I am a person who tends to trust science more than religion, but at the same time, science is something that is fluid. Theories change and develop over time. So for that reason, it's wrong to ban religious adverts because you think they are false. You're entitled to that belief, just as everyone else is entitled to think they are true. We live in a multicultural democracy, so respect others beliefs as you respect your own.
I respect everyone right to faith and if that person given faith is right for them and helps them live their life then religion definitely works but I object to the teaching being given as true to all and the promotion of religion through mainstream media.
