I don't believe that the Education Curriculum Review is
"just a sneaky way to introduce creationism into schools."

I think that Mr Pyne and other politicians within the
Party fully realise that we have a secular government in
this country (no official or state religion). That
religious laws have no legal status in Australia.
Therefore, introducing Creationism into schools would
not be wise - and would open up a whole pandora's box of
problems - which the current government does not need.
Other religious groups could then demand
the introduction of some of their teachings into schools -
and I'm sure
that neither Mr Pyne nor the current government would want
that to happen.

P Jack, there's something in your post which reveals a bias.
You say that this push toward "creationism" will make the schools more "White" and more "Christian".
First off, is it not the case that all religions teach that the world was created by divine intervention?
Secondly Christianity is not a "White" religion in 2013, quite the opposite, it's overwhelmingly a "non White" religion, you're actually describing Third World values in your condemnation of these (as yet unannounced) changes. So the values Pyne is promoting are more accurately described as "Brown" and common to all faiths, his stated aim is social inclusion and cohesion so this (as yet unstated) tactic makes perfect sense.
You have clearly hold an Anti White bias which prompted you to write this post, not a genuine concern over "creationism", presuming that you're even sincere (which 99% of Anti Racists are not) it appears that you know very little about the world around you.

It's actually quite sad,

The Loony left whingers have for 4 years made up wild and unsubstantiated predictions of what Abbott and the LNP would do, with a accuracy of 0%.

Perhaps this is brought on by the expectations labor set of doing exactly what they promised not to, and not doing what they promised.

So far the Coalition is doing exactly what it said it would.

Dear SM,

Let's try not to make this into a
Left versus Right debate.
Let's be better than that, and keep the
lines of communication open. Let's try
to rise above Party politics for a change.

Hell it might be even worse than they thought.

They might actually introduce some real education into the system.

Talk about horror, there "MAY" be no time available for all that lefty/aboriginal/green/bleeding heart/multiculirist pretend stuff they have shoved in over the last few years.

God imagine it, educated kids, instead of "rounded" [think left leaning] human beings coming out of our schools. The universities could close those remedial math/science/English classes they have to run now.

Sorry Foxy my sweet, there is no way the left/right/feminism can be removed from this particular debate, that is what is at the bottom of it.

Jay, I did NOT say "creationism will make schools more white". It's a greater emphasis on Westernisation within the school curriculum (which is proposed by Pyne) that will make the curriculum more white centric.

Foxy, the "creationism into schools" push within the radical elements of the coalition would fully realise it can't be achieved quickly. They would likely wait till after the next federal election, and then slip it into the curriculum under the guise of "history" or something similar (their new "politically correct" curriculum would have been firmly in place by then). Their creationism will be taught alongside evolution, as if they are both scientifically and academically equal.

Individual, was your post sarcasm/joking? Sounded like it. If it wasn't, then you should be informed that in a free, democratic society people have the basic human right to have any religious belief whatsoever. You have no right to force "your" opinion onto these people, or to forcibly stop those people from believing what they choose. Just as they have no right to force their belief onto anyone. You sound like your mind still exists in the Dark Age. Sad.

SPQR, you write that our schools are "anti-Western, anti-Christian and anti-white". Clearly you are on either cocaine or LSD, and I'd advise you to give up the drugs immediately.

Spindoc ..... this is not "speculation on what might happen". The curriculum review was only announced a day or so ago, and already (before the review has even started) we have public comments from the people involved that the purpose of the review is to increase the exposure to school children of (1) Judeo/Christianity ethics, (2)Specifically a much more "Westernised" view of our history. All the people involved are far right wing, extremely conservative, and all rigidly follow a very Westernised form of right wing Christianity. They couldn't have made their intention more clearer.

The FACT is -- Christopher Pyne handpicked 2 like minded individuals, who have theological and political views that are nearly identical to Pyne's views. This way, Christopher Pyne gets the results that Christopher Pyne wants from the review.
