Dear Brother Kevin, Consider the lilies of the field, they toil not, neither do the spin, but Solomon, in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. (Matthew, 6:28)
DH has had to speak to you about this before, when you endorsed Howard's tough Welfare to Workhouse rules for the disabled. Which you announced, incredibly, the day after the Christmas holiday, 27th Dec 2006!
Let DH remind you of Christ's words, and God knows, she's an atheist, so this should really not be necessary.
Do you think Jesus might have been saying something about respecting each human's true nature, and allowing creation to take care of itself, without necessary flogging each creature to death to increase their production of beauty?
And didn't God also admonish us to
Remember the Sabbath Day and keep it Holy
Don't work your Ministers too hard,
Lest they become taskmasters over us all
The idea, Brother Kevin, was to lead Australia out of bondage, and free us from Howard's cruel Welfare-to-Workhouse taskmasters, not to lead us into bondage.
The idea of a Labor party, was not to make workers labour more. It was to make their labours easier.
So take a moment to breathe deeply, and notice that progressives and humanists have won the election. There is no need to kowtow to the most punitive and retrograde elements of society!
Now please make sure our MP's and Ministers get adequate rest over Christmas, and set an example to all of us.
