| Message | We will back this so long as both of our nation's heritage religions (Geraja and Christianity) are expressly included under article III in the description portion of the bill. The lack of respect given to the Christian minorities in this country was one of the main reasons for the SSD being formed to fight the Protectorate Party when they had total control over the Java (legislature) roughly a century ago. -Joseph Hearte, Party Chairman, Supporters of Science in Design |
