Message | I believe Church and state should be kept seperate. Remember, not everyone believes in God....some people believe in Hallibutt, the Sausage Santa Claus. |
Date | 18:39:31, May 06, 2005 CET | From | Democratic Centre Party of Gaduridos | To | Debating the Greater Power |
Message | This is a good idea, so long as we don't add any wording that specifically favours one religion over another. |

Random fact: "OOC", "IC" and "IG" are commonly-used acronyms in Particracy. "OOC" refers to comments, discussions and actions which are out-of-character, meaning they are done player-to-player rather than party-to-party. "IC" refers to in-character interactions (ie. party-to-party). Similarly, "IG" means in-game, although this term may also simply refer to what happens in the actual game interface, as opposed to on the forum or elsewhere. "RP" just means "role-play". |
