| Message | The newly founded SLP, although with parliamentary representation, rises in absolute opposition to this proposal. The separation of church and state is one of the most crucial principles of the Liberal and Republican, Constitutional and Democratic State. |

| Message | Malivia has since its formation of a modern nation, has looked to the Geraja religion for the guiding principles of governance. Separating the church and state have been put to the people again and again with the same result. The people choose to have the government tied to the church. Our state has been lead by the head of the church through much of its history and our very name highlights the bond. Of course there are those who do not wish to practice the True Faith and we are not intolerant of their beliefs. But highlighting the moral foundations of our government with a well defined church provides comfort to the majority. |
| Date | 22:51:27, June 30, 2007 CET | From | Supporters of Science in Design (IP) | To | Debating the Ratification of the Recognition of the Moral Authority of Government |
| Message | It is time to move Malivia forward into the modern world, by putting credence on the people's will, as opposed to ancient codes. We are a mostly secular nation, so it is time to recognize the will of the majority of the people. |
