMPORTANT
AUSTRALIA WILL BE HOLDING A CENSUS IN AUGUST
DO NOT LEAVE THE “RELIGION” SECTION BLANK. BE SURE TO AT LEAST TICK CHRISTIAN (OR YOUR UPBRINGING FAITH).
1,000,000 MUSLIMS WILL TICK THEIR BOX.
10,000,000 AUSTRALIANS WILL LEAVE IT BLANK THEN WONDER WHY A MOSQUE IS BUILT IN THEIR NEIGHBOURHOOD!!!
PASS THIS ON TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS.

Now I am not religious but things like this really p me off!! I'm so over these judgements being made towards groups just because of lack of understanding. Not just religious groups but any type of 'minority'. Why wouldn't I want a mosque in my neighbourhood? We have a christian church around the corner, does that mean I should start complaining about that because it's not my chosen religion!?

I don't really know what I want to achieve by posting this, I just needed to get it off my chest. I think it's bothering me more than normal because it came from my mum
