Have sent an email to the lovely Fred Nile - Democratic Christian Party - who is pushing to stop Ethics class in secular schools. His complaint is that the ethics class is the same time as the religious class, and wants that stopped - the point of having ethics class, was the kids who didn't want to, for whatever reason, were sitting under a tree etc.

So I sent this:

Please, please, Fred Nile, let me teach The Bible, I will read them the bible, word for word - please please let me.

 

Genesis

If you make God angry enough, he will kill you and your family with his own sword. 22:24

 

But God wasn't satisfied with the slaughter of the 3000, so he killed some more people with a plague. 32:35

 

God decides to kill Moses because his son had not yet been circumcised. 4:24-26

 

For I will at this time send all my plagues upon thine heart, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people; that thou mayest know that there is none like me in all the earth." Who else but the biblical god could be so cruel? 9:14

 

If an ox gores someone due to the negligence of its owner, then "the ox shall be stoned, and his owner shall be put to death.". 21:29

 

Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live." Thousands of innocent women have suffered excruciating deaths because of this verse. And I shall tell the children, about the Spanish, the German Inquisitions, and the torture, in detail, what these women went through. 22:18

 

Deuteronomy

At God's instructions, the Israelites "utterly destroyed the men, women, and the little ones" leaving "none to remain." 2:33-36

 

Ah, yes, Fred Nile, I know my Bible, and will be very diligent in teaching the childen, as these are just a miniscule of evidence. I would be the perfect teacher - please, please let me teach The Bible.

 

Waiting in anticipation of your positive reply

Do you think I will get a positive reply????? Ha, Ha, Ha.

G'day fellow Australians. I live in downtown Sydney. Interesting times. The Carbon Tax has just been introduced, as yet to be passed. What are other Australians views on this.

Hmmm, there must be more of us rational thinkers out there. What about the expats?
