| Message | So you feel that oppressing the minority in this country is a good thing? To denied citizenship or adulthood because they're not Zionist Christian and to force Atheist or Muslim kid to pray to a god they don't believe in? To restrict the right of Muslim or Terran Christian because they're not Zionist? Why don't all of you just send us back into the stone age?" Anjoy Poesy |

| Message | Now if there was a good reason for this bill, the CZP or I, would have made it a long time ago. It has been this way since way before you, the CRP, or even me, and we all intend on keeping it the way it currently is... Therfore, I can not support, and I can not allow this to be happening in our great nation. Rosh HaMemshala Spider Pig II |

| Message | "Just because it is here before doesn't necessary means it is a good thing. Change and adaptation into the 26th century must be done. Beitenyu have been nothing, but a closed and oppressed society for too long. We must recognize the right of the people to practice the religion as they wish." Anjoy Poesy |
