| Message | Don't you mean that prayer will not be allowed in the interest of an unbalanced education? |
| Date | 17:35:42, May 23, 2007 CET | From | Purple Party | To | Debating the Prayer Prohibition Bill |
| Message | How can you defend religion? It's an excuse to not do anything. We shouldn't teach our children to pray but to proactively change whatever problems that face humans. |

| Message | An excuse not to do anything? You must be living in a fantasy world. Religion has caused the construction of more hospitals, schools, poor houses, etc than any other force in history. Prayer helps people receive the grace and virtue to do what others say can't be done. Secularism leads either to mass exterminations or stagnation. |
