| Message | The right to faith is already recognised by our law. What is not -and it shouldn't- is the discrimination of other businesses with respect to religious ones. |

| Message | Why should we tax charity. |
| Date | 20:08:34, September 17, 2017 CET | From | Social Liberal Party | To | Debating the The Right To Faith Act of 4273. |
| Message | What the law currently states is that all income of religious companies is taxed. The same as, for example, food processing companies. Can I donate to food processing companies? Yes, as I can donate to religious companies. Were the former tax-free, we would call it money laundering. Nevertheless some insist in calling the latter "charity". Let me say I still do not see the difference. |
