| Message | Against. When the FAP regains it's rightful spot at the top of the Diet, we'll lead the way for pro-religious measures. |

| Message | The KHP, HNP and TCP have done much to promote religion in Hulstria. What have you done? |
| Date | 02:14:19, September 23, 2008 CET | From | Konstitutionelle Monarchie Partei | To | Debating the Re-Secularization Act of 2640 |
| Message | We've supported Pro-Religion measures and have always in favor of any bill that would promote religion. Half these religious bills have been overturned thanks to leftist and immoral parties, you guys should be the ones to blame for this recent influx of immoral standards that've come onto this country. |

| Message | I am very confused. The TCP were founded to spread good morals to the peoples of Hulstria, and to create a Hulstrian state that embraced religion. We have achieved our goals several times, and we hope that we shall continue to achieve our goals further ahead in the future. |
