We had a so called Australian Conservative Party at the last Federal election, ttbn was a member. They scored less than half a percent of the popular vote, and then disappeared up their own arse, leaving the mug punter members out of pocket. Most of these members left out in the cold are now sniffing about the Palmer Party or One Nation.

Well it looks like I don't know as much as I thought
I did about the two major parties.

I have always assumed conscience votes were allowed on
both sides of politics. At least they should be allowed.

Hi Foxy,

The gay marriage vote in Federal parliment was a conscience vote. They are rear but they do happen from time to time.

Can a Green MP publickly espouse the use of fossil fuelled power stations?
Can a member of The Conservation Society publicly push for the culling of koalas?
Can a member of the Kiata Country Club say that their members must wear clothes at all times?
Can a biker drive a Rolls Royce to a club rally?

Should a religious organization be allowe to expel a person who denies, publicly that there is a God?

Can Elephant Bob from the Shooters and Hooters Party turn veggie and start living on carrot sticks?

Issy I have bad eyes, but what's your excuse. Did you get to shoot a few Boers.

"Should a religious organization be allowe to expel a person who denies, publicly that there is a God?"

Should a person who publicly denies that there is god be in a religious organisation in the first place? Anyone that silly should expect to be kicked out. I don’t understand why an atheist would want to have anything to do with a religious organisation.

However, if the organisation is a Christian school, it is very unlikely that an atheist would be kicked out. The Catholic system my wife taught in didn't insist on staff being Catholic or even Christian. They accepted Muslim students. There is nothing in the Bible to say they shouldn't.

However, the big deal now seems to be homosexuality and transgenderism - which is dealt with in the Bible, and is a sin. People who complain and shout 'discrimination' to any objections Christians might have behaviour which conflicts with their faith are actually expecting those Christians to to deny their faith. What a bloody cheek!
