"To those who argue the separation of Church and State as reason for excluding God from more and more of our institutions and everyday life, may I just say: separation of Church and State was not to protect the people of this country from religious values; it was to protect religious values from government tyranny."
- Oh, just Eric Abetz again, this time quoting Ronald Reagan (!) and completely misunderstanding the entire point of our democratic governmental system.

"If Christianity goes, the whole of our culture goes. Then you must start painfully, again."
-
Eric Abetz, quoting TS Eliot from 65 years ago, while addressing the Australian Christian Lobby at the weekend.
At the 2011 Census, 50.2% of people identified as some form of Christian, so, technically, only half of our culture would go.

"That’s cake-and-eat-it-too comedy: not crossing the line by deliberately crossing it, and bringing that to the audience’s attention. MacFarlane’s ‘Worst Host Ever’ gag similarly insulates him against criticism. When a story (such as the Daily Beast one above) accuses him of such, it only makes the joke better. And labelling the ‘We Saw Your Boobs’ number as “sexist” only enforces why the structure of the joke works."
- Luke Buckmaster, who I reckon must be the country’s worst critic, giving props to Seth MacFarlane’s Oscars idiocy on Crikey.

Oh my God, Gerard Henderson’s article on gay marriage in Fairfax today is hilarious. His chief rebuttals: we’ll have blokes calling their spouses “husband”, and that according to gossip, Elton John’s partner David Furnish is listed on their kid’s birth certificate as “mother”.
WHAT WILL WE DO IF WORDS CHANGE THEIR MEANING OH MY GOD

I just found this invitation to a girl’s 18th birthday party at my boss’ house. The theme is “Dress as a stereotypical nationality”. It is literally the most racist thing I’ve ever seen.
