Bill: Religious Checking
Details
Submitted by[?]: Pnték Znkak Prta 'Bastardry'
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.

Description[?]:
| We must ensure that the voices of religion, whilst permitted, practice what they preach and preach what they practice. It is safer to check on a ministrial level so that none are seen to taint their faith in Pontesian eyes; woe betide those who pervert the message of their faith if they teach their blasphemies in a school. |

| Message | The Bastards disapprove of the Oh Gnoez statement. Any silliness dispensed in the field of politics is diluted with elongated words and elaborate vocabulary - usually containing very little content in itself - and is therefore dilute and impure. |
