Whatever beliefs a person has - as long as they do
no harm - I think that most Australians will accept
them. That's why so many people want to come and live
in this country.

Scott Morrison is a member of 'Horizon Church' a Pentecostal sect located in Sutherland Sydney, Morrisons local area. Other that receiving a government gift;

"Prime Minister Scott Morrison‘s Government has been hard at work giving taxpayer-funded handouts to the people who need it most. It’s just that, apparently, their definition of “the people who need it most” is the members of Scott Morrison’s own already pretty well-off Pentecostal church.”

In mid-November 2019, the church was awarded $110,000 worth of public money through a Department of Home Affairs initiative known as the Safer Communities Fund for so called 'security'. Having Morrison as a church member may have not influenced the giving of public money, but I'm sure it didn't hurt.

There is no interference of religion in politics in Australia. What we do need to be concerned about is the new, proposed assault on the education system by the ultra-Left that will actually be anti- Christian; not anti-religion, just anti-Christian. Christianity is one of the "bad" things hated by the Marxist maniacs about Australia and Western civilisation.

If Morrison is genuine about his Christian beliefs he should be making a lot of noise and blocking the latest Leftist attack on our children's education. So far, he has not said a word about it.

In this country we have the power of the vote.
If we don't like what our governments are doing
(or not doing) we as voters have the power to vote
them out. And we can do that at both the federal
and state levels.

"There is no interference of religion in politics in Australia" Tony Abbott liked to hang out with Archy Pell for a little fireside chat.

Hi Paul,

Scott Morrison believes that he's been called by
God to lead Australia.

But is there a direct connection between Morrison's
religious beliefs and his political perspective?

The PM has stated that - "The Bible is not a policy
handbook," and that "Faith in Jesus Christ is not a
political agenda."
