- I don't care stongly where migrants come from as long as they have thought hard about why they want to come to Australia, with its predominant anglo Christian heritage and values, and english language.....and after thinking hard about it, have determined they want the opportunity and freedom our prevailing system offers more than they want to hold to the values and system they are so motivated to flee.
- I expect migrants to study, understand, and respect Australia's Anglo Christian heritage, and its role in evolving the political, legal, law enforcement, health care, and education system that has delivered us all the benefits of the democracy we enjoy today. Sure, I accept it isn't perfect, but show me anywhere else in the world that is better....and why we should change our system.
I have not met many people in Australia who actually respect and follow the Christian heritage or values. I looked up Wikipedia to see what it meant:
Today, in the 21st century, the phrases "Christian values" and family values are being used by conservative political groups [1] [2] [3] to describe the following values:
censorship of sexual content, especially in movies and on television
the desirability of laws against induced abortion
sexual abstinence outside of marriage and abstinence-only education[4]
the promotion of intelligent design to be taught in public schools and colleges as an "alternative" to evolution
the desirability of laws against same-sex marriage and support for laws against the acceptance of homosexuality into mainstream society
the desirability of re-instituting faculty-led prayer in taxpayer-funded schools[5]
Are these the types of values that you yourself follow and expect all migrants to do the same?
