It turned out ok, feared we would defend some faiths and insult others
OH it did inform us workers are evil Ignoring the fact they for the most part are the faithful But it remain the truth, how this bill is formed will be very important If it divides it is a failure if it unites well done No easy task Posted by Belly, Wednesday, 17 July 2019 7:18:06 AM

"Australian state formally came into being in 1901 the Constitution was at pains to make clear we were a secular democracy. Section 116 says:
"The Commonwealth shall not make any law for establishing any religion, or for imposing any religious observance, or for prohibiting the free exercise of any religion, and no religious test shall be required as a qualification for any office or public trust under the Commonwealth." In the process of drafting the Constitution churches argued for recognition of God and that all law ultimately derives from God, but these were rejected. A restrained reference to “Almighty God” was included in the preamble but not in the Constitution itself. In light of this it is nothing more than mythology to suggest Australia was established as a Christian country. We have been intentionally secular ever since we began." http://scottjhiggins.com/we-are-not-a-christian-country-never-have-been-never-will-be-never-want-to-be/ We are a secular nation and the PM allowing himself to be filmed having a sing-song at Hillsong goes against the intentions of the Constitution.

We find common ground ise mise but in truth hill song repells me for other than that
Why please someone tell me why servants of Christ [not in fact just in name] so very often are pedophils And too why so many cover for them In this case a nine year old was told by the head of the CASH FOR CHRIST Church, you are to blame [for an act by his father] IF Christianity can stop the crime, stop the cover up, only then can it return to a place in our lives and claim leadership I doubt such a Church will even try Posted by Belly, Wednesday, 17 July 2019 1:27:56 PM

"Why please someone tell me why servants of Christ [not in fact just in name] so very often are pedophils"
Because the churches and other organizations have been infiltrated by homosexual paedophiles abetted/encouraged by the leaders in paedophilia, mainly aetheists. http://www.conservapedia.com/Homosexuality_and_pedophilia Posted by Is Mise, Wednesday, 17 July 2019 1:57:38 PM

I thought Australia was a democratic society, not a secular one. The difference being that the laws would reflect the people who vote for them, not reflect a stance on religion that it means to be secular. What this means is that if a large enough population is Christian then that would also be reflected in the laws and traditions of the area. Having a separation of religion and state doesn't mean that that everything of a religious nature will be done away with. That would also include holidays and weekends. If the community favors those days off, then as a democracy, having those days off are a reflection of the people in it.
