When Atheists Start Defending Christianity…
You know that things have really spiralled downward when Princeton atheist and bioethicist — Peter Singer — is defending Israel Folau and his freedom to express his Christian convictions. Singer writes: [Folau’s] post no more expresses hatred toward homosexuals than cigarette warnings express hatred toward smokers. The only rational reason that anyone would get so upset about Folau’s post is if you actually believe that he is speaking the truth about heaven and hell. Singer continues: [Folau’s beliefs] do not trouble me, because there is, in my view, no god, no afterlife, and no hell. Nor do I differentiate, ethically,…
Ten Reasons Men Should have a Say on Abortion
In a recent interview with Andrew Denton, Madonna has said that she wants to challenge the Pope regarding the Catholic Church’s opposition to abortion. Not only that, but she double-down and said that Jesus would support a woman’s right to choose. Is it just me, or is Madonna looking and sounding like the product of a computer-generated deep fake? But there’s a fundamental problem with her approach here, and it’s that it betrays the underlying feminist rhetoric of #NoUterusNoOpinion. Because both the Pope and Jesus are men. So, doesn’t that mean that their opinions should be automatically excluded? For example,…
Teen Vogue encourages young girls to become prostitutes
Teen Vogue, who this year told their young audience that abortion is safer than giving birth, and offered advice on obtaining abortions without parental consent, is now encouraging teenage girls to become prostitutes. The online teen magazine published a defence of prostitution, suggesting sex work is just as legitimate a career choice as being a doctor. In the piece titled, Why Sex Work Is Real Work, Dr Tlaleng Mofokeng outlandishly claimed being a sex worker is essentially no different to being a doctor with a medical degree. “I am a doctor,” she said, “an expert in sexual health, but when…
World Health Organisation says, being transgender is no longer a disorder or a mental health problem
As of May 2019 persons who suffer transgender dysphoria or gender identity issues will no longer be referred to by medical practitioners worldwide as persons with a mental or behavioural disorder. The International Health Classification for ‘Transgender persons’ has officially been rebranded by the World Health Organisation (WHO) in an attempt to remove the stigma and negativity that can follow with labelling someone as having a mental disorder. According to WHO‘s recently updated International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11), “The ICD is the foundation for identifying health trends and statistics worldwide and contains around 55,000 unique codes for injuries, diseases and…
Open Borders: Germany acknowledges the existence of “no-go zones” for its Jewish citizens who wear a yarmulke
Germany’s commissioner against anti-Semitism has issued an ambiguous warning to Jews living within Germany. Felix Klein is reported to have told Funke Media group that he “cannot advise Jews to wear yarmulkes (traditional cap) everywhere, all the time, in Germany.” CCN interpreted Klein’s warning as being the result of ‘social disinhibition (lack of restraint) and coarseness’, stating that his comments were in response to the ‘rise of attacks against Jews’ across Germany. Quoting Horst Seehofer, Germany’s interior minister, CNN said that ‘physical attacks against Jews rose from 37 in 2017 to 62 in 2018’. CCN attributed Seehofer as saying, that…
The Labor Party has abandoned Christian Australians
It is slowly starting to dawn on some Labor voters that Australians with a traditional Christian worldview are feeling somewhat targeted. Entirely unremarkable beliefs consistent with the last few millennia of Christian doctrine have somehow become as repulsive as racism. Instead of debating our ideas, self-described ‘progressives’ attribute a diagnosis of phobia, a pathological mental disorder. Labor frontbencher Chris Bowen belled the cat, warning that religious Australians believe the ALP has abandoned them, according to a report in today’s The Australian. “I have noticed as I have been around during the election campaign, and even in the days since, how…
Working out your senate vote in SA
The senate ballot paper can be daunting. This year, in SA, there are forty-two candidates, most of whose names you have never heard of before. Six of them will end up sitting in the Senate, deciding Australian Legislation for the next six years. That’s an important job, so we should look closely and think about who we will vote for. This article is, hopefully, a good starting point to work out how you will vote if you happen to be a South Australian. I’m going to introduce all the parties/candidates and the basic propositions that they represent. I’ve grouped them…
Freedom of Religion and Belief in the 21st Century: A Christian Response
There are good reasons for rejecting the diagnosis that the problem with religion is that it discriminates, and the proposed cure that it not be allowed to discriminate any longer. 1. The whole approach is putting Australian law on a radically different basis. Christianity teaches its followers to think in terms of right and wrong, but the Australian Human Rights Commission, naturally, thinks in terms of rights. In Christianity, it is a sin to bow down to idols, to murder, to commit adultery, to steal, to be covetous or proud, and so on. The basic law is summarised in the…
It would be a fatal mistake to reject The Ramsay Centre
My name is Aidan Green. I am a journalist and a proud alumnus of the University of Wollongong with a Bachelor of International Studies. Upon arrival to my degree, I was like everybody else, young, naive and left-wing. It is true what they say about the humanities faculties being taken over by the left. Throughout my three-year degree, I met only one politics lecturer who didn’t make it clear that they were left of centre. It was not until my second year where I began to think more critically and objectively, and it was not until my second year when…
Is there nothing worse than “racism”?
We need to have a sober conversation about the Coalition’s recommendations for their supporters on how to vote. Labor, The Greens, trade unions and most of mainstream media (apologies for repeating myself) are outspoken on their opinion that the party they’ve labelled as ‘racist’ should be put last by their own opponents. If anyone fails to see the self-serving agenda in this advice for classical liberals and conservatives from ‘progressive’ socialists, they are simply not looking. Firstly, if the Liberal-National Coalition fails to follow their advice, they get to virtue signal about the comfort given to ‘racists’. This may indeed…
Airline introduces non-binary gender options: ‘Fly how you identify’
United Airlines is the first off the ground company to affirm the transgender ideology by introducing non-binary gender booking options. United’s Chief Customer Officer Toby Enqvist said, “United is determined to lead the industry in LGBT inclusivity, and we are so proud to be the first U.S. airline to offer these inclusive booking options for our customers.” The airline announced last week non-binary gender options will be available for all bookings, check-ins, through all customer reward programs, and company memberships. Every customer now has the option to identify as male (M), female (F), undisclosed (U) or unspecified (X) on their…
The single most important election issue
The Australian Labor Party this week announced a new campaign policy: their intention to make abortion on demand legal and free across Australia. With this single policy they have made it impossible for any authentic Christian to vote for them, much less stay silent on the sidelines of this impending federal election. Labor outlined plans to build a new abortion facility in Tasmania, the only state without one. They also heralded their intention to change the state law in NSW, completely dismissing the rights of the residents of that sovereign state to make their own decisions about state laws, but…
Darling of the MeToo movement sued $50million in defamation lawsuit for ‘falsely’ calling herself a victim of abuse.
So many false accusations get left without consequence, and it’s about time that changes. The initial reports that Amber Heard made against Johnny Depp were not only contradicted by 87 different surveillance cameras and multiple independent witnesses, but also by the two responding police officers. In the defamation lawsuit, Depp goes into detail about his relationship with Heard and specifies several incidents of abuse towards him. In one incident, Depp claims that Heard threw a glass vodka bottle at him causing his bones to shatter and his finger to be surgically reattached. Medical documentation has been provided to support this…
‘Refugee’ on Manus Island wins more than $100k and top Australian literary award, despite not being Australian
A ‘refugee’ on Manus Island has won a Victorian Premier’s Literary Award despite not being an Australian citizen or a permanent resident. Behrouz Boochani, a Kurdish journalist, took out the non-fiction section, scoring $25,000, before going on to win the $100,000 Victorian Prize for Literature, which is said to be the most valued literary award in the country. Conditions for entry stipulate that authors must be Australian citizens or permanent residents, however organisers decided to make an exception for Boochani. .@BehrouzBoochani’s book No Friend But the Mountains: Writing from Manus Prison (@picador_aus) wins the Prize for Non-fiction. https://t.co/ItWrk9C6Jt #vpla2019 pic.twitter.com/3fkyOuTBu5…
Police Scotland investigate their own actions and find themselves innocent after running anti-Christian campaign.
Police in Scotland have investigated their own actions and conveniently found themselves to be innocent of committing a “hate crime” against Christians. The Barnabas Fund filed the complaint to the department after Police Scotland set up anti-Christian posters around their communities. The ‘Letters from Scotland’ campaign was established to tackle “hate crime” in Scotland and included letters targeting religious bigots, transphobes, and homophobes. Police also urged citisens to report any “religious hate” they see or hear. One of the posters read: “Dear BIGOTS, you can’t spread your religious hate here. End of sermon. Hate crime. Report it to stop it.” At…
Restaurant fined for telling biological male not to use women’s toilets.
A restaurant in Washington D.C. was fined after staff attempted to prevent a biological male from entering the women’s bathroom. Cuba Libre was ordered by the city to hand over $7,000 and install a sign declaring: “all individuals are allowed to use the restroom that corresponds to their gender identity or expression.” The incident occurred last year when, Charles Clymer, who now identifies as a woman named Charlotte, was asked to leave the restaurant after insisting on his right to access the female restroom. The police were eventually called and reportedly said the law was on Clymer’s side. The following…
Three Reasons why you should be concerned about Silicon Valley’s Connection to Communist China’s Golden Shield Firewall
If you’re not really into Information Technology and are not aware of what the Golden Shield project is, you’re forgiven. The majority of Chinese people either don’t care or aren’t aware of its existence either. The Golden Shield Project is Communist China’s massive firewall. It’s designed to keep a lid on dissent and ward off foreign influence on Chairman Mao’s, carefully constructed Communist culture, which was largely forced on the Chinese people during the Marxist/Maoist Cultural Revolution.[note]For a full explanation of this, see Jacques Ellul’s, 1965 publication, ‘Propaganda’.[/note] Some basic history: ‘The Golden Shield project has been in development since…
Banning the Holy Spirit and chaining the Word
As Western societies lurch from one disastrous fad to another, there have been increased efforts to ban what are called gay conversion therapies. Hollywood has naturally offered its obligatory contribution with the movie Boy Erased, Academia chipped in with a report from La Trobe University – the institution that birthed the Safe Schools Coalition – which joined with the Human Rights Law Centre and Gay & Lesbian Health Victoria to produce research to show that ‘LGBT conversion therapy remains a real problem in Australian religious communities.’ The Victorian government over 2016-2017 banned such therapy, and the Conservative government in the…
How to uproot the Christian church, a masterclass from Louis XIV
By 1685 Louis XIV had from the age of four been the King of France for 42 years, and he still had another thirty years to reign. From birth his mind and heart had been thoroughly trained to believe that God had anointed him to be France’s absolute ruler. His Huguenot subjects, the French Protestants who refused to submit to his Roman Catholic beliefs and practices, offended him. They stood outside of his thought-world. They stood against the beliefs that he cherished as true. Ultimately, he sensed that they stood outside of his control. The Huguenots offended the abysmal totalitarian…
Why are the globalists silent when it comes to totalitarian Islamic aggression in Sudan?
In a 2006 article written for the Stanford Journal of International Relations, called “Responding To Genocide In Sudan,”[note]Doane, S.M 2006 Responding to Genocide in Sudan: Barriers to Peace, International Indifference, and The Need for Tough Diplomacy, Stanford Journal of International Relations sourced 19th April 2017 from web.stanford.edu[/note] Stephan M. Doane lays out reasoning for a much needed, tougher international stand on the issues plaguing Sudan. The article is dated, but raises, on an academic level, awareness about the plight of many South Sudanese people, who are stuck in a cycle of constant violence. Many of whom are Christians. Doane’s piece is well…
