| Message | Of course that is not going to happen. Regulations such as making sure that they are not violating any civil rights or human rights, making sure they are teaching what they are supposed to teach, etc. |

| Date | 05:06:43, June 30, 2008 CET | From | Seldonist Cognitive Party | To | Debating the Religious Schools Reform II Act |
| Message | Religion is the largest paradox of the human race in that it has been the single biggest source of Unhappiness in the history of humanity but can also be used to create and support Happiness. This paradox is considered to be simply too dangerous to the continuation of the human race as a whole however so those who embrace Seldonism are against Religion entirely.
