| Date | 19:32:00, September 26, 2012 CET | From | Jundakeem (Soldiers of Akeem) | To | Debating the National Motto Act 3371 |
| Message | This government can go to the depths of hell for their blasphemy and anti-Abadi policies. Akim will punish those who defy his divinity and the religious identity of Kafuristan, the most holiest of nations on Terra. The Holy City of Helem is not a royal city. It is the most holiest of holy and the burial site of the Holy Messenger of Akim, the Prophet Ranz'riah, peace be upon Him, and the Grand Emir is the custodian of the city. The Holy Code of Law is a set of religious laws teached to men by the Holy Spirit Rasul al-Haqq, peace be upon Him, it is not the secular laws of our nation. The Liberal Party is trying to destroy our religious and cultural identity and this shall not be accepted. The Faithfull will rise up and overthrow the infidels and disbelievers. |

| Message | The objections of the opposition are noted. Our policy is to secularise the government. As the opposition notes, the Holy Code of Law is not the secular law of our nation so by their own argument, the Holy Law has no place in our secular government. Of course, we are happy for those whose religious beliefs are important to regard the City of Helem as holy. Under the secular constitution the importance of that city is reinforced in the King's title, and he remains Custodian. When over 80% of the electors vote for us, we believe we have a very firm mandate to bring our beliefs into effect. |

| Date | 01:36:35, September 28, 2012 CET | From | Community of Kafuristan | To | Debating the National Motto Act 3371 |
| Message | We the Community of Kafuristan believe that the national anthem and motto should show that the country is a multi religious/ethnic society. The country is filled with people of different ethnic and religious bckgrounds. We should show respect for the different beliefs, and remove all religious references in both the national motto and the national anthem |
