| Message | STRONGLY support!!! We applaud the Immeressen Party for compromising and bring Religious FREEDOM to the people of Likatonia. WHOORAY!!! The Catholics can come out to pary(haha)!!! However, we believe that religions should be tax-exempt BUT if they use their authority to start a profit-making business, then the PROFIT should tax. I mean, you would have con artists starting "phony churches" just to avoid paying taxes. Nevertheless, PLEASE vote for this bill and we might can change it later. |

| Random fact: It is the collective responsibility of the players in a nation to ensure all currently binding RP laws are clearly outlined in an OOC reference bill in the "Bills under debate" section of the nation page. Confusion should not be created by displaying only some of the current RP laws or displaying RP laws which are no longer current. |
