| Message | We are not to concerned about article 1 as we feel there should be no direct link between Government and religion, however we believe that religions should be treated as any other company and so support article 2. |

| Message | This is not to propose a direct link or any kind of manipulation of religions, it is solely to secure the registration of preaching ministers, so that the government have easier and quicker possibilities to find offender when concerning to extremist and terrorist nature. Also any other company is registered by directors, executives etc. so why not religions. |

| Message | We don't have laws against people spreading extreme views. Terrorism is a different matter and we believe that our current security checks are enough; why should missionaries be treated differently to other visitors. |
| Date | 23:48:09, December 15, 2005 CET | From | Hobrazian Peoples Party | To | Debating the Religous regulation bill |
| Message | Becuase these people talks to masses. Many people listen to them and thereby we open our society for extreme thoughts, this needs registration, not control or manipulation! If their thoughts and teaching is in no manner dangerous to our nation (in any terrorising nature) they can truly continue their work with no fear. This is just a precaution. |
| Date | 23:52:59, December 15, 2005 CET | From | National Imperial Hobrazian Front | To | Debating the Religous regulation bill |
| Message | No and no. The government should leave religion alone. |
