| Message | I\'m opposed. THe state should have no business in endorsing any particular religion or allowing public schools to endorse any particular relgion. Doing so would give one religion special status and de facto paramountcy over all the others. |

| Random fact: Particracy does not allow real-life brand names (eg. Coca Cola, McDonalds, Microsoft). However, in the case of military equipment brand names it is permitted to use simple number-letter combinations (eg. T-90 and F-22) borrowed from real life, and also simple generic names, like those of animals (eg. Leopard and Jaguar). |
