The government's solution to this shall be to get as far away from the situation as possible. We shall not care if people are praying. We shall not care if people are not praying. We shall not care if people are practicing the Ahmad religion. We shall not care if they don't. Do not force people into following your religion you fanatics. Ask them to follow your religion. We are going to try to enforce some policies that make government weaker in this area." ~Ted Johnson, Head a Chairman of the LPS |

Message | "Unfortunately, there isn't much we could do. Refusing to tax unrecognized religions is good because the government will not determine what is a recognized religion. Government needs out of the situation." ~Ted Johnson, Head chairman of the LPS |

Message | This way you just can claim that your company is a religious organization and you are tax exempt. Ahmadi is a recognized religion and therefore is not taxed. We don't know what Ahmadi followers would like to change on this issue. Julia Wise, SDP chairperson |

Message | The ahmadists have awaken the ancient wrath of Elyon's people. They have insulted every true beliver with their praises of a false prophet. We now serve a greater purpose of salvation. To you my Theognosian brother's i say " Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong. for we shall receive from him anything we ask, because we obey his commands and do what pleases him." Adam Reed NLP Chairman |

Message | "We have taken our stance, and this measure is to create peace. It's to show the other smaller religions that we aren't 'in bed' with Ahmadi. Since we aren't taxing Ahmadi either, we aren't 'in bed' with smaller religions either." ~Ted Johnson, Head Chairman of the LPS |

Random quote: "Ask the experimenters why they experiment on animals, and the answer is: "Because the animals are like us." Ask the experimenters why it is morally okay to experiment on animals, and the answer is: "Because the animals are not like us." Animal experimentation rests on a logical contradiction." - Charles R.
