| Message | It is clear violation of seperation of chuch and state to leave this decision to schools themselves. We cannot have teachers forcing their view of religion on students in public schools. |

| Message | We certainly believe that there should be no state religion. However, we are more comfortable in letting the localities decide for themselves. Jelbanians are strong persons of faith. |

| Random fact: "OOC", "IC" and "IG" are commonly-used acronyms in Particracy. "OOC" refers to comments, discussions and actions which are out-of-character, meaning they are done player-to-player rather than party-to-party. "IC" refers to in-character interactions (ie. party-to-party). Similarly, "IG" means in-game, although this term may also simply refer to what happens in the actual game interface, as opposed to on the forum or elsewhere. "RP" just means "role-play". |
