Australia and America are two of the greatest and longeststanding democracies in the world; with both countries’ democratic pioneers making written references to God and “The Creator” – leaving not a doubt in the world that both, Australia and America were built on Judeo-Christian values/foundations.

So why has there been no great media coverage in Australia of the hundreds of thousands of Americans so very recently gathering, so very peacefully and reverently, in Washington celebrating America’s Judeo-Christian heritage?

Why is the mainstream media so afraid to show and discuss this huge Christian event that included close relatives of that great African American Christian, Dr Martin Luther King?

Recently standing outside Boston’s great public park, I read the 17th-century Christian references engraved in stone by Boston’s civic founders!

Was not Boston the founding city of democratic America?

What of the Boston Tea Party?

The Lord’s Prayer is still said in the Australian Parliament, so why are Jesus Christ’s teachings so unsettling for so many modern Australians and Americans? Christ (he did exist!) spent his life on Earth in sacrifice for the love of mankind!

Yes, some terrible things have been said and done in Christ’s name; but never said, done nor condoned by Christ Himself!

So if Albert Einstein could acknowledge “The Creator”; why, do so many clever people and cultural elites fear the man always turning his other cheek?
