| Message | I was worried when I first saw the title of this bill, but after reading the description I have only one thing to say, "Welcome to the holy land, brother!". If you check our current laws I expect you'll find they are already to your taste. If we've missed anything we will gladly support any articles to correct that and put an end to sin in the Empire. |

| Message | Yes I've reviewed our official laws and there are a few problems. The first is that we don't come out and formally say "Homosexuality is illegal". The next problem is with marriage. Our stance on marriage is that the government doesn't get involved. We must recognize marriage as a civil union between a man and a woman. Our laws address the problems but don't go far enough |
