| Message | Mr Speaker, Our party is confused. This bill is titled secular education, but does not do away with religious schools. It's all or nothing for the SLP. Either the school's promote Lodamese Nationalism and are required to be religious, or we teach our children in an environment that is not influenced by religion at all, and promote the importance of a strong scientific mind. ~ Delia Fairchild Minister of Education and Culture |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, We agree entirely with the SLP. It's either Lodamese Nationalism, or no relgion at all. -- Gordon Fertig, Chairman of the GNRG |
