What we’re about

According to the census, 39% of Australians don’t follow a religion, a significantly larger number than any one religious denomination. Less than half of Australians indicate a belief in Christianity. Most Australians believe in the importance of maintaining a separation between church and state. So why is it that in 2023, many religions still enjoy special privileges under the law, and play a disproportionate role in public affairs? Why is it that Federal Parliament opens each sitting day with a Christian prayer? The Secular Alliance of WA is an alliance of the WA representatives of the Rationalist Society of Australia, Humanist Australia, Sceptics and Atheists joining voice to calls for true separation of church and state in West Australia, and state neutrality in matters of religion
