| Message | It was hell to get article 2 passed under the communist regime back in the 2490's |
| Date | 02:21:21, December 28, 2007 CET | From | Enlightened Cosmic Brotherhood | To | Debating the The Religion State Interference Act of 2506 |
| Message | Illogical. Religion is foolishness. (OOC: The "Communist" regime lasted for a much longer time then that. The "Socialist" in "Socialist Al'Badara" has had a lasting effect on politics here. I bite my fist everytime I vote for something that would go another thing I proposed decades ago when I controlled a Anarchist-Socialist party) |
