The campaign often used the slogan "Don't Let the Church Govern Australia", attacking the policies of the Howard Government concerning abortion, contraception, and gay marriage. In 2007 the party merged with the similar Freedom From Religion Party. The phrase "Freedom From Religion" was appended as a subheading to the main party name on the website and in marketing materials.[3][4] This subheading has since been changed to the sub heading "Freedom of religion and freedom from religion". The party contested the 2007 Federal Australian election by fielding candidates for each Australian state's representation in the Senate under the campaign slogan "Don't Let The Church Govern Australia - Keep Religion Out of Politics". The party was not registered federally, so the party name did not appear on the ballot paper. Ian Bryce appeared on ABC Radio in a discussion on secularism[5] and John Perkins submitted an article to the Australian political e-journal On Line Opinion,[6] but the party received little other media attention during the campaign. In 2008 and 2009 the party became more active in Senate Committee discussions around the taxation of religious organisations and the HREOC submission on same sex discrimination.[7] On 2 July 2009, the Secular Party applied to the Australian Electoral Commission to be registered as a federal political party; its application was accepted on 16 June 2010.[8][9] The 2010 federal election was the Secular Party's first election as a registered political party. The party fielded thirty one candidates across Australia. These included Senate candidates in all states and nineteen candidates for the House of Representatives. According to the Australian Electoral Commission the total number of votes cast for the party in lower house seats was 10,287 or 0.1% of the overall total. The party received 8,741 first preference votes in the Senate election, or 0.09%.[10] In the 2013 federal election the Secular Party received 4,834 votes in the lower house, or 0.04%, and 12,698 first preference votes in the senate, or 0.09% [11]In the 2016 federal election, the Secular Party of Australia only fielded candidates for the senate, two each for the Australian Capital Territory, New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria.[12] Policies and aimsAims
