Mr Fatpizzaman,

10) Taxes will still be around regardless, because Jesus said to 'pay to Caesar what belongs to Caesar' when the pharisees tried to trap him asking him if it was immoral or evil to pay taxes.
But you may see them imposed upon just terms, as required by the beautiful Christian Document, the Constitution. Until the atheists took over, and Menzies cut the head off the High Court, in 1952, with Order 58 rule 4 Subrule 3, High Court Rules 1952, a working man was given his daily bread, straight out of Matthew 6:9-13, before he paid taxes, but when the atheists defeated the Christians in 1972, taxes were raised without reference to just terms, and millions of people have been paying too much tax since. The Tax free threshold, in existence in 1972, was nor raised when wages were inflated 100% in two years. Taxes then became unjust on working people.

11) Anybody who takes or keeps money dishonestly will be convicted of lying to the Holy Spirit and be punished by immediately being struck dead by an invisible force.
That is exactly what should happen because jury trials were a manifestation of the Holy Spirit, but struck dead! No! repent maybe, and then forgiveness after making restitution.

12) People who practice levitation can be put to death by born again Christians praying that they hit the ground, and will.

I don’t know where you get the downie on seafood. The first Christian men’s breakfast was held on the shores of Lake Galillee where the resurrected Jesus, showed himself to a very despondent group of fishermen, and told them to throw their nets on the other side, which they did, with great success. Jesus Christ already had some fish cooked, when they came ashore. John 21:12.

I don’t know where you get the idea that Christians don’t value women. The divine partnership between a man and a woman is central to Christianity, and there are more women than men, and it is nonsense to waste half the intelligence of the human race. Women are different but equal

fatpizzaman,
1) Gay and lesbian people will be offered practical ways to escape their dysfunctional sexual identity
2) No food will be considered unclean or not kosher as identified by Acts 10: 9 - 18 unless it is dedicated to gods Acts 15: 29.
3) The Government will adopt the Churches highly sucessful parenting skills programme.
4) Women in all cases will be equal to men except in gender roles, i.e. strength, childbirth and mensuration.
5) Slavery will not exist as in the current Australian society. As Jesus came to release those in slavery, Luke 4: 18.
6)The age of consent will be restricted to married adults so as to avoid high costs of health as is the current situation.
9) The government will spend more money on employment creatioin, taking care of unemployed, orphans, widows as well as privatising education and health care
10) Taxes will reflect community needs and not be squandered on political jaunts.
13. No animals will be considered unclean, unless they are diseased or cause allergic reactions or are a public threat or nusance.

A Christian Australia would see reverence conquering wit, sobriety conquering humour and the amber darkness, the stygian pall of nothing, nothing, nothing at all.

As stated, you don't have to scratch too deep before you get these individuals like those in the vatican, with serious delusions of grandeur, wanting to dictate the behaviour of others even in the bedroom.

In so doing, I would question their understanding of the doctrine of Luv Unconditional in the 1st instance.

I assume that they argue that they "persecute" Gays & Lesbian "for there own good." Like stealing Original Australian Children. And to me, it is here that we see the hand in hand work of the political churches with the some of the great instances of crimes against humanity in the history of this world.

IF 2 Souls come together in Luv, no person has the right to interfere with that. It is regarded by some as one of the Holiest Sacraments and it can only be determined by the individuals concerned.

I personally more appreciate the God concept that requires not ritual or religion or old books, whose meanings lay for most of us long lost, but rather the acknowledgement that something of the Being of the Living God dwells within the Being of all Beings, regardless of creed, colour or otherwise. And, in the quiet and privacy of our own Being, here we may commune.

If it is our priveledge to share this in Luv with another of the choosing out of the Luv of our own Heart, then that in part is our Divine Inheritance, and may we have some small pity for those so deluded in thinking that they have the right to interfere with others in this regard.

The Lord is the Lord. He is not a toad, bacterium, walrus or human. He is not Odin, Zeus, Jupiter or Jesus Christ. It is a primitive way of thinking to regard a man as a god. To my way of thinking it is horribly wrong. It is Christian belief, but it simply sounds like blasphemy to me.

However, when you get away from the confusion of Jesus Christ and God the connection between the horrible acts of Christians and Jesus becomes perfectly clear.

"No one comes to the Father but by me" (John 14:6) is simply a bigoted and arrogant statement which was made by a bigoted and arrogant man. His followers under the delusion that he was God have acted out his bigotry and arrogance.

The Crusades where not only Muslims but Orthodox Christians, Jews, Lithuanians and other were slaughtered in the name of Christ, the Inquisition where people were burned at the stake in the name of Christ and the Wars of the Reformation where Christians slaughtered Christians in the name of Christ are some of the many examples of the Christian record of murder in the name of Christ.

I suspect a truly Christian Australia would be like the truly Christian charnel houses that were products of the truly Christian states of the Dark Ages which some Christians refer to as the Golden Age of Faith.

It would seem davidf has had a very severe case of Christian persecution, probably at the hands of Roman Catholics. He has no idea how the Christian Australia we had until 1970, in New South Wales at least has made Australia the reasonably safe and reasonably prosperous Nation it is. Christianity was replaced with Roman Catholicism in South Australia in 1927, when the great saviour of human rights, the civil jury was abolished and a Lawyer Court system established.

Lawyer Courts are an Old Testament institution adopted by the Roman Catholic Church because they believe all authority comes down from the top, whereas the courts adopted by Australia were until the lawyers started to take over, a form of government from the grass roots up. The subversion of the Australian Constitution has been brought about because non Christians wanted corruption, and Christians have been sleeping in their smugness.

We have a guaranteed Christian Australia and it looks like it looks now, but it has to have competition between the courts of the States and the Commonwealth, with both playing by the Christian rules, set out in the New Testament. Currently the Courts of Australia are more in the Levitican model, than the Christian model, taught by Jesus Christ. A Court and a Judge are not words used in the Australian Constitution. They are used in the Judiciary Act 1903 in S 2, that is a Capital C Court and a capital J Judge, coupled with the word Appeal, so that if we ever got Courts and Judges, the long suffering Australian public would have a remedy.

With courts instead of Courts, most cases in the possession list in the Supreme Court in New South Wales would be dismissed and the claiming Mortgagee ordered to comply with Christian Commonwealth Law. Currently the Judges of NSW abuse the civil rights of every Christian every day. Courts are no better in Victoria or Queensland, and a truly Christian Australia would have courts, instead of Courts, and judges instead of Judges, just as it says in the Constitution and New Testament. Forgive them
