To stop Illinois Government infiltration by Muslims without Illinois Voters permission

The Issue

Does Illinois have a Christian-American Advisory Council? A Jewish-American Advisory Council? A Hindu-American Advisory Council? A Buddhist-American Advisory Council? Of course not. Defenders of the Muslim-American Advisory Council might respond that such councils aren’t needed, because Jews and Christians and Hindus and Buddhists aren’t facing “hate” the way Muslims are — except that isn’t true, as Jews are targeted in hate crimes far more often than Muslims, and Christians are being viciously persecuted in many areas of the world — by Muslims.

The Illinois Constitution STATES:  SECTION 3. RELIGIOUS FREEDOM
The free exercise and enjoyment of religious profession
and worship, without discrimination, shall forever be
guaranteed, and no person shall be denied any civil or
political right, privilege or capacity, on account of his
religious opinions; but the liberty of conscience hereby
secured shall not be construed to dispense with oaths or
affirmations, excuse acts of licentiousness, or justify
practices inconsistent with the peace or safety of the State.
No person shall be required to attend or support any ministry
or place of worship against his consent, nor shall any
preference be given by law to any religious denomination or
mode of worship. 

READ THE LAST LINE: NOR SHALL ANY PREFERENCE BE GIVEN BY LAW TO ANY RELIGIOUS DENOMINATION OR MODE OF WORSHIP.
