G'day there fellow Aussie Skeptics, it seems that I've been conscripted ( LOL) as Host of this fine group since our last Host has sadly departed the scene.
I'm pretty open-minded, enjoy a bloody good joke, ribald. risque or otherwise, am 100% Atheist to the core, wouldn't trust a Politician to be telling the truth if he/she was laying by the road-side dying of thirst on a 45+ degree day in a heatwave.
So let's start with something juicy, the present Government under our Happy Clappy, Jesus Chappy, Hilsong Church attending Prime Minister reckons that the Newstart Alllowance is more than plenty in its sadly stagnated, almost FOSSILISED state and those receiving it do NOT deserve a decent rise in payment so as they can ACTUALLY AFFORD to pay transport costs, etc, etc, to go out and get jobs that are almost as available as hens teeth.
So,let's hear you thoughts on this subject or anything else that's on your minds.

Morrison' rhetoric betrays someone with a cruel ideological bent. His prosperity gospel so called causes him to see welfare recipients, those who need help, as 'leaners', and undeserving. They're not 'having a go' and so he won't 'give them a go.'
The Newstart allowance doesn't provide enough money for anyone to buy clothes to go to a job interview and doesn't allow a person to live with some kind of dignity. It reflects very badly on all of us that those in need are treated so badly.

I agree 100% and it says a great deal about his ' Xstian Charity' Ideology, something which we all hear, quite monotonously, them preaching about, doesn't it.

This says it all!

Yep, I agree with 90% of that BUT there are still some great things and people left out here in the far reaches of the Aussie Bush even though we are always dodging the political horse-shit that "dropeth like rain from the skies" and scraping off of the soles of our shoes, TRYING devise methods of distilling drinking water from either camel piss or rocking horse piss because the governments have let the Cotton and Rice Growers suck the Darling River drier than a Mormon Wedding and allowed Mining Companies to become Feudal Lords and force workers to work 12 hour shifts BUT hey, we still welcome visitors with open arms, we are still friendly people because ScumMO, the P.M. hasn't yet worked out how tax that as well.

G'day. The rumours of my banning by a cabal of misandrists is true. I believe that having accomplished their distraction and destruction at least one has left the site. You can read a little about it in chronological order at "This announcement may bring delight or dismay.",

"@

" and

now just posted as a result of what has occurred "I would like to suggest that, in the future,
whenever any member is about to be banned from the ...
".

I am still waiting for appropriate response from @Admin to the questions that I have asked.

Your appointment is the only one that I have not objected to as I also inherited this group when @walklightly went walkabout after having her foot operated on.

Good luck.

If you or any Aussies want copies of the now removed posts that resulted in my removal I will forward copies of the thread if you send me email address.

I'm sorry I was conscripted into replacing you Mate, I'll most probably cop the same 'snowflake attack' somewhere along the line as you did simply because, like yourself, I to am, and always will be, a bloody, proud, outspoken, " Cop this young Harry," type of Aussie who, IN MY OPINION here, manages to tread on the sensitive toes of those who sees us Aussies as little more than " Rustic, Red-Necked Colonials from Downunder," something, btw, which we are most definitely NOT.
I've dealt with the Hierarchy of Jingoism in the Facebook driven tiny, insular Universe before and beaten them so BEWARE Community Senate, there IS a NEW Tiger on the block and his teeth are sharp and he DOES bite back.
Also, please send the those copies to me, my e-nail is Antitheistocrates@otlook.com I love to go through them especially to see IF and where the Senate has breached your Right to Free Speech as per the International Bill of Human Rights to which both Australia and the U.S. ARE signatory nations.

@Triphid I knew the group would be in good hands Tony. Unfortunately I can tell you from harsh experience in a Federal Appeal Court - three judges on the bench back in about 1993 "I'm sorry Mr Bear, the government has not written and signed these International Treaties into Federal Law so we cannot take them into consideration" . I was unrepresented because the Labour Party stole all of the funding for lawyers to pay for their Party Chair person Dr Carmen Lawrence's $millions fees so she could fight her murder charge in WA. I had asked the appeal bench to recognise the international treaty that it had signed in 1992. The court had not heard of it. I did not take it to the High Court because not only was I not represented but did not see advantage to myself - quite the contrary. I still have the option of Geneva if I am ever well enough.
I will forward the information that you request.

@FrayedBear They led you well and truly up the garden path there my friend.
I have, somewhere amongst ALL my collections a copy of the U.N. International Bill of Human Rights where it STATES clearly that the Nation of Australia IS a co-signatory therefore IT MUST abide by them.

@Triphid That is Australian Federal Law for you. My experience of Victorian law is no better. I've had d ombudsmen tell me that a council did no wrong. Whrn I quoted the councils bye law to the contrary the cunt told "well if you don't like my decision complain to me again". An acquaintance ckmplained of a neighbour producing tear gas from a by product of making bio diesel. She was classex as a queralent and her file marked "do not bother to action her letters". The CEO who wrote that was then promoted to CEO of a large Victorian city. I had 3 local magistrates refuse to look at evidence of police perjury but they still refused to accept that their judgement of a restraining order was made on the basis of perjured police evidence which I had court and photograpic evidence of.

@Triphid In 1996 I appeared before a Senate hearing into the "Administrative Decisions (Effect of International Instruments) Bill 1995 brought on by Evans and Downer to have it codified that if Australia did not incorporate such Instruments into Australian law then they did not apply in Australia.
As far as I'm aware that is still the reality but not the ignored written intent of the law. All smoke and mirrors. Look at the disgraceful offshore concentration camps for refugees, Adani, Great Barrier Reef, Australian First Peoples, Pensioners, Unemployed. . . If you are not a gay, lesbian, politician, or white whale - forget it.

The following I produced in 1995. The erection of Howard and his government resulted in the above not being enacted into law. They just chomped on it in individual cases advantageous to international corporations and the usual Australian suspects in mining, media and gambling and probably ignored everything else.
