(Photo credit: Wikipedia ) The ABC online news is reporting that, Liberal Senator Cory Bernardi has called on former Liberal leader and current Communications Minister Malcolm Turnbull to stop publicly advocating gay marriage or quit the ministry. "If Malcolm Turnbull wants to talk about fringe issues outside party policy, he should resign from the frontbench," Senator Bernardi told the ABC. "Our longstanding party position is that marriage is between a man and a woman. Our frontbenchers need to reflect that in any comments they make. When you are a frontbencher there is no room for a personal view." Senator Bernardi correctly has identified that Turnbull is speaking publically contrary to party policy on homosexual marriage to either placate his Sydney pro- homosexual electorate or he is seeking to unseat the Prime Minister by causing a division in his own ranks.   Mr Turnbull lost the

Prime Ministers of Australia against immoral Homosexual Marriage and Gay zealots

English: Tony Abbott in 2010. (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Prime Minister Tony Abbott says same-sex couples who married in the ACT knew there was a possibility their marriages would be annulled. Around 30 same-sex couples knowing that this legislation was faulty based on lies from ACT Labor and Greens politicians, were married in Canberra in the five-day window before the ACT's same-sex marriage law were overturned.  On Thursday, the High Court unanimously ruled that the ACT's laws were inconsistent with the Federal Marriage Act and were therefore unconstitutional. The ruling is a victory for the Commonwealth , the nation, thinking people, churches, charities, businesses, logic, morality, children, families and millions of ordinary Australians.  Mr Abbott says his position on the issue has not changed and he remains opposed to gay marriage . At least we have a strong leader, not like Mr Turnbull who is playing to appease both sides of the fence. Abbott correctly

Kevin Rudd wants to force immoral homosexual marriage onto all Australians

Hon. Kevin Rudd MP, Prime Minister of Australia (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Kevin Rudd promised he will fast-track same-sex marriage if re-elected. If the Prime Minister has his way, marriage could be redefined by the end of the year. But it will only happen if enough MPs vote for change. You can read below what he told supporters in an email released just minutes after the debate. Please email your local MP today and remind them of your support for man-woman marriage. Ask them to commit to supporting the current definition of marriage if they are re-elected. Kevin Rudd’s 100 day plan to redefine marriage would further undermine the idea that kids deserve, wherever possible, a mum and a dad. There is no practical discrimination against same-sex couples under Australian law . There is no need to change the marriage law . If we wish to retain marriage in its current form it is important that we vote for candidates, regardless of party affiliation, who support marriage. If your l

Why does Kevin Rudd want to divide Australia over homosexual immoral marriage?

English: Kevin Rudd, 26th Prime Minister of Australia. (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) The ABC has reported "Gay marriage advocates have welcomed the Prime Minister's "important" move towards legalising same-sex marriage, but warn it is not a reform Labor can achieve alone. During last night's leaders' debate Kevin Rudd promised that if re-elected, he would take the first steps towards making gay marriage a reality, describing it as a "mark of decency to same-sex couples". He said a bill on the issue would come before parliament within 100 days if Labor wins another term, and his party would be allowed a conscience vote . Opposition Leader Tony Abbott said it was "an important issue" but would not commit to a conscience vote.  Rodney Croome , the national director of the Australian Marriage Equality lobby group, has welcomed Mr Rudd's position on the issue. But he says gay marriage has little chance of being legalised in Australia

Australian Public opinion on Homosexual Marriage

Image
A nationally representative sample of 1204 Australian adults was interviewed on the topic of same sex marriage . Selection for inclusion in the survey was random, and participation was voluntary. The survey showed that: (1) When questions were asked of a similar nature to those asked in widely published opinion polls , the results were much the same, namely, that 58% of Australians agree that same sex couples should have the right to marry . (2) However, the current survey went further and also asked if Australians support or oppose changing the Marriage Act to include same sex marriage. Only 49% supported changing the Marriage Act. (3) The current survey also found that Australians are quite divided in their opinion of this, with large gaps between men and women, between those with religious affiliations and non-religious people, between those with different political views, and between older and younger Australians. Those most in favour of change are women, younger Australians,
