On Cults: read the Wikipedia item on Jonestown to get an idea of how it affected different followers. Some pleaded with Leo Ryan to help them get out,others were delegated to follow him back to the plane and murder him. Jones was feted by President and Mre Carter - not their fault. Now look at footage of young people screaming in fear at the return of Trump. Then there's the ABC. The mind boggles.( Whatever I read and write here gets constantly covered with full page ad's )

Hi festus,
Our young grand niece become involved with a very well known mob in Sydney, who exploit religion as a profit making business in the quasi American evangelical style (its a fundo cult), you may recall Morrison involves himself in such shenanigan's (sometimes referred to as the "Happy Clappers"). The niece was given over to an older male "confidant", when the opportunity arose the "confidant" tried to have it off with her. Complaint to the "Church" seen niece on the outer, and the "confidant" forgiven for any slight transgression. Well that ended that! Posted by Paul1405, Tuesday, 7 January 2025 8:13:40 AM

Some are predicting April for the election. Make sure you organise to take leave at this time (or prior) to hand out election materials for your favorite Traditionalist cause.
I notice that the Family First Party does quite well in certain places- not sure of what their policies and history are, but a brief look indicates I wouldn't agree with them. However they like to attack the Greens, which is creditable. A bit of a dark horse. Posted by Canem Malum, Tuesday, 7 January 2025 11:27:08 AM

There are those that want to discredit others as cults in order to stop the public listening to them... I read as widely as possible in order to get a good cross section of information. I actively seek out discredited information because someone doesn't want it to be heard.... Sometimes I agree that it should be discredited, usually not... in either case I want to be the one to make the decision to censor the information or not. Trump never promoted drinking disinfectant, as I understand, despite what Woke/ Marxist's would have us believe. Trump said that if simple common disinfectant is able to kill Covid external to the body (in vitro) then there must be some simple common way to kill it in the body (in vivo). http://www.cnbctv18.com/healthcare/covid-19-treatment-update-here-is-a-list-of-all-drugs-used-in-india-their-pros-and-cons-6322301.htm Ivermectin- http://www.nature.com/articles/s41429-021-00491-6 Posted by Canem Malum, Tuesday, 7 January 2025 11:55:31 AM

With a New Year and an election ahead of us it is
about time that we should recognise that today Australia is a diverse and multicultural nation with a rich heritage. Many Australians feel a sense of pride in the country's achievements and its unique itdntity. It's important to recognise that Australia's history is a complex tapestry of different experiences and perspectives. Before we choose to vote we need to make sure that who we choose to vote for is a registered political party. For example the Family First party in Victoria is deregistered after a review by the Victorian Electoral Commission. It failed to meet the statutory requirement to prove that it has at least 500 eligible members on the Victorian register of electors. It cannot register as a political party until after the next state election in 2026. Posted by Foxy, Tuesday, 7 January 2025 1:55:39 PM
