| Message | Mr. Speaker -- We find it somewhat disturbing that people who profess to minister to others to spread their "true faith" receive payment for the favor. Ministers should not be in the game for a pension. Sincerely, The Steel and the Gray |

| Random fact: When it comes to creating a Cultural Protocol in a Culturally Open nation, players are not necessarily required to provide a plausible backstory for how the nation's cultural background developed. However, the provision of a plausible backstory may be a factor in whether Moderation approves the Cultural Protocol if players in surrounding nations question its appropriateness for their region of the game map. |
