| Message | Thirty minutes after the string of bombings that targeted Reformed Churches, two explosions went off fifteen seconds apart in a Keymon Facist Lutheran Church. High Reverend Evangeline Mayflower is believed to have given a speech on health reform at the church earlier that day. Black October has not yet claimed responsibility for the attack. |

| Message | "This is a dark day to our sect. A terrorist attack has been carried out against our peace loving church, and three worshippers have become martyrs. Black October, that vile band of rogue anarchists, has not dared to claim responsibility for these horrid attacks, but we know who our enemies are. If Raymond Gaines, the minister of infernal affairs is too scared to do anything about the situation in our country, we will have to deal it ourselves. We are god fearing and peace loving people, but in times of strife, we do not hesitate to take arms and defend our faith." - High Reverend Evangeline Mayflower in TV-interviev after the bombings. |

| Message | "This is unusually insane, even for Black October. The greatest incidence of transmaission of the HIV/AIDS problem is currently heterosexual women - not homosexual men. If anything, if health really IS the concern of this bill, we should have been calling for MORE gay soldiers." --Bad Wolf, elected speaker for the Underdog Party. |

| Message | (OOC: Sorry - rereading that, it looks like I'm saying this IS a Black October bill, rather than comparing it to Black October bills for 'craziness'...) |

| Message | "AIDS or not, sodomy is not healthy and homosexuality is a desease. And the goverment should deal with this." - Dr. Franz Krutz from the Facist Lutheran Church |
| Date | 00:20:32, December 14, 2006 CET | From | Freedom of Religion Party | To | Debating the Health Reform |
| Message | "Why is sodomy not healthy? And, if homosexuality is a disease - what is the vector? We believe that the Lutherian church is blinded by prejudice... not acting on scientific facts. We refuse to endorse their homophobe agenda. But, at least we would have respected them more if they had stated it as such - we would rather vote for honest prejudice than deceptions masquerading as science." --Bad Wolf, elected speaker for the Underdog Party. |
