MP Hussein Husseini called for granting Lebanese citizenship to non-Lebanese heads of religious sects operating in the country. In a draft law he submitted Friday, the former speaker urged the Cabinet to grant Lebanese citizenship through a decree to any leading religious personality who is living in Lebanon. He justified the proposal by referring to articles of the Constitution that call for respect to all monotheistic religions whose practices do not undermine law and order.
So, if I start the Church of the Divine Elvis and get together six or seven suckers marks adherents and move to Lebanon, I get to be a citizen? Or do I have to have an army, like Hezbollah? |
