How is it that the Western world has taken up the defense of the aggressor of October 23, 2023? This photo says it all for Australia. A pro-Hamas crowd outside a Synagogue in Sydney chanting “From the River to the Sea” without any objection from the police but as soon as a Jew on the other side of the street unfurls an Israeli flag the Police rush over and proclaim he will be arrested for “Breach of the Peace” if he does not move on! When will this end? Will it end when every Jew in Australia packs up and goes back to Israel? Or will it really ever end? Does hate such as Islam has toward Israel/Jews and all non-believers ever end this side of death? The HOPE of the world is the Lord Jesus Christ!
John 1:11 He came unto his own (Jewish people, Israel), and his own received him not. 12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name
Rupert Murdoch’s Media empire is in trouble. Here in Australia about the ONLY conservative news one can get is on Murdoch’s Sky and then it is sparse and most of it after 5pm. However, as that may be it is still the only “conservative” news one will see on television but now that is up in the air. Here is a paragraph from the Leftist The Conversation. Note their statement in red. That is the kind of news we will receive here in Australia if this lawsuit is not settled with Lachlan leading.
“In Australia, News operates in a virtual monopoly, so it can shapeshift with fewer consequences. But the US market is awash with emerging right-wing alternatives, each of which is eager to steal a share of the Fox audience. These viewers are the people who make Fox such a valuable commodity, and they’re the reason why it’s been so hard to stand up to Trump and his anti-democratic tactics, even on the odd occasions when Rupert and Lachlan wanted to.”
The following is an email I recently received concerning a Catholic University here in Australia.
“Sometimes I think we live in a clown world.
Consider the circus that was the Australian Catholic University this week, where some spectacular scenes took place.
A speech was given by prominent former union leader and Labor figure Joe de Bruyn – a very “controversial” speech.
And his alleged offence? To have raised concerns about abortion and same-sex ‘marriage’.
Here are some excerpts from his speech – provided to the uni a week in advance:
“I have for several decades been involved in opposing abortion, the deliberate killing of unborn human beings.”
“Today, over 80,000 unborn children are killed by abortion in Australia each year. Worldwide, the estimated number is 42 million each year.”
“Abortion is the single biggest killer of human beings in the world, greater than the human toll of World War II. It is a tragedy that must be ended.”
“[Marriage between man and woman was] instituted by God at the origin of humanity in the Garden of Eden.”
“Every society on Earth at all times” recognised marriage as being between opposite sexes.
I can’t imagine anyone reading this email would disagree with any of these observations, much less be offended by them.
So, a prominent Catholic figure, speaking in line with Catholic teaching on life and marriage, on the grounds of a Catholic university. You wouldn’t think that would be a problem, would you?
But, oh, how messed up things have become.
Above:Joe de Bruyn stays seated as the ALP National Conference gives Senator Penny Wong a standing ovation for her speech on same-sex ‘marriage’ (Melbourne, 2015).
Not only did Joe’s comments cause a mass walkout by poor triggered snowflakes – I’m going to say it like it is – but the university is now arranging refunds for tickets and offering (wait for it) counselling!
Yes, you read correctly. Not only were these trauma-stricken students denied a speech that was all about them and how wonderful they were, but they were subjected to the idea that there were some huge issues out there affecting the very foundations of our society.
Unfortunately, this idea was apparently so upsetting that “face-to-face individual and group counselling sessions” needed to be arranged on campus to deal with “hurt and discomfort”.
Wow.
So, what to make of this?
If mere ideas cause you to need counselling, you shouldn’t be at university. Full stop.
It’s time for the Catholic hierarchy to direct the Australian ‘Catholic’ University to change its name and cut it loose. There are far better places the Church can direct its educational efforts.
If you’re a student – or the parent or grandparent of one – please give serious consideration to your study choices. Thing were rotten on most campuses well before I ever set foot on one 25 years ago. But when even supposedly faith-based institutions are now throwing their beliefs under the bus, it’s time to vote with your feet. The huge growth in online education provides even more options. And university is not the only pathway.
I’ve met Joe de Bruyn. He’s a good man – and while my personal politics lie elsewhere, I was impressed by the way he fought the good fight within the Labor Party for years. He did this with integrity and utterly against the tide. It’s absolutely commendable that he’s still speaking out. Joe, we salute you.
I could go on, but I fear it would develop into a rant about our entire education system.
I’ll simply say this: in an era of universities being reduced to mere degree factories, of chasing foreign students for their dollars, and of severe neglect for technical and trade careers, everyone from today’s students to incoming governments are going to have to make some hard decisions.
The Climate Change whackos are meeting in Samoa along with climate warrior King Charles! The following article tells how scared the Leftist climate scamming Australian government is if President Trump does win the White House again! President Trump’s win means a lot to not only those in the USA but to us in Australia as well!
The sweet Psalmist of Israel wrote in Psalm 139:14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. 15 My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. 16 Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.
Not that those intent on murdering the unborn would care what the Bible has to say but Paul did write in Romans 1:29, 30 that there are those who are “filled with all unrighteousness,…wickedness, maliciousness; …murder…30 …haters of God, despiteful, proud,…” There will be a day of reckoning before the Creator!
However, enlightened man today will NOT submit to the Creator so therefore the murder of the unborn is just another form of “healthcare”. The following is from the Australia’s left leaning THE CONVERSATION .
