| Message | This will seriously weaken our military |
| Date | 19:06:19, January 08, 2007 CET | From | Falanges Party | To | Debating the Rule on military |
| Message | Not necessarily, because the non- Christians will be replaced by Christians. On the contrary, we will have a more homogeneous army. |

| Message | I feel passing this wil open the floodgates to political interference in the running of the armed forces of the Crown. Before we knew it the enemies of His Majesty and God would have brought in "positive discrimination" or political correctness, rather than simply returning to the status quo. |

| Message | So you are willing to sacrifice the lives of good hard working Christians, and let cults and sects run wild in Luthori. Cute christians you are. |
| Date | 19:37:16, January 08, 2007 CET | From | Falanges Party | To | Debating the Rule on military |
| Message | Well this is not how we preceived it: Being a member in the army is not "sacrificing lives", but we consider it as a privilege because defending the Empire and God should be a privilege dedicated only to the Christians. But we feel that this law is not making a concensus, so no problem. |

| Message | Non-Christian soldiers can quite adequately serve a Christian Empire. Take the Gurkhas for instance, not to mention the Seikhs in the Indian Army or soldiers (Buddhists?) recruited from Hong Kong. |
| Date | 20:18:13, January 08, 2007 CET | From | Catholic Justicial Party - Solidarity | To | Debating the Rule on military |
| Message | The Unionist Party has a good point. We will likely oppose this (apologies to our friends in the CDP). |
| Date | 21:09:35, January 08, 2007 CET | From | Falanges Party | To | Debating the Rule on military |
| Message | Well, as I said, i may have been misunderstood. Building a army of Christians is an HONOR for the Christians. I thaught that it was necessary to "purify" the army from non christians. I really did not understand why this proposal have been rejected especially by our allies whose greatest goal is to achieve an Empire where Christians are the true rulers. |

| Message | We agree wholeheartedly with the CDP's aims. As I've said, foreign mercenaries can fight quite adequately for a Christian army, but if you're planning to create a theocracy through a military coup you would need far more loyalty than these types would offer. |

| Message | Rahter than vote against our Christian brothers we will abstain. |
| Date | 20:47:22, January 09, 2007 CET | From | Falanges Party | To | Debating the Rule on military |
| Message | We thanks our brothers in the Unionist Party. Long live the Christians Long live the Emperor Long live the Holy Empire. |
