Today, the senate of the republic of Alantino gathered today to discuss religion, and the steps the government wants to take on the isue.
The tribune recently passed along a bill that will let the government decide which religious beliefs it wants to support.
Two (2) of the senators are "die-hard" catholics, so they have taken that root in a serious manner. They argue that it's the most coventional and widely believed religion in the world, while two (2) other senators chose the path of seperation of church and state.
One (1) senator apparently argued that the spiritual path is the way to go, where anything that takes spiritual form, like spiritualists and such, should be backed by the government. It was a real plain and bold arguement as i may add.
After two (2) hours of both stances trying tyo know down the spiritual route, and to gain the support of the fifth (5th) senator, they finally gave up and it was a no-win situation.
They all pretty much agreed that the Emperor should decide this, and he has.
Emperor Joseph Anthony Marzullo:
"I believe no religion ought to be supported by the government, if we have no evidence of any one of those beliefs to be the absolute truth, then how can we support anything? Correct, we can't. I vote with the two (2) senators that voted "no" to favoring of religious beliefs. If we would have voted "yes", then what seperates us from a religious ran nation?" :?:
