What is it with the girlfriends groups at the ABC that they have to go on and on about men.
The offended ones are not going to win any points because more and more thinking people can see past the patronising stereotype that even the PM puts on us '' we can do better ". The royal we is a careless pee.
If the women are going to take on the giant job of speaking for all women make sure you do speak for all women .
Like many men, women are using genetics to justify their sexism and they simply shouldn't. Its( whatever it is this week) no more in their DNA (XX or XY) even though Y deprived like to say so - so many use the damning determinism of their age to justify their griping ; such sadness and associated madness is predetermined.
Whatever the content, few men are listening because of all the grizzling and griping underneath . We men ( most of us) can see it; they are being sexist about the question of abuse, even if theXX's can't.
Its also another example of the overplaying of some noisy group that is oh so annoying at the ABC - we are switching off more and more
That said , women are abused more and more - but as their grandmothers might tell them - ask yourself what you did before you go hunting the devil. Whats really itching you ?
"a fair principle might be for all - if you don't want the badge, FIRST make sure you don't wear it . The conditions apply to philanderers of both sexes ".
And if not confession , then there maybe denial -----news commentary on ABC should be reasonable and the following is reasonable
"Even if no man ever spoke slut shaming - it would still be there unspoken . If a woman doesn't give up sleeping around , she wears the badge of slut in most men minds. There is only one thing she can do about that ( should she choose to do otherwise) and it isn't in the new and worthless cultural change dreambook., esp its chapters on how to change others ."
"a fair principle might be for all - if you don't want the badge, FIRST make sure you don't wear it . The conditions apply to philanderers of both sexes ".
My mother would be offended at Annabelles portrait of her hard doneby sex in "guess whose coming to dinner _ year by year .
As a very successful career woman she was happy to give up her stimulating career to become a full time mum . With her girlfriends, she enjoyed all sorts of creative and diverse manufacturing ( not the drudgery of most work places) She, like so many of her growing group of new best friends started and ran community groups and activities - not ONE mentioned in the decade of dinners program .
Thought more than once that the family on show were also eating or regurgitating words that weren't really their own. - reinforcing some fixed hard done by womans stereotype. wouldn't it be great to have met grandma !!!! I had visions of Margeret Mead being taken in by teenagers telling her what she wanted to hear . Innnocent - the children or the adults . Peterson on Cain and Abel?
So many liberated women of a n earlier age celebrated the choice to be household and group leaders and the release from drudgery that technology like clothes washers provided. The program is a bit of fun , but if the film producers at ABC were truly competitive and running in the dirt they wouldn't be wasting our money on soap cleaned up for PC - even Mystery Road and so many Y deprived lawyers and well dressed detectives don't cut deep enough for those of who live on the edge. Where in Mystery road is the edgy rejection of "poor me" driven problems ?????
My mother knew there was no relief for her poor husband whose drudgery was in not being paid to provide food for his country ( animals and fruit) I wish the ABC would realize it has a predjudiced view of history before our children do.
If the women are going to take on the giant job of speaking for all women, make sure you do speak for all women .
We can all complain - just stop and listen . Noone is listening.

The search for deeper things
While I liked Sarah Ferguson's closer engagement with people in the domestic violence series, I struggle with her questions. Dumb sub scientific "why" questions especially .We used to pay ABC to report - not run scientific investigations . Now they think they can solve problems or even understand them .Where's the respect at the ABC for those who do that properly in the truly complex matters of healthcare ?
Filling their programs with their favorite words ideas and questions is one thing, but not seeking much advice is the tragedy in most of this; the deeper things ( below)are not uncovered.
In a paradox of heavenly proportions they talk of " shining the light " on things . Too Christian to be believed from them . Maybe they are confused about what deception looks like ?
Nowhere does this strange habit of cynical journo asking dumb question become an obvious downer to us in the audience than when the person being asked the question has something to hide or is stuck in celebrating my ideas mode .
While the latter is increasingly common, it is not helped by self select but stacked panels on everything from QandA to TheDrum .
Dumb questions are OK but they should come from the audience - they don't. QandA 's staged question setup was never so obvious as when Malcolm Turnbull was on recently.
Anyone would think Malcolm was a christian ; deserving the tearing apart treatment you get in Emperor Jones Colosseum
Everyone has something to hide ; Our ignorance our prejudice . That's why the lack of real independent observers on ABC is so annoying ,. We all know the technique - have a least one lone outsider that fulfills our obligation even if it provides just a convenient beating up, moving on target should they get to speak for too long . The ABC has a really bad habit of wasting our time, They do it with titillating and splash statistics. Edgy but with no go boundaries.No dumb questions from the audience makes the above programs amongst the most pretentious on TV.
Everyone should be learning while at the ABC, but many are not .
What really annoys me is that behind and under the shallow response to domestic violence epidemic we get refusal to talk and face the underlying issues of " not feeling good about yourself " and anger ( not being understood )
Where does all the hate come from ? Clearly many in church don't know . Many ignoring its causes under the surface
While noone at the ABC dares to mention the hell created by a generation who encourage self focus
ABC church will do no good .
Like the more sustainable meeting houses, maybe the new church needs soem sort of confession to start off so they can really move on.( as they say)
The projection onto others ( hate ) is going to grow while ABC doesn't know it, confess it ,and talk to it .

Moving on or just going around in circles
.
ABCTV, in particular has a problem - its cultivated a culture that is quite inadequate to deal with the age of science - the media have very few practicing scientists and worse- they don't expose the people to them enough. QandA classically is stacked with polys and wannabes .An inexperienced isolated arts graduate culture dominating intellectual and political life in Australia ?
A leading Scientists spelt out the risk of our current disease nearly 100 years ago
What I hope maybe helpful now is to expand on the way the above named disease has been cultivated in places like the ABC and other lefty homes for safe injection . Tragic misplaced cynicism poured over our once clever, more competent and confident countries young people.

Like many who fail to practice either sound science or philosophy ( ever learning but never
coming to a gnosis of the truth) they hope a generalization or correlation will carry the audience forward ( Tony Jones
eternal myth of a heaven by "moving on" )You ask the question "why"
or "why not" without a clue that if you don't wait or listen long
enough you will never know .
What do you learn on the ABC?
What do you learn on the ABC?
What help is all their attention to truth by majority- demolition of ideas by class history ? Class warfare? They use words "pattern "and
"puppet","dinosaur" and "cockroach "for condemn all those in a class who hide behind old things
Generalizations are fine in their place ; they are useful generalization words about human behavior and us sheep .
But we know if we want to keep the door open ( true democracy and freedom of speech) we try to bring others around to confront a person to their particular face /issue . Cultural crap is such an unholy mess that only the gods could sort it out IMO .we do it to each other at our own peril .

To accuse an Image deo of tribal sin is and always risks your offending against the 8th commandment , We hope for
better in each other and our increasingly out of control media .
It seems to me that , like them , many at the ABC are going
around in circles and just don't see it

The sacking of Red Symonds
In a paradox of profound proportions the high priests of ABC have sacked the only person who is really funny in there .
Being the pathetic religious pedants that they are, they think an injection of " comedy ' will give the ABC what it lacks . Drug induced highs is what they are hooked on -- They are nor honest and open enough to realize we can't join them because the government don't pay us to be cynical unprofessional speculators - and they dare to talk of Red " not doing his research"
We haven't learnt anything from the decades of Jon Feine and all his research and he appears to have not learnt anything either. Feines' the one they should sack .
No injection will prevent our rejection of their being far too serious about their own religion ; the white cloak over the cynicism ; the inbuilt anti- authoritarianism ; the dumb baseless determinism as their hope for the future; their misplaced idea of how science works and mots of all their failure to acknowledge its limitations .

Heard them laughing in the corridor .
About others who constantly talk" Values"
after all at ABC there is no need for values because we are all good ( don't need to have this discussion ) , and
All your values are as good as my values , Anyone who talks too much about their values is intolerant That's that other group over there an boy are they bad .
Nervous laughter , Hypocritical laughter or just noise to cover a blank space .

True independent journalism - or a bunch of predictable religious reactionaries
If there was one chorus the ABC hum it would be the above one TIJ. They have convinced themselves that they are fair and open . Yet the evidence from the many who switch them off regularly is that their same old same old is the result of religion in denial -- failure to recognise that they bring their own bias to reporting and who to report .
Only if reporters did little but put a microphone in random faces we would get more independent journalism .
We also don't get independent reporting when the news feed is fulla commentary, speculation ,same old commentators and self appointed adjudicators like Tony Jones who are controlling discussions by always moving them on.
So what would be fair characterization of OUR ABC?
Who do you think wrote this and when?
Let me just tell you it was one of the finest and most respected public broadcast/writers of our time

criticised how the opinions of ..... staff "were at odds with the majority

War with straws
Nothing shows the nakedness of many of the reactionaries at abcchurch than the weak targets of its troops. The reactionary young men who started Rage, Wars on everything, are still obedient to their job descriptions --but their programs say nothing ,They use a lot of explosives and its colorful but its really just .......mad as hell. Even just overconfidence in identifying the enemy will kill troops when the warfare is gorilla warfare
Oh yes they fill our screens with images of things to fight against, but really most of abc audience don't need the suck eggs of Checkout and Wars on waste . we don't need more navel gazing drivel in courts to remind us that the rationalists are limited to law in their ineffective tyrannical war to change the world. Productivity is important - it breeds optimism , touting at windmills breeds cynicism.
The schoolmasters at ABC should retire before they spend more of our money on making the gloves under the club look good . Besides some of us go, but we don't believe . Besides, as is said below , children aren't following ABC schoolmasters either- and when they do the evidence, for you dumb reactionary fact checkers , is that it just breeds cynicism.My facts VS your facts How very childish and dull esp -------when ABC has the last word . .
One of the biggest problem with ABCchurch is that when it gets too heavenly minded, its of little earthly use.Good on them for trying but good intention is never enough when it comes to evil .
ABCchurch cultivates a hiding place for cynics who don't have to grow up and be real .Who instead of reporting people from the real world , increasingly do the commentating (eg The Drum, Feine Qand A, Sure the desire for truth can be there , but I am saying the commitment is often not . Takes 30 years to train a good scientist .Yet chairpersons ask " Who ask how and why" questions without any hope of digging any deeper than the playground or colosseum or some other PC safe haven in which they operate. Sound science takes time to work through so just making it sexy is not enough .
The ongoing fiasco of Todd Sampson trying to make science sexy showsr incompetence in the subject matter
Time the ABC had a science directorate outside it , or at least just a few practical scientists within its ranks Go on tell me who they are . The disease of non scientists in the ABC telling us scientists what we think has reached epidemic proportions in ABCTV at least.
The classic neglect of Children and young people at the ABC
Our children are not as placid or stupid enough as to think OUR version of rage is reactionary enough , The church crowd wouldn't know what young people are thinking , They are so bust talking ( cause they are loosing the battle) to their own old crowd on things like Book club they wouldn't notice their own PC.The degree to which reactionary empitiess just breeds woosiness, niceness and cynicism. The immature adults in the congregation seem to show a blind eye to their children who have learnt to hate them because they woosed out in modern reactionary selfie pulldowns ( everyone is wrong except me ) like " please like me" .
Where in the world are the reports form Children on the ABC . so non pC Something that really says what a sin is . That challenges them ---not panders to them . See how they struggle not to laugh when " values ' are mentioned . Its our job to make everyone laugh at ideas of " whats valuable" . Without a vision of sin, its always other bloke who has the problem . Maybe there is no sunday school at church because the kids have seen through their parents ? If its not that it would be impossible not to get the message- pure cynicism is the go .
If only a little of the ABC budget was given to to people on "you can't say that "or community TV to produce something DIFFERENT from the boringly predictable cynical preoccupations of ABC1

A coupe for common sense
Nothing could have prepared Tony Jones and his tight team of religious pedants from the shock of an unexpected few words from the royal family of Hamlet territory. What do you do when someone says something heretical in church .The court as usual out of touch with the leadership.
Helle Thorning Schmidt believed in CC, so "she must be alright" to provide the perfect balance they seek on Q and A---they thought.
Helle was apparently perfect for that perfect balance that they strive for at this worship service on Mondays --or so they thought . Pity about the child who is unaware of the parade -the emperor wearing no clothes .
Nothing could have prepared the control group from her stepping into the crowd and being called called foul over her short statements about the very nature of Democracy ( as she herself rightly put it !!!) .
"Of course you can insult someone ", she said to the amazement of the PC crowd .The church was rocking with unspoken calls of "heresy" .Court in session.
She must have wondered what has happened to this wonderful place of free spirits, where they now sit on people who express them .
For a stunned moment, the penguin in charge found it difficult to move on .His" moving on" move normally quite effective in keeping his program and sermon series on track .
God bless them; They took a risk last night in having Pail Kelly and Josh, but little did they think that this honest visitor from outside would do what visitors do - tell the truth ,
They will have to make sure next time the balance is right - The team do know that they can't have more than one scientist or expert on the panel;( doctrines must be clearly put) to have more than one expert islike weighting the game in a gambling fashion -- does anyone remember how the QandA panel treated Professor Bob Carter?
Clearly the team didn't see that the other panel guests would be so wishy washy over the deep and powerful issue of words and didn't see like those guests how the tyrannical try to rule with them --it simply didn't occur to them .This is a comfortable place to sit late at night after all .
Helle was not briefed to NOT play the political game of the moment; pretend we believe that Section 18 is OK because it was the rights ( or is it liberal lefts ) decision to try an reform it . The reactionaries will pathetically and predictably say that the word insult and offend MUST stay.
Helle said the blasphemous words " its OK to insult " . Any reasonable thinking person would recognize that the evil is often in the ear of the beholder -but not the PC brigade in the pews
The pew sitters are happy to see someone crucified in court because the assertive rich one ( or anyone ) has the right to take someone to court for what they see as a crime.Crimes of ommission and good intention come to mind .
Pity they haven't read Romans 11 :8 for a while, where the author points out just a few problems with what we see and what we don't see and why .Why we have trial by jury and why we are NOT in the West clones of his old crowd --the pharisees.
Seeing a comment as insulting doesn't make it so, but the ABC and the Senate would make it so . Innocent people will NOW continue to go to court , even in houses, schools cafes and in the street because the Hollow men in the Senate like Hinch just want to go home : when a clear winning argument is not obvious; when its all too hard and you can't please the people on your side-- or anyone in particular
Never was the left in such a bind, on the right, than when they can only advocate doing nothing .
Never are the reactionaries ( well dome Malcolm Turnbull for easing them out of the cracks ) so evidently in a state of traumatic inertia and self imposed paralysis than when they realize they have nowhere to go (react to )but to go back and vote with the common sense of reform .
What a bunch of clowns .
The perfect balance doctrine at the ABC -
(In superficial terms of course
The high priests strive to get it right "You got to fact check these things they say " - fact being a very good cover for lack of Quality and a pedant preoccupation with quantity - Hegel and history would be aghast at the teams simple doctrines. THE ABC team are so short of real scientists they miss Hegels Whiteheads and Russell's point about the nature of scientific verification and how to get things CLEAR .

Culturing Obnoxiuos Women
Leading women of Australia don't quite see their own ridiculous stance on the effect of rebellion and self centredness on our communities and theirs in particular :You may feel like being like the childish adults on Absolutely Fabulous, but you are wrong to not resist it; deeply and effectively.
It took Lumley and Saunders ( Lateline tonight) to remind the reactionary women's club at the ABC that nothing good can come from enjoying their indulgence and their well hidden love of acting like children and scratching, cursing and self centered cruelty that is so often there somewhere. .
Don't think many of the worshipers would realize that, to think like that was to pull yourself and your family down
.The ABC boys are allowed to do snide and innuendo with their tired old formula of wars on everything . Are the women allowed to do same ? Maybe they don't care if they end up like the boys- underneath ?
Why do we have to put up with the same same old tearing cynicism and innuendo,yes we are switching you all off because you are off ! Leading cynical sectors of ABC are running on plain hypocrisy and empty reactionary rebellion to any structure ---apart from their own. .How many grownups are there in there?
Joanna was at pains to point out that the "poor us sexism" that women on Emily's list play up to , is driving their own and their daughters into a go nowhere unreality. There is nothing there!
My bet is that noone in the pews is teaching their girls self control . One can only wonder, not how absolute fabulous are their homes , but how empty, vacuous and unhappy .Cruelty isn't part of the show ,only because the AF daughter has more sense than to follow her mothers lead . Are all the sycophants to AF as wise as the actors ?
Our daughters are being radicalized by their own mothers. Takes more than an Imam to generate a revolution . All it takes is failure - the empty nice denial of real evil by the reactionary modern secular age .

Judging faith on its ground effectiveness
Could be funny if it wasn't so ridiculous . The merchants of change in theory want us suddenly to believe they are interested in the sustainable. Jennifer Byrne on the book club talking on books that changed the world .
The only way a progressive can do this in the West with the bible and its grand literary and legal history standing in the decades of centuries is to claim , as they did on Book Club that pre biblical history had the idea before any Hebrew or Christian . More than a hint of denial there and only a catchphrase or token word like "the Iliad " to back it up ,
So, quite predictably we have the sycophants on her program dribbling out the doctrine using the Iliad aas the key - Just what we learnt from history is of course not an issue for a Jew or a Christian , We learn nothing from history , We are far more realistic and less prone to disappointment . Clearly as other members show the only alternative story of significance has to be a dystopian vision ( hunger games a) . The convenient dystopic vision at ABC of environment as disaster area is now a littel dated. ABC priests may believe dystopia talk can work cause their paid , whether it does or not , but young people will not -- Thank God
ABC breeds dystopian depression by preaching no other gospel
Faith in evolution ( so much part of this setup and stitch up program )doesn't work and its insertion into what is supposed to be a program about outsiders ideas becomes, as in any church a sermon on why the chosen authors agree with us .
So the biggest problem for this new faith in automatic progress and if you like " improving on Christianity crap " is that we need post christian ( more modern) authors to demonstrate this effect .
The constant faddishness in modern literature dissolves any credibility Jennifer Byrne tries to give to her assertion on THE BOOK CLUB . She is not helped by her guest who talks about The Hunger Games , All the presenters on the program don't realise that by asserting a progression, they should have on the ABC given the two millenniums of christina thinking far more independent and focused ( cf general) oxygen than they have for decades ,Enthusiasm for change characterises their attitude and the reason why the glass is for them ---still half empty ( and obnoxious to young people) .
We have told our young people that its a dog eat dog world - now they believe it and any reading of The hunger games that makes it nice is pure fiction - like their ambition to improve on a workable theory of human nature that the bible has taught consistently for centuries .
there are of course modern books that have changed the world but the reality is most people in modern times have never listened to build .
"The origin of the species" is valuable because it established the fact about natural selections role in adaption. It was one o those realities that deeply challenged not so much the authority of the Bible but the long held interpretation of it , You need something deeper than one chapter and its interpretation to ignore the Genesis story. The bigger question is do we still accept original sin as the framework for understanding the human condition - a best approximation ; or do we have another? .
Maybe Jennifer Byrne will have some one on next week to show us how she at least has moved on her understanding . Scott Peck Rollo May , Ronald Conway If she is right about natural progress there MUST be somebody whose ideas TRUMP those of a thousand years or so
Whatever happens Jennifer Byrne will have to be careful because the bible is clearly progress according to her theory - maybe she can identify how specifically we have moved on from it? - errors paradigms
Somehow I don't think she has thought it through .
As Herbert Spencer might admit if he were alive today " I invented evolution as the answer to everything" .but I know even Darwin, who work is tight on this would never let anyone let the idealism get out of hand --- Evolution and adaption happens , its not a universal principle of control in nature. Unless of course , you are stuck with your DNA as the final word in your lif.

ABC 's moral dilemmas too small and predictable
One of the clear consequences of ABC cloistering its worship around clever government is that the government is not so clever . You have to worship something and the object of their worship is thick.
The ultimate consequence of their decades long faith that government (and its ally -public opinion care) is that the volunteers and onlookers may stop caring as well . We pay them to care so let them get on with it - these institutions simply do not care very well without constant reform from the ground up . These institutes in cares name will dissolve out the care if they are run purely on material grounds. s .
Give us a break from G Doogue and Tony Jones whose predictable structure and patronising ignorance limits the discussion possible.
They have had their chance to lead - give someone else a go!!!!!!!
The only moral decision Doogue thinks is out there is 'assylum '. What about the rebellion of young people and the attractiveness of islam in the moral vacuousness they have created over the last 20 years ?

Fanatical and about to fall
Mark Scott's legacy may well be to see the ABC's reserve of credibility seriously eroded when its failure to fact check all the half truths it has portrayed as proofs of sea level rise over a decade finally addressed by scientists .(eg Kurabati )
The ABC does a really poor job of representing science in spite of its high advocacy. The reasons are documented elsewhere and by science prophets from the past. It would be amazing if the ABC reverse themselves out of the cul de sac by themselves , but as our forebears taught us - better to confess than go on in denial .
Like the attempt to shore up the shoreline on rising sea levels , the tide will turn and they will have, for the sake of history , to be identified as playing a role for a whole decade in muddying the waters .
If they can't get these political and scientifically sensitive matters right what other things should we trust them about ?
Its especially dangerous for our public broadcaster because the game of giving each side a fair go is often met ( in a statistical sense ) but not when the controversy runs deeper and the conservation needs to be deeper ( qualitative and speculative ) The idea of proving things work should not be left up to the media and political class. ABC needs to employ and publish work from practicing professional scientists.
. The ABC have yet to realise that it would be innovative and productive to link to sites which at least put another point of view . All Talk back hosts religiously guard their sense of control by not allowing sensible callers to converse with each other - which would mean the conversation would really move on . ABC are no better than commercials at the moment in not doing this . I no longer listen partly because of this monotony and predictableness. So much for festivals of dangerous ideas ,

Old reactionary noise never dies unless it has a permanent drip feed from the public purse
Emperor Julian would be pleased with our Philip Adams (He is able to sell the old as new again ) but we have little reason to be .He's stale old bread. Instead of using his considerable wit and wisdom to promote his favorite worship chorus of progress and evolution, he takes us back ten years to Hitchens talking about Thomas Payne - what a pain it was, same old same old , ABC repeats rather than ABC up to date
As a practical scientist I cringe when he defers to what I know , Tis something he only thinks he knows - he simply doesn't know and its shows in the way he calls us gods of reason .( He also as a worshiper doesn't ask questions like a good scientist would , Why ? Presumably he can't cope with my rationality and his pathetic and pedantic game of lumbering logomachy .... at the edges of reason)
" Can you think of someone modern who still promotes Payne 's version of freedom "Silence was the stunned reply .So much for progress and all from our gurus
There is no-one who dares to run the simple freedom and equity arguments beyond there allotted time ( very short) . Nature not only abhors a vacuum, its diversity refuses to be drafted into the equity only important mode of these modern but short lived pedants ( as Payne , Rouseauu etc etc were all like Shaw heretics and paying the price for same - irrelevance and ineffective )
I'm all for less government but the hypocrisy of the fabian left is they only have governement. Without a reformation people's bad side requires a "government good "assumption , The fabians should disband or at least stay out of the government pushers brigade as they are irrational about its dangerous infallibility - and esp once they are on committee.
The more substantial boundary rider was Orwell who realized that freedom and prosperity, pushed in the name of equality, was birdbath deep . The trouble is, as our century proves oh so well with all its tyrants running the argument , is that the simple can do a huge amount of damage before the fire runs out; Before the substantial ( and science) rules over the simple
Can this man who doggedly limits his reason to what he himself can see, survive the onslaught of the future -- - a reaction to the prison the determinants have created , A more "romantic period "if you must ?
The recurring and countercultural idea that there is more to knowing that knowing will ever know is coming . His version of science is "its the answer to everything" and yet Payne like Chambers should have scientists adoring him for his prophetic brilliance if it were true .
Young people rebel from being put in his cage. His and the ABC war on everything may have some adherents because its natural for young people to be that way , Whats not natural is to not recognise when you grow up; whats good in the past and reinforce it for our kids sake . Resilience builds on a foundation, not complete freedom.
Will be interesting to see who has the courage to review S Neimen republished "Evil in Modern thought " . I only hope whoever does, will challenge another simple mistake not even accepted by psychiatrists - That religion can be poison tis true , but its not possible to be human without having one, Whatever the result of her confrontation we know denial about wh knows will continue .
I hope someone has the courage to let her witness to us with her own well thought through words .
At least stop the latest denial by the determinists " You don't need religion "
" Religion and political activism begin where reason is missing "

Moral judgements make the ABC a laughing stock
Symbolized by the cynical change of Compass to The Moral Compass, ABCTV has finally come full circle and "accepted "( still some denialists in there?) that every institution and presenter "who goes along to church "has a faith . More importantly. ABC admitted that unlike the bad ( good ??who knows these days ) old days when they promoted "morality is bunk" ( eg faith that "science will tell you how to live not some old framework from past )
They see Progress , in the WGP religion as adaption - looks more like a revamped view from their christian heritage .A rear end collision or revolution?
After all Feine ( Tuesday)and Uhlmann ( saying how Greens will live forever and all things good about how they " do things" are full of their very OWN adjectives of moral judgments--" good"+ bad " Not acceptable for public paid reporters ,( Feine even said someone must be a "liar" if they didn't agree with him( listen to the transcripts Tuesday 5th May 2015) .
Beware
A pure belief in progress without believing in a light and a direction, can clearly mean you quickly go around in circles and are seen to be doing so (Our evidence based approach)- we are your honest friends here . Watch your ABC if you can bear it , I'd rather watch fish in a bigger pond
The hero of Fabianism knew this better than most of those who feign him . He played with the idea of change but only because he had in his piggy bank the moral framework of a " good girl " and a good moral teacher, ( I have the divine spark within me) So why was the idea of Pygmalion so engaging but the product of all that excitement about the new age , change and equality so unproductive ( shaw's support for the revolution ) His mother and he appear in the play but like most Westerners he ignored the safe framework from which creative tensions arose . The recognition of that fact led his friend Gilbert to lower his status to that of a mere plagiarizer and heretic . Shaw for all his wisdom led people astray in the same way as many of his less reactionary and unthinking comrades did . Do you want to remembered for the same - half stating the case or worse ridiculing your parents most insistent words ?
Be sure you know what mix of tried and tested you apply to your own life before you do what secularism not tries to do to us - squeeze us into its own very tight mould .and denial of its ineffectiveness in motivating.
ABC innovative or predictable ? Open or closed ? Superficial or substantive ?
Jon Feine who clearly has spent far too long cocooned in the ABC, has his ultimate faith in Innovation . "If you are doing what you were doing ten years ago" , it seems to him , you R a dinosaur . He didn't need to tell us yesterdaywhat his church affiliation is - we have known for years; we at least ave been listening (The church of the wonderful God of Progress WGP )
Yes Iview makes sense and is a sound innovation . .Feine being the monocultural believer he is , cannot see sideways . Jon hasn't weighed up the big picture in his own program where he still controls the discussion ( see notes on774 blog about this years ago)
ABC's stale old list ( just a few egs)
- Lack of innovation in youth programs like no community TV ,
-the dumb and dangerous "do what you like "( WGP) sunday school" of Rage .Ultimately "kids will learn" (WGP doctrine), who cares if such innovation breaks up families?
-SOSO formula for promoting science haven't changed - only got more flashy ( Quantum , Science show, docos on Sunday night )
-- One might rationally assume there important for church teaching doctrine - that's why they don't change ??
What too many ABC pewpreachers lack, as advocates of the truth, is the understanding that our religious views can cloud our objectivity - all us . Feine like Tony Jones regularly interrupts and controls the discussions on their programs ( if need to justify this watc them try to discuss 10 totally diiferent distraction items in one hour ---prejudice delivered predictably .
Tony Jones runs the only party in town where the conversation amongst the biggest celebrities in town is controlled by him .And noone complains about his Fuhrer like behaviur esp managemnet who fund him to be so
Jones tries to make it fun but really its his gig and he doesn't really laugh. Last nights charity gala event said to support the poor in disaster areas looked more like a specific good image gig for Peter Singer whose very own charity and political causes were given all the bright lights.,,,,,,, and we left unfed .

The Gospel according to progressives ; Saved by Change Alone
Is that "whats new is better" and whats old at best is immaterial . The leading progressives are largely determinists in sheep's clothing . They offer the future - a convenient, unprovable and in practice vain hope ( if you look at what they have achieved in last 30 years )
The power of the word "new" explains why adherents fall over themselves to bring us " new ' research .For most of us who have witnessed this mistaken focus - the destruction of the old schools that created scientists in Australia this sill shallow talk is neither interesting or new . Just religious rubbish worship . you can wait as long as you like for innovation but if you kill the real breeding ground ( eg by trying to pick winners ) - your hope for megastars will be in vain.

It happened in the last 24 hrs in reports around the Climate council and their concerns about the Coast . If the ABC employed a few more scientists they would NOT make fools of themselves by reporting such rubbish .Their level of credibility among st people who know, wouldn't be so low.
In a week when Utopia has been provided the best reality therapy ever , some dumb woman appears on 774 saying "We need a new Integrated planning authority" ( you mean like they have in Utopia) --- to deal with what ? Purely religiuos people are a giveaway --- they can't see the reasons their first love has warts on it .

The issue : Rising sea levels . And she was serious
You see , even if the sea level is rising , you don't turn on the first fix button that comes into your panic stricken head .An old button but a highly polished button :
You see , even if the sea level is rising , you don't turn on the first fix button that comes into your panic stricken head .An old button but a highly polished button :
But then you must realize why the common sense filter is not operating . ABCchurch is in full swing the spokesman is only doing what decades of ignorant advisers have been doing ; saying that " Sure -government is always the solution " ;
Its Gospel in the church of Saved by Change Alone receiving the highest honor yet again from the ageing and ineffective fanatical Fabians still on the drip feed in Labor and media. "Government is always the solution- it has been the one and only Savior for all of them who can't fund their passions elsewhere"
Lateline runs the same Worry brigade item on the basis of " new research " ( Adjective "new"should be a reason to bin it but the worshipful brigade see it as symbol of the Gospel )

All about Eve
EVE .....who thought she had a right to know everything ;
Jennifer Byrne is write about one thing. Books can provide relief . Beyond that thought she fails to see the point . That there is no good in writing if there is no good and no evil-- only the endless flight into fantasy
Thus her careless play with the seven deadly sins leaves her in a snake pit with all the asps spitting their venom against good at us .The snake smiled rememember as he said " you know better than most" ---- and nothing really good to say about why Hamlet is a really good play and most of her facsinations and gibes at those who love good , empty and facile.
Sloth she thinks must have its good side especially cause you are not actually commissioning anything - shes been to church; she thinks ommission is deep theology but like many who have been, its innoculated her at really understanding why sin is such an exciting and powerful subject .( because we best avoid it and repent of it - none of that at the ABCTV - we're positivists and determined to recolour the image pink and smile while we do what the rest of the world does; justify own indifference to others and the deep hurts .
Suffice to say that she misses the point it trying to be positive and light about sin .
The deadly disease of indifference ( amongst its many synonymns ) is not menationed by her or any of her guests , Its ok not to care ; just to sit around and solve the worlds problems on the TV without ever going anywhere. ,
Rationalism would make a much better faith if God didn't actually restrict what we see .

Why is the creative arm of our ABC so often depressing
ABCTV in particular . So what do you think ? maybe we should listen to one outsider who reported and wrote very well about his own industries fanaticism .
“We were anti-industry, anti-capitalism, anti-advertising, anti-selling, anti-profit, anti-patriotism, anti-monarchy, anti-Empire, anti-police, anti-armed forces, anti-bomb, anti-authority. Almost anything that made the world a freer, safer and more prosperous place, you name it, we were anti it.” Antony Jay Author of " Yes Minister" talking about the atmosphere in the BBC thirty years ago .
The big question for participants and observers and the ABC board in particular . is whether there is any progress or recognition of this stale old highly reactionary position.
How to get out of the hole? - the only way is to go back out,, the way those affected came in. Will the board allow them to keep digging or give someone who doesn't go to the same church, a decent go ?

Keep the heretics out of church
RE Qanda tonight
To Tony Jones 's credit, he let the man speak .( Brendan O'Neill) And not before time
To Tony Jones 's credit, he let the man speak .( Brendan O'Neill) And not before time
- The left has thought it has the territory of righteousness to itself
- The State has no answer to save people who are labelled bad -- and is getting more and more fanatical in denial of its impotence .
- The Left is not credible to just call its household members "good ".Left is totally missing he point of the law and its workability ( need a moral sense so it has momentum) .
- The Hope of the Left ( The State) is a false hope . The State, as Brendan said, is our new enemy and the new god of the left and the Greens.Its powerless doesn't stop the dummies spending all out taxes chasing the illusive keys to no new kingdom.
- The divorce between the left and the greens has not yet happened because neither of them have left the chapel. "Whats natural is good' being universally adopted rubbish is the same idea |which gives even the right the right to do what they like.
- The left should only be embarrased that its leaders( who claim to represent lots of christains ) don't even know that Easter is about (esp Bob Carr) ; Justice ( and how the concept can possibly be valid in the universe ) , How can West continue if it ditches THIS dichotomy thats worked to prevent bitching and badmouthing in reasonable balance for just a few millenia? Oh yeah it worked the Labor party wouldn't need government funds to promote its dying empty facade of a a working philosophy ( get real boys - Brendan is at least thinking !)
- The left should be embarrassed that Tonys collection of them are so divided and ignorant of ideas other than those claimed in their manifesto ("logic is god" and my logic about how it works beats yours)( science is NOT their trade -- just a value word to most of them - not something they practice-- science has far more complex form of logic and allows for revision! There concept allows for no such division .
- The left don't even know the implications and dangers of holding a simple view of libertarianism .See Radio Nationals ABC white paper !!!!
A bit of thinking outside the square might help them see why they think so much like the Libs and The Greens---- who they assume they despise . Bedfellows and they don't even know it .The danger is if politics too as Brendan implied is widely dogged by misanthropy the whole place is probably in denial about it . Not my church thanks ! We have as Tony so often says "moved on "from that ! So should you.

How rich are we really ?
RE Didn't Tony Jones have a lovely time in church in Shanghai last night ?
According to leading spokesman on ABCTV ( Tony Jones , Alan Kohler ) we are very rich . Not only that we are want the world to have more of our wealth .Here" have democracy" Tony says .We will help you conduct elections (pity we couldn't care less in full practice whether it will do any good) As Kaplan says in his interesting book on substance, rhetoric, real drivers and dumb ideas ,The West often ignores the claims of more discerning thinking; Congregation on qanda proclaimed in church this monday " the rest of the world will one day evolve into the best way ( our way )"
Bracken too warns of our ignorance and arrogance as nationalism in others is only increased by our own weakness of will and intellect .Like Chamberlain before him ,Jones proclaims the the new peace in our time by ignoring the crime . They want what we have, but never paid for ( or forefathers did )or will they ever ? Can't bear watching the dummies on TV offer their simple version of democracy and watching the mature Chinese members of the panel so clearly reject it .It may not look like imperialism to Tony but its a t least close to patronising nonsense from the pulpit -- they sort of said so .
As Laplan says we persist in the wromg things ; we continue to pretend that 'where they are ' is "in a retrograde past that our idea of economic and socail progress moves us beyond" ; the inspirational idea that we are evolving to a better future has always been in history a myth that makes for war .
Best to ditch the word evolve and talk of reform - drop the appealing idealogical drivel that makes us feel better today , but drives the shock of tommorrow .
We are not rich if our kids aren't getting what we had , If what I just said is true, the risk of denial and fanaticism in church is real
Our children are not being educated and not going to get careers like we did as a result of our parents foresight into bigger picture ecomia ; They had, and rightl celebrated, determination and focus( they saved rather than celebrated how much there homes were worth)
What do we celebrate? Do we not celebrate dissipation ,careless talk of democracy( Tony was warned several times by the Chinese who are rightly sick of the West's shallow preoccupation with their idea of numbers and mere talking( =democracy? how dumb! -
We can't wait to talk of how we are selling more wheat and beef even though we still don't pay our farmers enough to pass the lifestyle onto their children . We glory in the value of our houses , the wonder of our wines, the better margin we extracted out of the poor , but the walls of our fortresses are not straight . Mere money won't support buildings whose foundations that are only skin deep; whose riches are no longer the rights and responsibility of everybody in the household. We maybe personally rich , but what is that when we could still be commonwealth rich?
The world is not waiting for democracy, it is waiting for strong leadership. The abcchurch doctrine of democracy is rejected outside of church. Its a shallow concept of democracy where every one has a say but only dinasaur driven consensus must "evolve" the way with niceness (" aren't we a friendly country "Q&A last night ) the theme .Oh dear !Aussies are the innocents - anyone looking outside in will tell you that !
The Parties are so dumb, ignorant, careless and hypocritical on this that they all talk of jobs - not careers. Anyone watching would think we we were on a treadmill .
The proverb says it well ( Prov. 4:7 ) Pay the price for real wisdom - it's worth everything . It's what makes one really rich......Commonwealth rich.
