Description[?]:
| "The people of Mordusia must be protected from disgusting content that current laws freely accept to be shown on our televisions and computer screens. Censorship should not be viewed as evil when it is used to protect our children and ourselves from the true evils of explicit material. We must pass an act to screen everything under the Moral Protection Board, run by leading ministers of the Holy Mordusian Church of Truth and Salvation." - Bishop Thomas Wright, leader of the Holy Mordusian Church of Truth and Salvation's Media and Moral Preservation Board. "Bishop Wright raises a valid point. What is media freedom doing for us when it spreads lies and evil throughout our Mordusia? People have become corrupted by these lies. These lies have put slackers into power. These lies are responsible for crises like the Paramilitary Crisis which our predecessors in the Moralistic Idealism Party ended by standing up to corrupt Canrillaise monarchists and their attempt to secure power for themselves. This evil has corrupted holy people who could be doing much more good if they weren't wasting time standing around in parks." - Archbishop Colin Peterson, leader of the Holy Mordusian Church of Truth and Salvation and of the Party for the Strengthening of the Holy. |
