Probably different for other churches but the only Christians I've really known well are Seven Day Adventists, can't recall them ever even mentioning gays let alone constantly hating on them.

Surely you jest?
 
Fitch credit ratings is part of the leftist world?

Now I have heard it all.
The ridiculous thing is, these RW trolls on here do their cause no justice at all.

Can you honestly imagine a single person reading through the dopey, unreconstructed drebbidge that some like our friend here post as "argument", and go - "Y'know what? I've had it all wrong. I'm thinking there might just be something to this neo-conservatism after all."

I am thinking that religious intolerance doesn’t come from the religious, but those who wish to sow hate and dissent in the community for their own personal benefit. (That is, political operatives and supporters on SM)

No one can surely argue that the respect for humanity and sense of ethics, that underpin human rights, often derive from our religious beliefs. Certainly, the major religions of the world emphasise our common humanity and the dignity and equality of individuals. Respect for fellow human beings, and of tolerance thereof, remains a principle of the world's major religions. Most countries reinforce their respect for religious differences through their constitutions. Certainly the ‘no bias rule’ is a major component of the principle of natural justice.
I think you're a bit naive if you think that religious intolerance doesn't come the religious.
Churches are organisations just like any other, full of people who sow hate and dissent in the community for their own personal benefit, as you said.
Don't make the mistake of putting Church people on a pedestal. You will only be disappointed. Judge individuals on their merit rather than their denomination.

So you’ve hardly had anything to do with the majority of Christians, only had experience with one type who you claim don’t have problems
with gays so Christianity must not have issues with gays.

Are you taking the piss?
 
Anybody who tries to defend the Liberal Governments of the last 30 years as "Christian" governments, ones that demonstrate Christian values, is fooling themselves. This current one is the worst of the lot.
The rest of us aren't fooled.

Cant remember an election in which Christian values were an issue, but certainly notiiced many on both sides keen to be interviewed in the grounds of a Church.

IMHO the biggest hypocrites are those only offering picture opportunities at Christmas & Easter, yet their own sides dont call them out. Plenty on show here, into Morrison yet cheerleaders for Shorten, very shallow.

I'm no economist, so just thinking logically it should easing housing costs because first time buyers or upsizers/downsizers etc aren't competing against so many investors, who have a big advantage.
Mortgage stress is huge ATM and would be having a significant impact on consumer spending I would think. So lower housing costs should equal more disposable income.
Not sure how many millions of dollars go towards negative gearing each year, but it would be good to have that money in government programs instead of going towards building individual wealth. Maybe towards raising Newstart allowance. That should also increase people's spending power.
Obviously there are a lot of other factors involved, but this could be one that is for the greater good.

Make very little, if any real difference IMHO, as a part of a bigger package worth a go. New building starts are already down & that will show over the next few months.

If I'm to be honest, leadership during natural disasters doesn't by itself normally have much effect on a politician's electoral prospects (e.g. - Anna Bligh's leadership during the 2010/11 QLD floods did nothing for her in the 2012 QLD election).

His handling of this might be one of many things that eventually turns the Australian public off him, not unlike with Tony Abbott - but that remains to be seen.

I think attacking ScoMo for taking a holiday with his family when he'd be pretty much useless while these fires are going on is ridiculous. I also think suggesting that there is "something seriously wrong with you leftist outrage merchants" is inflammatory and divisive rather than constructive and solution-focused.
That’s all the leftist idiot have! Attack no solutions!

fire fighting cuts
Declining of back burning by council and state governments

NSW Rural Fire Service Inspector Ben Shepherd has revealed investigators are close to charging more than a dozen suspected arsonists believed to have deliberately lit bushfires as the state remains in the grip of an ongoing bushfire crisis.


A whole range of very concerning issues!
Yet all the idiot left to is shout and scream like a pack of ******ed children!

‘and when we had a royal commission in Victoria. All the right leaning press (and indeed scomo) wanted to do was crucify the police chief.

all that energy and scrutiny could have highlighted awareness of issues like the ones you describe

instead it was a witch hunt

Sexism, racism, slavery, homophobia, paedophilliia, sex slavery, infanticide, genocide etc. not only condoned, but commanded by the god of Abraham.
Please don’t lecture me on this point or I will eviscerate your premise and leave only scorched earth, much like most of the eastern seaboard.

The have pictures in front of a church is to appeal to voters who rate religion as important. Scomo is more active than that but the issue is that his brand of Christianity is non mainstream, perceived to be divisive, has rules that permit and encourage the accumulation of wealth (counter to gospel) and whose current leader is more interested in shiny new buildings than helping actual disadvantaged
 

That doesn’t mean climate change isn’t an issue or are you that stupid?
