| Message | Mr. Speaker, We will not go crazy if this bill is passed. The point of Lodamese Nationalism was to get rid of actual "religions" and as such, we will be okay if this bill is passed. Lodamese Nationalism has served its purpose by building a national community of interdependent humans instead of a heirarchy that is below a "god" figure from a foreign culture. We will vote against, but we will respect the vote of the MPs who vote in favour. If this bill is passed, we will respect it. -- Andre Fertig, Chairman of the GNRG, Vice President of Lodamun |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, This Bill would do nothing to restore the dire lack of religious liberties in Lodamun. Ignatz Linden Chairman of the Conservative Monarchist Alliance |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, In comparison to my last time in office, this has been quite quiet. It is understandable for the rest of the Presidium to not allow this bill to pass. In fact, none of the recent proposals are expected to do so. The SLP is quite content with the state of things, and has notice a large lull in proposals, which in large part explains our rather ludicrous proposals. ~ Rowan Argall The President |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, At the next election, the President and his party will need to explain to the electorate why they have made so many of these "ludicrous proposals"!! Ignatz Linden Chairman of the Conservative Monarchist Alliance |
| Date | 03:33:38, November 17, 2014 CET | From | Social Libermuns Party | To | Debating the Absolute Removal of Religion |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, We have already explained our actions enough. The people of Lodamun will decide whether they are opposed to these proposals or not. ~ Rowan Argall The President |
