Anyone keen on hate speech laws needs to spend a year in Pakistan, living under their Islamic blasphemy laws. Two Christian teens are set to be hanged over cartoons sent to their mobile phones by a Muslim, whom authorities let off.

We’ve all heard the rhetorical attacks on Western Civilisation — often centred on Christianity, capitalism, or colonialism, and often on all three. It’s worth examining the data to determine whether they deserve to be so despised.

Who does not suffer? And how do Christians accept and enter its deeper meaning and challenge with clarity, trust and hope, and not with passive, puzzled acceptance, denial, confusion, resentment – or even anger?

The Never Again is Now rally made me realise that this war is not a case of Jews versus Muslims, it’s not a case of Israelis versus Palestinians, it is not a case of East versus West — it is a case of Love versus Hate, Freedom versus Oppression, Life versus Death.

With Israel-Iran tensions rising, and the ever-growing threat of Hamas, the recent stabbing of Sydney Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel is beginning to highlight a very serious problem arising for Australians.

The controversy involving Facebook’s decision to deny access to thousands of sites in Australia calls for a review of the laws relating to traditional media and new online services.

There’s a global pandemic right now, but you won’t read about it in our media. It’s claiming thousands of lives, in a dozen countries. I’m talking about the Muslim persecution of Christians. If the situation is so bad, then why is it virtually unknown in the West?

Since the October 7 atrocity, there has been a string of anti-Jewish sermons delivered in Sydney mosques by Muslim preachers. These have attracted much critical attention in the Australian media.

Cumberland councillor Steve Christou has stood by his successful motion to remove children’s books depicting same-sex parenting from the council’s libraries despite a NSW Government threat to remove funding over the decision.

Now, the radically intolerant leaders of Azerbaijan are preparing to invade Armenia itself and finish the job begun in 1915 of purging all Christians from the first Christian nation on earth.

It is the conversion of Ayaan Hirsi Ali which I find to be the most intriguing. Her spiritual journey from Islam, to atheism to Christianity is extraordinary.

If anyone is really shocked about all this, they obviously know little about political Islam, about jihad, and about Islam’s longstanding hatred of Christians and Jews.

Rather than answer the question as to how Australia became a place in which a clergyman cannot stand at his pulpit without fearing for his life, our political masters, champions of diversity, have decided to simply shut down all conversation on social media.

The Australian Prime Minister is more upset about video footage of a Christian minister being stabbed than about the Christian minister being stabbed. And now NSW Islamic leaders are more upset about not being consulted over terror raids than about the fact teenage Muslims are allegedly planning attacks on the public.

That anti-Jewish and anti-Israel sentiment is now reaching fever pitch is clear. It is becoming less and less safe for Jews to live normal lives in many Western cities, and as usual, Israel is being demonised by our elites, much of the media, and the secular left.

A Christian priest was stabbed in the face by an Islamic jihadist last night, and the UK’s Telegraph went with this headline: “Stabbed bishop is a lockdown and Covid-19 vaccine sceptic.”

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has taken time out from undermining Israel to comment on last night’s terror attack in Western Sydney. The PM was asked what comfort he could give to Christians. His response was interesting...

Since October 7, there has been a deafening silence across much of Australia’s Muslim community. Only a few have condemned Hamas. In my view, this highlights the dangerous rise of political and radical Islam. These communities must have the courage to stand against hate.

Dawkins praises the Christian values that make his UK lifestyle the envy of much of the world. But rejecting Christian belief while holding onto its values is illogical, contradictory and has consequences – and he knows it.

Last week the Canberra Declaration held a special and significant time of repenting for antisemitism in the Church, led by guests Kelvin Crombie and Rev Robin Kinstead. This Friday night we will be praying for the Muslim world – please join us!
