| Date | 06:41:52, July 06, 2005 CET | From | Mordusian Inclusion Party | To | Debating the Better Adoption Act |
| Message | We agree with proposal 1, but not proposal 2, as it is discrimination against homosexual couples and singles who could raise children well. |
| Date | 22:34:15, July 06, 2005 CET | From | Fantastic Party | To | Debating the Better Adoption Act |
| Message | It is the responsibility of central goverment to ensure a standardised and strict adoption policy to prevent children being viewed as some kind of commodity. Failure to enforce this regulation over all of Mordussia is as bad as encouraging no regulation at all. |
