Writing Task 2: Responding to Survey Questions
Read the following information.
You live in a country where government is planning to impose ban on wearing religious symbols in public. The government has sent out an opinion survey to see what residents would like to say on this issue.
Restrictions on Religion Survey :
Option A:People have the right to practice any religion.
Option B: Religion is root to many problems.
To whom it may concern. The government should allow people to practise any religion in public, and wearing religious symbols is not a horrendous crime that the government is thinking about banning that activity. I am enlighting some rationale in this survey which would strengthen my choice. Firstly, many immigrants live in our country, and they believe in different faith and believe. Also, they are wearing their holy symbols and celebrating their festival publicly if the government imposes a ban on those kinds of activity that negatively impacts immigrants and might leave the country. Secondly, prohibiting the holy signs in a public area would promote dictatorship, and residents may think they will lose their freedom. Ultimately, citizens might rebel against the government. Instead of restricting pious activity, the government should encourage the people to follow their religion. Due to this, people are aware of the different cultures and traditions, and they respect each other's beliefs. As per my perception, a person has a right to follow his beliefs, and authority should respect their religion. I would appreciate this survey to listen to my opinion. Regards, Tony
