Here is Lawrence Krauss in 1990 on this subject.

The Federal Chaplaincy Program

The Commonwealth Chaplaincy Program may not be against the Constitution as such but the Commonwealth Government is definitely promoting a religion, namely the Christian religion.
Julia and Tony are proselytising a religion with all the power of our ’secular’ government, this is wrong in so many ways.

The Catholic church only shows compassion to its clergy, victims of abuse from priests are the people made to feel guilt, the clergy get forgiven.

Is Australia Becoming A Theocracy

We need to express our concerns about the way the Australian ‘Christian’ Lobby are becoming a major influence over our policy makers.

That’s just medieval.

The leaders of our major political parties are fellow travelers with the “Australian Christian Lobby!”

Rudd and Abbott to do webcast for Australian Christian Lobby

Why do our leaders have to suck up to the Christian Lobby?
I think there is something wrong in this country. Are we heading for a theocracy like the one in Iran but with Brian Houston as our President?

Dear ACL Supporter

I am pleased to announce that Prime Minister Kevin Rudd and Leader of the Opposition Tony [...]
