Do Christians need a Christian prime minister? – “Recently disendorsed NSW Liberal candidate, David Barker, expressed concern that Julia Gillard was “anti-God” and that a non-Liberal vote would be a vote for Muslims, thus reintroducing religion, kicking and screaming in protest, to the campaign agenda.” Excellent critique of theocratic Christianity by Greg Clarke.
Election ignores marginalised says Anglicare – Sydney Morning Herald reports, “The poor and marginalised will be left out of this year’s election debate as leaders focus on middle Australia, the Christian charity Anglicare says.”
Greg Clarke’s wingman, John Dickson, has a great piece on the Christian vote at SMH: http://www.smh.com.au/opinion/politics/in-the-political-realm-birds-of-a-feather-dont-necessarily-flock-together-20100728-10vy3.html
I’ve been blogging through a few of these things, including a (shock?) vote for the Greens, and Christian anarchism! 😀
Cheers
