New 'soul of Port Adelaide' Aboriginal culture centre opens 8-)

My yearning has led me to physics, philosophy, theology, accumulating a library of books, completing a PhD, writing books of my own and all of it maybe amounts to less than a falling leaf.

Saint Thomas Aquinas after experiencing the presence of God late in life, said that all he had written was straw.

We do not derive the truth from knowledge or news, we feel it. We participate in God — what Aquinas called ipsum esse, the act of existence — in our repose, in the quiet, in nature and in our mortality, the finality of our existence.

No one reads yesterday's headlines. But we return to the poets. A line of poetry is greater than a mountain of newsprint.


I want to be closer to ipsum esse. I want to wonder at the turning seasons and be attentive to the souls of those with whom I share a breath, the water, the stars and this land.

In America. Grey Music man and his Black Maths mate are the Wankers for free sex (but can't breed as well as the Rednecks).

In Australia. Grey Music man and his Black Maths mate are the Yobbos for free money (handouts from the taxpayers).

The taxpayer handouts never stop -


Quote:

$35.2 million Aboriginal cultural centre

All funded by taxpayers. Not a zack by Aboriginals.

Thank whitey workers or you'd have phuk all.

This Irish bloke is not an Aboriginal.

That smiles tell you that he knows he's having a lend of us.
Aboriginality is becoming as preposterous as 'women with penises'.

Ludicrous.

I like going up to Abos and trying to scab money off them.  :D

It’s NAIDOC Week and they don’t want your child to forget it

Children are taught concepts such as ‘invasion’ and ‘decolonisation’, promoting a grievance-based narrative that casts Aboriginal Australians as perpetual victims and others as oppressors – fostering division and resentment, not understanding.

And this saturation is not limited to NAIDOC Week alone. In addition to NAIDOC week, there is National Reconciliation Week and Sorry Day, as well as a range of other individual days scheduled in the calendar.

The tone of these ‘celebrations’ is not one of a balanced understanding of history or of reconciliation, as is often claimed. The undertone messaging promulgates an uncritical, divisive, activist agenda of victimhood, grievance and reparation, wrapped up in slogans and pretty wrist bands for children as young as five.

By contrast, Australia Day is presented in a negative light, not as a cause for celebration of national unity or democratic achievement. Instead, Australia Day is presented as a day of invasion, mourning and dispossession, of guilt and grievance. Schools are told it is a ‘day of mourning’, and students are more likely to be given a lesson in anti-colonisation than anything about the achievements of a free and prosperous nation. Colouring-in sheets of the Australian flag, wristbands saying ‘Proud to be Australian’, or songs about unity or democracy are conspicuously absent.

The struggle for the soul of the coming generations (a.k.a.  education) is ongoing.   As the poet of Crawford, Texas,  asked, 'Is our children learning?' and what?

They can tell that to the Media freaks.

He sure looks like an indigenous Irishman to me.
There’s native Irish Leprechaun there to be sure, to be sure.
