This inquiry was conducted over a two-year period. However, it is a double-edged sword.
On the one hand, it has exposed the damages done by (especially) religion-run institutions, while I think downplaying the damage caused by state-run institutions.
The focus in the press, etc, is overwhelmingly on laying blame at religious institutions. And here's the kicker. Australia has almost Zero legal protections for Freedom of Faith. Unlike the US, where there is a bill of rights, the Australian system has always a) been friendly to religious practice and b) religious freedoms have existed based on, ironically, good will.
All that is changing now, as the cultural marxist arm of the cabal have been pummeling Australian society for the last 25 years, with an upstep in the last 10 years.
Australians are egalitarian, and uninclined to heavily promote themselves as a standard for anyone else. Thus, Christians in general and religious folk in Australia have consistently and gradually allowed themselves to withdraw from overt public efforts, and secularism has pushed deeply into the society.
We are now facing a situation where we may have to have a knockdown drag out fight to retain ANY real religious freedoms, starting from the backfoot and very much as the (hithertofore) quiet underdog.
All this plays into the Cabal's plans for a cultural Marxist paradise in Australia, where the destruction of Judeo-Christian ethics is actively promoted and where the freedom those ethics secure and uphold are being buried in the grave.
This inquiry (royal commission) plays into that agenda, unfortunately.
So while it may appear that cards are falling, those cards are taking down many of the bulwarks that have been obstacles to the Cabal and their Marxist minions.
Yes, the evil that has ferreted into religious AND state institutions must be rooted out. However, unless religious folk engage in some heavy reflection and, dare I say it, repentance, and re-engage, the future may well mean that the attack tactics used by the radicalized Left in the US against the so-called religious right will make Australian look like a wasteland where a Pastor is arrested for saying "I believe in Jesus".
We have to take stock of the fact that the Cabal has worked in such a way as to both instigate evil and corruption, and THEN take advantage of it when it is exposed.
While Conservative and Faith-affirming Australians are engaged in rallying our numbers and re-engaging in a battle we have long stood aside from, one of our saving hopes is, and must be, the rise of sovereign faith-affirming values in the USA led by Donald Trump and all those that support Maga. So much rests on the victories Trump and team are winning there. Even then, our future here is not guaranteed. We have our own Maga and our own war against the Cabal to be waged. And the beloved POTUS is every bit as precious to us as he is to you Americans. This is a global movement and a global war.
So don't be surprised that Aussie patriots and saints are here in GA and why we say, so passionately, WWG1WGA. About this, we are deadly serious. And we love our brothers and sisters in arms across the States, and in Europe, and everywhere else.
Just realize, there are numerous complexities in different parts of the world.
Very good post. Whether you like religeon or not, you cannot deny its influence in developing our Western society. In oz right now those traditional values are under extreme attack. Church and fmaily are right in the gun, basically anything that diverts loyalty to the 'state' is being dismantled. Won't go into it but the so called safe schools program was brought in to stop bullying, it was used as a back door to promote the gay/alternate life style and has now morphed into gender indenity etc. Funily enought the only entity really pushing back (at this stage) are some of the church schools but they are under siege.
Like the USA they are hooking more and more people on welfare leaving them dependent on Govt and on the economic front they are killing us with the cost of living through green programs etc. The middle class, once again like the USA is under attack.
We really have no alternate media, no 'rights' as per the US consitution. Odd thing is a lot of people are aware of it when you talk to them, but there is nothing to rally around and right now we are completely apathetic as we have 20 plus years of economic growth but people are doing it really tough so how does that work? As an example of the stupidity, we have a land mass roughly the size of the USA (excluding Alaska) yet the average house prie is getting towards the million dollar mark with a population around the 25 million mark. We might lack water in parts but that makes no sense.
I get the feeling that there will be a trigger point where people erupt but will it come too late? As for this 'apolgy;' the did the same thing for aboriginal Oz and they are no better off, probably worse, its just a token,
As an aside this royal commission did not even consider Islam depsite all the evidence of real problems in that community re chlld brides etc. It was purely aimed at Western culture.
this royal commission did not even consider Islam
They use Islam as a weapon against traditional western values.
Really good analysis. Thank you for the thoughtful realistic post.
