Dear Mdms,


NUS has always supported religious diversity. On the OSA website, one reads that NUS has many religious student societies: 1 Buddhist, 2 Catholic, 2 3 Christian, 1 Hindu, 1 Muslim, and 1 Sathya Sai. The various religions of Singapore are thus very well represented. However, according to the 2000 Singapore Census, 14.8% of the population of Singapore has no religion, making freethought the largest religious affiliation in Singapore after Buddhism and Islam.

We felt that it wasn't right that freethinkers, though being the third largest religious group (so to speak) in Singapore, were without a place in NUS to meet and talk to fellow freethinkers. And so we set up, on the IVLE the Freethinkers Community in NUS.

However, though we have managed to contact some fellow freethinkers via word of mouth, we have so far had no means of spreading the word to the NUS population at large. Most of the religious societies in NUS conduct publicity for their activities, so we have come up with some posters advertising our IVLE Community, and are seeking permission to put them up around campus this week.

We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Thank you.


Yours faithfully,
