| Message | Mr Speaker, religion has no place in our societies. All religion is responsible for is creating wars all across the world. Obviously the NSP vote against because they want to establish their state religion and re-instate their Monarchy. Nevertheless i stand by my word when i say that the HNP will defeat religion in Hutori. |
