| Message | Good Afternoon, The Hosian Democracy (Démocratie Hosienne) kindly asks you to participate actively to the debate, which is officially declared open. If we want the country to change, religion is one of the aspects that, in our opinion, has to be taken into account. We know that religion is not the first thing that comes to mind when the topic is "changing a country", but this is one of the steps that have to be taken. Kind Regards, Dominic Sevier, Secretary of the Hosian Democracy (Démocratie Hosienne) |

| Message | Our party supports moderate encouragement of the Hosienne religion, and supports the freedom of religion. However, we do believe that it is not in the government’s duty to encourage or promote teacher lead prayers in schools, instead it should be the will of the school to choose (with individuals allowed an opt-out); regulation is essential to ensure that no religion is abusing their power in society, and it is especially necessary in the case of schooling, where vulnerable children are put at risk. |

| Message | We in the CDE absolutely agree with Article 1 and 3 of this bill. However we take great issue with article 2, we must only allow Hosian religious schools, this is a Hosian nation and we must not let it be diluted in that belief, article 2 would do just that. |
| Date | 18:23:10, April 09, 2018 CET | From | Démocratie Hosienne | To | Debating the Redécouvrir la réligion |
| Message | Seeing that no party has expressed his opinion for months (apart from Coalition de Dieu et de l'État and Reconstruire l'ancien), Démocratie Hosienne will move to voting procedures with this bill |
