Australia needs a revolution! Australia needs a revolution now! Before we become so desensitised to wrongdoing and evil that we accept the worst of human nature as normal!
Like all successful revolutions it must come from the people. You and I. Everyday Australians.
People who find it abhorrent that an ex-member of Parliament could be charged and convicted of sex crimes against innocent children, with apparently more charges to come, and that his colleagues covered up for him. Did nothing about it until he safely retired as a government member, all for political expediency.
People who find it unacceptable that political parties and their members deliberately commit fraud on the electoral system to gain or hold onto power and treat the Australian public with contempt with their greedy feeding at the public trough.
People who are willing to say this is wrong, or this is right. People who will put principles first and actually stand for something and not be afraid to stand up against the waves of political correctness or pragmatism that changes tune according the way the wind appears to be blowing..
People who will stand firm for those principles of freedom and ethics that made our country a great place to live in, and in many cases, to die for. Principles based on the concept that there really are absolutes of right and wrong and that truth is not some mutable thing that changes according to circumstances
People who do not need official guidelines to tell them if something is wrong or questionable because their in-built sense of morals and ethics make it plain. People who are prepared to take responsibility for their actions and be accountable to a higher source for those actions. People who are not afraid to say there is a God who will ultimately hold all of us accountable for what we have done with our lives and to others.
People who will speak out against the hypocrisy of those who willingly condone the murder of thousands upon thousands of the most helpless of all, the unborn, through the evil of abortion, and call it pro-choice, or a woman’s right to choose. And at the same time refuse to allow ordinary Australians’ to own firearms or other defensive tools to protect themselves and their families from the wolves of society because ‘life is sacred’.
People who will speak out against the evils of pornography in all it’s insidious forms, from magazines, books and video’s and advertisements. People who will say that this evil only degrades that most precious of things, the family and the true God given relationship between men and women.
People who will speak out against the use of our schools to promote homosexuality and other deviant and life threatening lifestyles to our impressionable children under the guise of tolerance.
People who will say to our politicians - You only serve with the consent of the governed, and I will withdraw that consent by any means necessary unless you stop the lying, cheating and covering up for your colleague’s wrong doing and show by your actions that you are willing to listen to us and represent us to the parliament not represent your party to us.
If you are one of these people - I invite you to join with me in a revolution of personal ethics and morals. A revolution of mind where we determine to be responsible for fighting the tide of evil that threatens to overwhelm our country.
A revolution where we hold our citizenship dearly by becoming involved and taking action to remedy the problems of our society. Where we take the responsibility of strengthening the very heart of society, the family, by being active fathers and mothers and not abrogating that wonderful role to educators, the government or others.
And lastly, a revolution where we take an active interest in the political process by becoming involved with our local members of parliament and what they are doing, so that our wishes as citizens are followed and that we hold them accountable.
If we do not do this, then we will see the time come that revolution comes to Australia. The type of revolution seen on other countries where frustration’s at the lack of voice and participation, and the inequalities between the governed and the government, spill into the streets with violence and the breakdown of our civil structure.
Don’t risk this happening become a revolutionary today.
