| Message | I think everything should be regulated for the good of the people... Article 1 is no different... And foreign missionaries should have to resister... Simple as that.... |

| Message | Yes to 1. What exactly does "regulated" mean in article 2? |
| Date | 04:22:57, September 26, 2007 CET | From | Endralonian People's Movement | To | Debating the Religous Bill |
| Message | Agree with 2 because it's education we are talking about and that should always be regulated.. but as for 1 i don't agree because religion should be separated from state, so it's no bussiness of ours which missionaires are in our country. |

| Message | Oh, I didn't see Article 1 as restricting any kind of religion, I just saw it from the stand point that everyone within the country should be documented. If it somehow restricts religion or religious freedom, I am against it. |

| Random fact: In cases where a party has no seat, the default presumption should be that the party is able to contribute to debates in the legislature due to one of its members winning a seat at a by-election. However, players may collectively improvise arrangements of their own to provide a satisfying explanation for how parties with no seats in the legislature can speak and vote there. |
