| Message | I rise in strong support of this bill. Religous schools are fine and well, and religous studies are fine and well, but we must also ensure that all children in the country receive education in the necessary subjects and learn according to the curriculum established by the government. To do any less would be a betrayal of the people and our children. |

| Message | I agree |
| Date | 12:33:16, February 02, 2006 CET | From | Union for a Responsible Republic | To | Debating the Religous Education Sensibility Act |
| Message | At this time I cannot give this my support, however, that does not mean that I am against this in principal. |
| Date | 18:41:48, February 02, 2006 CET | From | One Cildania Party | To | Debating the Religous Education Sensibility Act |
| Message | I don't think the current law means that religious schools can teach whatever they want, rather the way I see it, the regulations refer to the type of religion running the school, or the ways in which they integrate religious teachings in to the national curriculum. Therefore, by this interpretation, I feel no need to support this bill. |
| Date | 22:18:54, February 02, 2006 CET | From | Liberal Party | To | Debating the Religous Education Sensibility Act |
| Message | The current law clearly states that any relgion may establish a school with "no regulations." If I'm mistaken in my assertion that "no" means "no", when "no" actually means "some", then I'll withdraw this bill. |
