Message | This is wrong as we need to teach good morals to our students |
Date | 00:01:55, April 11, 2016 CET | From | Socialist Equality Party | To | Debating the Ban government funding for private schools |
Message | We are not going to ban religious education institutions, we're just not going to subside them. Besides, morals are taught at home, not at school |
Date | 00:33:33, April 11, 2016 CET | From | Socialist Party of Solentia (SPS) | To | Debating the Ban government funding for private schools |
Message | Moral doesn't come from religion. Also where is the freedom in religious schools. You basically force students to believe in a religion. |
Date | 00:37:24, April 11, 2016 CET | From | Republican Party | To | Debating the Ban government funding for private schools |
Message | We have a mandatory state religion so we no longer need to promote religous freedom since attendance is mandatory. We are promoting consistency and the church of Solentia is a good teaching for morality. |
Date | 00:37:52, April 11, 2016 CET | From | Republican Party | To | Debating the Ban government funding for private schools |
Message | This constitution has no separation of church and state so I can promote this if I want. Beat us at the ballot box |

Message | That's the point of the reform, don't you get it? We may have compulsory attendance, and that is what we want to change from the constitution. That's our job as senators, isn't it? |
Date | 04:18:25, April 11, 2016 CET | From | Socialist Equality Party | To | Debating the Ban government funding for private schools |
Message | You bet we will. Power doesn't last forever. |
Date | 04:24:35, April 11, 2016 CET | From | Republican Party | To | Debating the Ban government funding for private schools |
Message | We have reformed to compulsory attendance we have instituted conservatism in he country and stole it from the Pirate Party. If you look at the records the first election THE Republican Party took part in we had a 56% Majoirty. Now we have ye to reach that Majoirty but conservative ideas win. We have only lost the runoff for the pirate party 2 times even with taking in little 3rd party voters |
