The Islamophobia report is being sold as a roadmap to a more harmonious Australia when in reality, it seems like a Trojan horse: a vast catalogue of demands that, if accepted, would privilege one group’s sensitivities, weaken our defences against extremism, and embed grievance politics into the heart of government.

Freedom rarely disappears overnight. More often, it's chipped away – one "common-sense reform" at a time. That's exactly what we're seeing in Britain, where the Labour Government's latest push for digital identification has triggered a storm of public anger and accelerated its collapse in the polls.

738 days after the demonic October 7 terror attack, we now have some closure happening. With the remaining 20 living hostages released from the Hamas terrorists and the rest of the bodies of the dead hostages due to be released, it has been a remarkable 24 hours.

Egypt’s Islamic hate speech laws have claimed yet another victim. Christian author and apologist, Dr Augustine Samaan, was detained in early October. His only crime? Criticising Islam.

If Americans can ditch the Woke left and embrace liberty, merit, and common sense, then so too can the rest of the world, including Australia. The importance of Donald Trump’s inauguration as the 47th President of the United States is impossible to overstate.

How two millennia of exile taught the Jewish people to stand, and why Israel — shielded by memory and might — will not be bullied into silence. Jews do not seek permission to survive. We do not need lectures when our children’s lives are on the line.

Let's pray that a lasting peace breaks out in the Middle East, something not guaranteed despite the incredible diplomatic achievements of the past days. For Australia, let's pray and work for social cohesion, as most of us have had enough of this foreign conflict dominating our public discourse.

Julia Gillard's government removed the definitions of male and female in the Sex Discrimination Act in 2013, making way for gender identity to take precedence over reality in law. At that moment, women's sex-based rights were erased with the stroke of a pen.

Charlie Kirk’s insight into why men wear dark suits at their wedding was both provocative and profound, to say the least. Marriage is a process of death from which life usually springs in more ways than one. I often tell men it is a wonderful way to die.

The President of the United States is in the process of negotiating a historic ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. So why are pro-Palestinian protests still being planned? Now that there is a peace deal on the table, surely the goal of these rallies for Gaza has been achieved?

Yesterday proved there is no genocide in Gaza. There never was. All Hamas ever had to do in order to end the suffering of the Palestinian people was to release the hostages.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s announcement that his government was committed to cutting CO2 emissions by 62–70 per cent by 2035 has everything to do with political grandstanding, and nothing to do with saving the planet from the spectre of climate change.

Right-wing unbelief reminds me of Romans 2. Even though they aren’t Christians, they have enough light of truth to acknowledge God, have high regard for the Bible, have some respect for the rule of law, and want to uphold natural law and the civil order.

Charlie Kirk's bold voice, testimony to the Gospel, massive appeal, and effective platform are a rebuke to the credential class who would have advised him to tone it down so he could play the long game and have a nice career.

Seventeen years ago, Victoria became the first state in Australia to introduce legal abortion for any reason up until the time of birth. The 17th Annual March For the Babies in Melbourne will be held on Saturday, 11 October from 1:00 – 3:00 pm at Treasury Gardens.

Charlie Kirk was concerned with the world around him and sought to transform it for the glory of God and the good of the people. Love compelled him to proclaim the truth of the Gospel. Now, Charlie Kirk’s life has ended, but his work continues with us.
