| Message | This is a disgrace! And I am very sure that Prime Minister James Bart Williams of Beach Party will not indulge. |
| Date | 14:52:43, March 23, 2006 CET | From | Lutte Féministe de Libération | To | Debating the Resolution to Request Official Apology |
| Message | How so? I don't see anything disgraceful. The oppression of minorities during the Theocracy was the real disgrace. |
| Date | 17:41:15, March 23, 2006 CET | From | Mouvement des Conservateurs | To | Debating the Resolution to Request Official Apology |
| Message | There was no oppression of minorities. |
| Date | 18:03:26, March 23, 2006 CET | From | Front Canrillaise | To | Debating the Resolution to Request Official Apology |
| Message | Our party was not yet formed at the time of this theocracy and so we do not exactly know the full details. |
| Date | 23:14:54, March 23, 2006 CET | From | Mouvement des Conservateurs | To | Debating the Resolution to Request Official Apology |
| Message | Actually, none of the current active parties descend from the theocracy period. Another reasons why a public apology is not justified. |
| Date | 00:18:04, March 24, 2006 CET | From | Lutte Féministe de Libération | To | Debating the Resolution to Request Official Apology |
| Message | Is to justified. The Theocracy forced its religious values on the minority religions of Rildanor. It was a basic tyranny. We owe it as a government and a people to express our regrets and ensure it will never happen again. |
| Date | 01:04:07, March 24, 2006 CET | From | Mouvement des Conservateurs | To | Debating the Resolution to Request Official Apology |
| Message | It is in the responsibility of the Catholic church to express those regrets, not the government. |
| Date | 14:04:53, March 24, 2006 CET | From | Lutte Féministe de Libération | To | Debating the Resolution to Request Official Apology |
| Message | For a time the government WAS the Catholic Church. This resolution asks only that we apologise for this period when the state assumed the role of the Church. Nothing more and nothing less than an apology for a previous government that stepped over the line. |
| Date | 17:50:19, March 24, 2006 CET | From | Devout Ecologists Party | To | Debating the Resolution to Request Official Apology |
| Message | I disagree with the LDP sentiments, as can be seen by the DEP's recent introduction of the Theocracy Bills. |
| Date | 22:50:25, March 24, 2006 CET | From | Front Canrillaise | To | Debating the Resolution to Request Official Apology |
| Message | The RWE would also like to see the re-emergence of the theocratic days, but with the monarchy still firmly in place. |
| Date | 01:39:20, March 25, 2006 CET | From | Lutte Féministe de Libération | To | Debating the Resolution to Request Official Apology |
| Message | Blik, you people disgust the good-natured members of the Leftist Democratic Party. You cast a dark shadow over the government you govern. We will hold a national day of shame to protest this insanity. |
| Date | 11:11:33, March 25, 2006 CET | From | Union for the Rights of Christian Women | To | Debating the Resolution to Request Official Apology |
| Message | I was here at the time of the theocracy. |
| Date | 13:10:27, March 25, 2006 CET | From | Mouvement des Conservateurs | To | Debating the Resolution to Request Official Apology |
| Message | None of the active parties descend from the theocracy period...so its not in the current governments responsibility for the things happened back then. |
| Date | 00:04:52, March 26, 2006 CET | From | Lutte Féministe de Libération | To | Debating the Resolution to Request Official Apology |
| Message | Yes it is. In the same fashion that other nations in RL have apologized for the actions of their ancestors, we should do the same. It's even more important with the declaration of strong theocratic tendencies of the the two right wing parties. |
| Date | 20:23:15, March 29, 2006 CET | From | Front Canrillaise | To | Debating the Resolution to Request Official Apology |
| Message | In theory the government CAN apologize for something past governments/parties did, but our party will not support this specific apology as we agree with the ideas of that particular past. |
| Date | 12:25:56, March 30, 2006 CET | From | Mouvement des Conservateurs | To | Debating the Resolution to Request Official Apology |
| Message | We abstain this resolution. |

| Message | The CLP abstains as well. |

| Message | O come on, chickens. |
| Date | 05:04:35, March 31, 2006 CET | From | Devout Ecologists Party | To | Debating the Resolution to Request Official Apology |
| Message | In your bill it says "Prime Minister James Bart Williams Jr", while James bart Williams Jr is no longer the Prime Minister you know, heh. |
| Date | 02:24:42, April 01, 2006 CET | From | Lutte Féministe de Libération | To | Debating the Resolution to Request Official Apology |
