Union Leaders Warn Against Faith-Based Hiring for Religious Schools
Union leaders have warned the government that a religious discrimination bill must not allow faith-based schools to hire staff based on their faith.
And it makes sense, right?
I mean, if faith-based schools are permitted to go around hiring people on the basis of faith, they’ll be faith-based. And that’s a problem because… um …
Hang on. Isn’t the point of a faith-based school, that the staff all share the same faith?

We must redouble our commitment to the family – especially fathers – as a lynchpin of Christian training. Children who lack a stable sense that theirs is a Christian household are most vulnerable to drifting away from the Church.

James Macpherson has succinctly exposed the absolute hypocrisy of the Lobor Government; Labor would never think of inviting a Liberal into their ranks, it would be anathema to them, and yet Labor is seeking to force faith based schools to do what they would never ever do.
