| Message | How is a 'Cult' defined. No matter the method, we find this better than allowing everyone to pray to God, Zeus or Satan without someone saying "Please be concerned." |
| Date | 21:32:13, June 03, 2015 CET | From | State-Socialist Party | To | Debating the Religious Fundamentalist Control Act |
| Message | We don't care what people believe as long as they don't kill anyone or commit any human or animal rights abuses. |
| Date | 21:36:15, June 03, 2015 CET | From | State-Socialist Party | To | Debating the Religious Fundamentalist Control Act |
| Message | If you want to "Control Religious Fundamentalists", they are not necessarily in a cult. They could be in any religion. Laws on religion aren't the solution, just continue to enforce laws on killing and human rights abuses etc. |
