Lego, my apology. I should have directed my comments to the extremely right wing Liberals who I don't need to name. We all know who they are.
I have voted Liberal all my life, but like a lot of my fellows I am dismayed by the way the party has headed since Abbott got to be the opposition leader.

Dear oh dear. Decades of feminism/marxism creating a generation that has never been so self entitled, full of self righteousness and perversion at the same time, virtue signallers and unable to tell that a baby with a penis is a boy and a vagina is a girl. Oh what a 'wonderful' future these god deniers have set up for our grandchildren. A Parliament stacked with self interested marxist/feminist who along with the corrupt fake media demonising anyone with a little decency. The dumb q&a and getup deviants just nod and applaud any kid of deviancy.

Diver Dan. Good call mate. Interestingly, the only time the Christain Master completely lost his cool, was when he whipped the money changers (Bankers?) out of the temple, for defiling his Fathers house, and roaring as he ripped into them, how dare you defile my Father's House.

We think he was socially conscious and opposed to most things conservative, as seen in his many parables and teachings, the good Samaritan, easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the gates of heaven, the do unto others golden rule etc.

It's a long time since progressive conservatives were seen doing stuff we would label Christian? And includes the abolition of slavery, ending child labour, and the emancipation of women.

Mr Mnzie's Liberals were fiscally conservative and socially progressive pragmatists. And now swamped by the alt-right, who think that Mr Menzies Liberals, were all lefties. And only because they are now so far to the right, even moderates seem to be left of them.

They will refuse as they do to acknowledge they got it wrong and will continue to contend, we the people are not listening to them Only an electoral bloodbath a the next election will finally convince some of the brighter ones, we need a change of direction. And boy, how badly does that message need to be heard in coalition ranks!?

Christianity and conservatism are mutually exclusive belief systems or ideologies

Looks like Scott Morrison (aka ScoMo), with a bit of help from Dutton and Abbott, are unsuccessfully using in-the-gutter Trump methods.

That is ScoMo is choosing overseas issues (Embassy to Jerusalem anybody?) and scapegoats at home to scare, divide, wedge, marginalise and exploit Australians.

ScoMo and his standover henchmen are failing and will be kicked out in May 2019.

But where oh where is the Kingdom of God as taught and demonstrated by Saint Jesus of Galilee?

And what kind of comprehensive psycho-physical Spirit Breathing disciplines does any and every one have to seriously practice to become a self-sacrificial participant in the Kingdom of God as taught and demonstrated by Saint Jesus of Galilee?

Such disciplines being the necessary "price to pay" to enter into the Spirit Breathing Kingdom.

Sorry, Mr Plantagenet, I have no idea by what you mean when you say that Trump and ScoMo use "in the gutter" tactics?

In the contemporary western world's political scene, where Identity Politics rules because our societies are now fractured by multiculturalism, what is wrong with a white president in a still largely white nation appealing to white voters? President Obama was a black American who appealed to blacks and other minorities, would you say that Obama's tactics were "in the gutter?"

It was this curious double standard that always manifests itself among those who claim to be virtuous anti racists, that forced me to rethink my own previous anti racist sympathies. The biggest question for me was, "why do so called anti racists hate white people, who are usually their own race?"

Perhaps you could answer that one for me?

My own answer to this question is along these lines. The older anti racists live in a time warp, and never grew out of their generations flower power ideals. This is usually because they have never held a job outside of the public service, where among other pampered public servants', their views have become inbred.

Among the younger, they have been brainwashed by their left wing teachers and by media such as the ABC (Australian Brainwashing Corporation) to think that leftism is somehow progressive. This is reinforced by the various media organizations directed at a youth audience, who never fail to keep pumping the message that smart young people should embrace every left wing cause imaginable.

Finally, there are a proportion of people in every society who usually possess low social intelligence, and a propensity to think entirely in absolutes. Moral quandaries and moral priorities are incomprehensible to them. Morality must be black and white. Such people seem to have a compulsive need to think that they are better than everybody else, and they posses a puritanical mindset that compels them to spread their particular absolutist ideology through constant evangelism.

Which one are you?
