Another good reason why this archaic institution should not be having a say in how the country is run, or how its children are educated.

What, you don't think that institution should be able to bestow divine right to rule on a man who still has the legal power to suspend parliament (or force Australia to choose a new prime minister) whenever he feels like it?

To be honest the constitutional monarchy doesn’t bother me that much, but I do believe the country should be secular and that schools should not be allowed to have a religious character.
