| Message | Mr Speaker, While it is important to protect family values and every child's right to one mother and one father, IVF is sometimes the only way for a married couple to have children of their own. We would certainly not like to see Pontesian children be replaced by Ahmadi mass immigration as the Patriarch's Men have proposed. Ignatius Sunicus Minister of Health and Social Services |

| Message | Mr Speaker, Sunicus should not pronounce on matters like these, as he represents a government which has sought to replace the orthodox Hosian faith, not through charity but for political expedience with the foul mockery of the anti-Hosios, delivering the Apostolic Faithful into the hands of the Deceiver. If God wills that a married couple shall not be blessed with children, then it is sin to meddle with His divine and inscrutable will - as the Prophet Joshua spoke "My ways are not thy ways and my intentions not thy intentions". It is human hubris to attempt to alter the will of God, detrimental to the plan of salvation. Brother Dominicus Tarmadus I.V.P. Superior-General of the Religious Institute of Arch-Patriarch St. Pius II of the Most Holy Wounded Heart of Our Lord |

| Message | Mr Speaker, The most important issue here is the tyranny of the central government. Surely such a simple issue should be decided by each Pentarchal Satrapy and not have hyper liberal AL (Aurora Libertatis) values forced on everyone. We object to allowing this to continue. Sarkis Darbinyan Chairman of the Alliance of Regions |

| Random fact: Moderation will not accept Cultural Protocol updates which introduce, on a significant scale, cultures which are likely to be insufficiently accessible to players. In particular, for all significant cultures in Particracy, it should be easy for players to access and use online resources to assist with language translation and the generation of character names. Moderation reserves the right to amend Cultural Protocols which are deemed to have introduced significant cultures that are not sufficiently accessible and which are not being actively role-played with. |
