hallelujah!

 

this morning on national television, a prominent New South Wales church leader has claimed corona virus restrictions on religious gatherings are bordering on discrimination. I find it odd that religious leaders can make statements, on national television no less and yet they don't seem to have their house in order.

take this prominent New South Wales church leader for example. His father, also a pastor, didn't discriminate when he serially and sexually abused nine boys between the ages of seven and twelve. Even confessed to one of the crimes. This prominent New South Wales church leader allegedly used his position within the denomination to conceal the crimes of the father. The solution? It's O.K, we forgave him!

maybe a few other examples that would go some way to addressing the institution of this prominent New South Wales church leader and getting their house in order. Being financially transparent, discriminating against homosexuals, a member lying about having cancer and where the funds he raised went, just to name a few.

I know this goes some way to the political but this prominent New South Wales church leader traveled all the way to America to meet the President of the United States with our Prime Minister. He was promptly shunned by the President and call it a hunch but, probably wanted nothing to do with the serial pedophile apologist. Kind of makes me think, wouldn't it be nice if the media here applied the same standard here?

I once worked with a devotee of the church of this prominent New South Wales church leader. I was having a conversation with a work mate about a news article on the television last night that scientists have discovered that people have a genetic disposition to observing and following religion, to which she promptly, loudly and abruptly interjected

"I don't believe that!!

We had no idea this person was behind us, let alone in the room. My response was well, thanks for your contribution to the conversation you had absolutely no part in. Also, doesn't your response come across as an oxymoron? As far as belief goes - that's all you have. Maybe use your precious belief to disprove this scientific research. But my recently lost internal dialogue was screaming

"Butt out you creepy freak!!

an internal dialogue I wish the media in this country would apply to this prominent New South Wales church leader.
