| Message | In Valruzia, we do not have a division between rich and poor, for all needs are provided for. These proposals will bring about a reintroduction of economic inequality. |

| Message | There are people who's able to afford Healthcare in Valruzia, and it's unfair for the poor people that they also get free healthcare. besides, gossips on the streets said that overly rich people do exist on Valruzian soil, and they said it comes High-Ranking Government Officials... |

| Message | Your accusations are founded on rumors which have no basis on reality. The Holy Scriptures of the Christian Holiness Church are clear that wealth is counter to the will of Sophia. Wealth divides one from another, causing the sisterhood and brotherhood of humanity to splinter, eventually leading to being severed from the Divine.

| Message | CHSP even if that statement of yours is true. Our government is not here to enforce a theoracracy upon the people. If you believe that by forcing people to go along with your religious zeal will some how make them better or get them to heaven then you are wrong. |

| Message | Your ignorance of our Faith is frightening when so many Valruzians are a part of our Church. Relationship with the Divine can never be forced, and it is not "fire insurance" unlike in many religious faiths. God is Love, and Ze wishes to extend that Love to all humanity. Heaven is not the reward for this, the reward is knowing that all live as One. |
