As a nation with a Zoroastrian established religion, Farsestan would like to ask about the following point:
In GA #15, the Freedom of Marriage Act, it is said that: "No State shall restrict the right to enter into such unions to persons of a certain sex or sexual orientation, nor shall they require that they be of the same or different sex." In GA #39, the Right to a Lawful Divorce, it is said that "Divorce... shall henceforth be available to all inhabitants of the World Assembly member states without let or hindrance."
Obviously, this shows that the WA enforces the tenets of same-sex marriage and divorce on-demand. However, it also declares that religious groups shall not be affected by this in their form of marriage. This assumes that the State is not connected in any way to a religious group, whereas Farsestan and many other nations in fact are.
This leaves a grey area that we Established Religion States have to consider: is the State, through its having an established religion, able to decide on its own policy as pertaining to same-sex marriage and divorce? Or is it that the State, through being the State, is obliged to abide by WA rules on these matters, no matter what ties it has to a faith community? Farsestan's Zarathustrotema, the head of the House of Priests and head of the established Zoroastrian religion in Farsestan, has noted that same-sex marriage and divorce are not compatible with Zoroastrian teaching.
We would like an answer to this problem so that we may sort the matter out in Farsestani law. Thank you all in advance.
