| Message | Legislating against religion is wrong as freeom to practice relgion is a personal freedom. The free choice of where to attend to receive education is available so it stands to reason that every person should be given the option to attend a school with faith based elements if they so wish. Therefore we vote in favour of this bill. |

| Random fact: Did you know you can change the official name of your nation? All you need to do is draw up a new name that is in accordance with the Nation Renaming Guide, pass a bill proposing the name change with a two-thirds majority and then post a request to Moderation on the "Renaming Requests" thread. You can change city and region names in this way too. |
