The existence of single-member districts discourages the creation of minor parties because the party that receives the most votes secures the office. In other words, the winner gets everything, and other parties have nothing to show for their efforts. If, by way of illustration, the Green Party fielded candidates in all 435 House races and received 20 percent of the vote in each district, it would not win any seats at all. In a system with proportional representation, seats in the legislature are allocated according to the party's share of the popular vote. Thus, minor parties are rewarded for fielding candidates in elections because their efforts result in at least a modicum of representation in the legislative branch.
Answer:
Freedom of religion is abused by some churches
There is a famous maxim: ‘the nearer the church, the farther from God’. This maxim aptly describes the state of most of the churches across the globe.
The churches impose outdated, parochial, orthodox limitations on religion, seekers of truth. The most absurd aspect of these limitations is distortion of the word of God given by enlightened Messiahs, Prophets, Gurus, and Messengers of God. The churches force people to pay more attention to rituals and services than on GOD. Seeking God with all one’s heart, mind, and body is less important than religious ceremonies, hollow prayer services. Most of the religious formalities conducted are devoid of sincere devotion, love, and reverence to God.
Hence, in spite of so many churches across the globe, there is no real God in them – only formalities. All the Messengers of God praised and worshipped God; but churches praise Messengers only. No Messenger of God intended to be worshipped and be the seekers’ ultimate goal. They intended the seekers to consecrate themselves to God realization. They gave the message of universal brotherhood of man and Fatherhood of God. They instructed mankind to see God in all and all in God. But churches have their own doctrines to promote. As a result there are certain clashes among people following different churches.
Churches should spread the divine messages of divine Masters and Messengers of God without any fanaticism. They should give unrestricted freedom to seekers and God should be the only priority. Only then churches all across will fulfill their purposes.
