| Message | Dear cleeagues, We understand that there are deep religious tought in our country about that, but we believe we must make a tough choice here. If we are for free speech, we cannot allow for such a rule to pass in which we would punish people for using religious words and desecrate them. |

| Message | Dear colleagues, this is a religious country and we must devolve our respect to the majority of people who voted for our religious parties. I hope you understand there's nothing against free speech in this bill, everyone may continue to show his opinions about every religion, but maintaining respect for every faithful and not offending them with useless blasphemy. |

| Message | Dear colleagues, As someone who enjoys partaking in blasphemous activity from time, this bill borders on tyranny. As much as the religious zealots have a right to believe in millennia-old fairytales and somehow claim its relevance, I and any thinking person have every right to mock them for it. |
