| Message | That all depends on which articles you place alongside it. We're not particularly bothered about so called Equal Opportunities and so will vote depending on the other articles. |

| Message | Well I don't know about you but I want the best of the best serving in our military and race or religion means absolutely nothing. This vote will focus only on getting this passed because this is too important to be tied down by another issue. |

| Message | If we want to use our army for crusades we have to be very careful who we recruit. We have no problem with recruiting mudskins: so long as they denounce their heathen religions and convert to Christianity. |

| Message | If you choose to fight for this country then you must agree with what we are fighting for and as I said all I'm suggesting is that we accept anybody that wants to fight for our cause regardless of race or religion |

| Message | But this country happens to be the Holy Land, fighting a Christian crusade. Under your proposals heathens could join the ranks and sabotage our operations from within. |

| Message | Well I have two points. One it's up to our generals to decided how they want to use troops and to make sure we are always in a position in which sabatoge isn't a problem. Two I trust all the men and women of our country to fight for and defend this country no matter what religion. |
