Dr. Ben Carson Accepts Role as Trump’s Faith Advisor and Emissary for Freedom
“In order to reestablish ourselves as ‘that shining city upon a hill,’ we must acknowledge we are One Nation Under God…”
DeSantis Questioning U.S. Military Involvement in Ukraine Is Not a Refusal to Defend Freedom
“Drawing the U.S. into the conflict draws us closer to a hot war between the world’s two largest nuclear powers.”
Freedom Is Being Thrown Away in the West While Being Fought for in Communist China
“Victorians with a clear case of Stockholm Syndrome and Battered Woman Syndrome are pleased as punch to vote back in their thuggish leader, while liberty-loving Chinese protesters are facing certain arrest, imprisonment, torture and death to get rid of theirs as they stand up for freedom.”
Who Is Peter Dutton, and Will He Fight for Freedom and Reclaim the Line?
“As hopeful as Dutton’s election is for centre-right Christians and classical liberals, until they see proof of the new LNP leader’s resolve, and effectiveness, Dutton’s election will mean diddly squat.”
The Canberra Rally for Freedom Is a Massive Game-Changer
There is one thing that will always be with us: those who want to tyrannically rule over others. But there is also this: those who will resist such tyranny.
The Founding Fathers on Freedom
“Whether we talk about Columbus, or the Pilgrim Fathers, or the First Thanksgiving, or the American Revolution, it seemed like God’s guiding hand was upon this nation.”
No, It Is Not ‘Freedom Day’ in Melbourne – Not Even Close
“We need a prisoner swap here: Free all of us Victorians and lock up Andrews. Throwing away the key might be a good step as well.”
Why I’m Still a Religious Conscientious Objector to the Vaccine
“Is the fact that ethical vaccines for COVID are not being developed rather heavily predicated on the fact that we cooperated with the system over the last few decades in using morally objectionable common childhood vaccines where we could have demanded ethical alternatives that already existed?”
Australia and the Loss of Freedom: Why People Like Daniel Andrews Are Dangerous to All
“Now the state can decide who you can and cannot have on your payroll based on people’s private medical choices which should be protected under the 1988 privacy act. How has that even come into being in a country like Australia? Even more, how has that come into being without a major societal uproar?”
Another Australian MP Breaks With Totalitarianism in a Bold Stand for Freedom
“Davies, and her diverse, but like-minded supporters within the ranks, are putting themselves and their careers between the public and the rise of totalitarianism.”
Margaret Court and the Rise of Religious Persecution
Margaret Court is not only Australia’s greatest ever tennis player, but she is also proving to be something of a lightning rod regarding religious freedom.
Are Our Fears of the Coronavirus Undermining Our Freedoms?
“Let’s not momentarily give away our power to our political voice, to our freedoms and rights, just because of our momentary fear.”
Ordinary people can’t be trusted with freedom, says former high court justice
Former High Court justice Kirby’s nasty and hostile opinion letter warns religious freedom will let people publish opinions which are… nasty and hostile. “Religious freedom bill ‘will sustain nastiness and hostility’, Michael Kirby warns”… or at least, that’s what the headline in The Guardian article warns. Allow me to interpret that for you. “The God-given social liberty to disagree, debate, articulate and act in accordance with individual convictions (a.k.a religious freedom) will sometimes be used by people who aren’t very happy and they may say some things a nicer person wouldn’t.” What former High Court justice Michael Kirby is really saying is…
How environmentalism became a religious cult
If you own a screen, chances are you’ve heard about this week’s climate strikes in a city near you. Chances are you were also recently introduced to a 16-year-old called Greta Thunberg. So what’s all the hype about? The protests have been organised by Extinction Rebellion (XR), whose website states: We are facing an unprecedented global emergency. Life on Earth is in crisis: scientists agree we have entered a period of abrupt climate breakdown, and we are in the midst of a mass extinction of our own making. Greta Thunberg, a Swedish school student, spoke at the group’s ‘Declaration of Rebellion’ held in London…
A lesson for Kristina Keneally on the basics of freedom and faith
Kristina Keneally is hopelessly muddled about how freedom works, specifically freedom of speech and freedom of religion. I’m sure she’s had it explained to her before, but inexplicably comprehension yet eludes her – an alarming observation to make of a Federal Senator. I think leftists are often so mired in the prejudice of their anti-freedom propaganda they often end up shadow boxing, fighting against things no serious person believes. Take, for example, yesterday’s eleven-part Twitter challenge to the Prime Minister doubling down on her insistence that someone who tweeted something vile he then regretted, deleted and apologised for three years…
Eric Abetz’s historical stand against those who sacrifice freedom in the name of ‘progress’
Eric Abetz gave one of the most important short speeches in Australian political history this week. Yet few Australians would know he even spoke a word, let alone know who Abetz is or what he stands for. Eric Abetz was born in Germany in 1958 and came with his family to Australia in 1961. In the 1980s, Abetz worked his way through ‘University as a part-time taxi driver, and farmhand. Once completing his law degree, he went on to practice law in Hobart’s northern suburbs’. He joined the Liberal Party in 1976 and was appointed to the Senate in February…
The Folau and Felix cases show, when marriage is redefined freedoms are taken away
Like Australia’s Israel Folau, Felix Ngole from the UK, is a litmus test regarding freedom of religion, as well as freedom of speech, in the Western World. And for all those concerned about the future of freedom of speech in this country, it couldn’t have come at a more opportune time. As John Steenhof, the managing director of Human Rights Law Alliance Limited, wrote in The Sydney Morning Herald: Britain’s second-highest court handed down a decision on religious freedom yesterday that will send chills down the collective spine of Rugby Australia. In contrast, Israel Folau and his team will be…
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…
WATCH: Muslim Labor MP Anne Aly criticises the Prime Minister for “pointing fingers at radical Islam,” says there are “bigger threats than religious terror.”
Muslim Labor MP Anne Aly has criticised Scott Morrison for his response to the recent Islamic terrorist attack in Melbourne saying, the Prime Minister “needs a little terrorism 101 before pointing fingers at radical Islam.” The comments were made after the Prime Minister rightly called on Muslim leaders to take “special responsibility” for stamping out radicalism in their communities. “I am the first to protect religious freedom in this country, but it also means I must be the first to call out religious extremism,” the Prime Minister said. “Religious extremism takes many forms around the world, and no religion is…
Senator Cory Bernardi says, we need to have a frank discussion about freedom, identity politics and political correctness
Senator Cory Bernardi has said there needs to be a frank discussion in Australia about religious freedom, identity politics and political correctness. “The issue is about how do we maximise freedom in this country, freedom of speech, freedom of association, without getting bogged down in too much identity politics or political correctness.” WATCH: Senator @corybernardi says we need to have a frank discussion about religious freedom, identity politics and political correctness in Australia https://t.co/1NRmb6WDWW #auspol #freespeech #freedom #religiousfreedom #ssm pic.twitter.com/Znow2qms3n — Aust Conservatives (@AuConservatives) July 11, 2018
