This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions have to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We are not sure what you mean by "recognise as an official religion". There is no list of "official religions" kept by the Government.

You could start a new petition clearly setting out the action you would like to see happen.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
