The Church of England now wants to fiddle with the gender of God! God is non-binary squwarks that idiot, the Archbishop of Canterbury. No more 'Our Father which art in heaven' for him.

No wonder congregations are fleeing the bricks and mortar churches, with nitwits like Welby at the helm.

yuyutsu,

You initially asked questions about changing
one's race to become an Aboriginal. I answered
you. That to be legally recognised as an Aboriginal
you have to meet the criteria set by the government.
Especially to qualify for Aboriginal programs and
services (including grants).

Most people racially - are usually a mix of different
ancestries - and they often change their race on the census.
From - white, black, Asian, Hispanic, Indian, Slavic, and so on.
Now go away and leave me alone. I'm trying to be as polite as
I possibly can with you - but you seriously are becoming
a pest. Take the hint and go away. Or try to work out the answers
for yourself - with intelligence.

It's not something you usually need permission to do.

"My mummy is German and my daddy is Vietnamese , so which
part of me are which?"

By all means identify however you like. Except for Aboriginal of course

yuyutsu,

If you really want to become an "Aboriginal" - you can -
of your ancestry from which your ancestors
came. You may just meet their criteria and qualify.
Although I suspect that you too are a mix.

Yuyutsu, if you have Indian ancestry, it might show up as aboriginal having similar DNA. Test and see.

My question still hangs up in the air, in case anyone else likes to take it, but I wouldn't like to have to hold myself responsible should Foxy incurs a heart attack from my questioning here, hence I bow out.

"Which raised my question here: shouldn't we just as well be legally able to change our race (socially and medically-allowing, physically too), then enjoy the same legal exemptions (and suffer the corresponding restrictions) as those who were born into our new race have?"

I think you have to be able to prove aboriginal descent.
I have a small amount of indigenous in me and I can prove it through records of ancestry.
Also I have a book.
'Gungarlook - The Story of the Aboriginal Riley Family of the Burragorang Valley'
- by Ivy Brookman and Jim Smith, and my Grandmothers name is in it.
