Australia: Marxism and Homosexuality -gender fluidity

Image
It has not been a good week for avowed Marxist and Safe Schools Coalition co-founder Roz Ward who is now under suspension from her university job. She earlier resigned from a Victorian Government committee following the leak of her Facebook post criticising the Australian flag as “racist”. New Matilda   reports that she has been stood down by Latrobe University for having “undermined public confidence in … you as a person associated with the Safe Schools Program.” Further, her conduct has “damaged the reputation of the Safe Schools Program and aligns the Safe Schools program with views that have nothing to do with the program, and its message and content.” As one Christian commentator has noted: “Raise a legitimate complaint about what our national flag represents … and all hell breaks loose.” Yet as David Ould also points out,”this lady has pushed a really awful political agenda upon our schools and she was untouchable.” Suddenly the debate over the Safe School C

Children discarded in the Homosexual Debate

Flyers featuring photos of crying children with slogans such as "I need my mum and dad" are being distributed as part of a campaign against same-sex marriage. The flyers have angered gay radical activist who are outraged that children are being used to spread healthy family views on the eve of the election. However, the lobby group behind the flyers say they are designed to bring children's rights into the same-sex marriage debate. The flyers are circulating in electorates in Queensland , NSW and Victoria and urge people to vote against Liberal, Labor and Independent candidates who support gay marriage.

The flyer says: "When gay and lesbian marriage is taught in kindy and school, children will be led to believe that kids have no right to a mum and dad"

Kevin Rudd declares war on Marriage

In recent years gay "marriage" has had no realistic chance of being legislated or recognised at a federal level in Australia as both ex-Prime Minister Julia Gillard and opposition leader Tony Abbott were staunchly opposed.  However, on Sunday night during an election debate with second-time Prime Minister Kevin Rudd , everything changed and “marriage equality” is now a high profile election issue. Sunday evening saw the first of the three televised debates between Prime Minister Kevin Rudd MP and Opposition Leader, Tony Abbott MP, in the lead-up to the national elections on the 7 th  of September. Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd The debate was driven by questions being fired from a panel of Australian political journalists on issues such as the economy, health, aged care, education and border protection. At the last, and before the leaders gave their summary addresses, the moderator, Skynews journalist David Speers , fired off his own question on same-se

Australian Marriage equality make up poll results

A Galaxy research poll commissioned by Australian Marriage Equality was released today concluded that 53% of Australians who identify as Christians support same-sex marriage, while 41% oppose.    Yet a 2009 Galaxy Poll revealed that 86% of Australians, including those in Labor Party heartland, believe children should be reared by their biological mum and dad wherever possible.   It all depends on how questions are asked, and the Australian Marriage Equality shaped the questions, and defined what a Christian is, a self declaration a person who attends church weekly, a person who adheres to scriptures?  We don't know do we? Australian Marriage Equality spokesperson, Malcolm McPherson, have stated, "Christian groups that oppose marriage equality like the Australian Christian Lobby are entitled to their view, but they do not represent the majority of Australian Christians"  These broad statement hold very little truth. The biased research poll was released ahead of the r

Gays manipulate Passport wording for Father and Mother

Image via Wikipedia GAY parents could win the right to not be referred to as a mum or dad, but instead ' parent 1' or 'parent 2' in passport applications. They would have the option of choosing "parent 1" and "parent 2", instead of mother and father, under a proposal being considered by the Government for its new electronic passport application system. Gay rights groups applauded the potential for gender-neutral forms in Australia , but family groups expressed concern. Is this political correctness gone mad ?  Australian Family Association spokeswoman Terri Kelleher said the move undermined the traditional family model. "It would break down the understanding of a family and family relationships; how long until they just use parent one and parent two?" she said. "It would reflect the make-up of families across Australia," she said. Victorian Gay & Lesbian Rights Lobby spokeswoman Sarah Rogan said it would be a "progr
