Senator BERNARDI (South Australia) (16:10): I move: That the Senate— (a) notes that 31 October 2017 marked the 500th anniversary of the Reformation triggered by Martin Luther; (b) also notes that, in Australia and around the world, this anniversary was commemorated, including for the first time in history by Catholics and Protestants together in joint ecumenical events; (c) further notes the significant social, political and religious changes that occurred throughout Europe as a result of, and in response to, the Reformation; (d) recognises the benefits to Australian students from learning more about the Reformation in the school curriculum; (e) further recognises the significant contribution of the Reformation to the advance of literacy and freedom of thought, conscience, belief and religion; and (f) calls upon honourable senators, the House of Representatives and the Federal Government to uphold those freedoms in their legislative deliberations.
