| Message | The are currently free to be whatever religion they desire, but why should a cult (like the one that took so many lives a few years ago) have the same rights as the dominant religions of Darnussia? The Darnussian people want their faith recognized as the legitimate faith by the government, why should they be denied? |
| Date | 02:44:19, November 12, 2007 CET | From | Social Democratic Party | To | Debating the Abolishment of state religion |
| Message | Recognizing one faith as legitimate recognizes all other faiths as illegitimate. One faith should not have rights above any other faith. And what is the difference between a cult and an organized religion? |

| Random fact: In order for a Cabinet bill to pass, more than half of the legislature must vote for it and all of the parties included in the proposed Cabinet must support it. If your nation has a Head of State who is also the Head of Government, then the party controlling this character must also vote for the bill, since the Head of Government is also a member of the Cabinet. If any of these requirements are not met, the bill will not pass. |
