Everyone talks about 'moral and traditional' values. Who is to say that we all have to abide by such rules?
Not everyone is traditional, in fact, the younger generation are hardly traditional at all, and this is only going to grow as we get more and more younger people forming their opinions.

Very soon, Australia WILL have same sex marriage and same sex adoption. It is silly to suggest otherwise. Older Australians are more likely to cling to traditional views, whereas young folk are more likely to show support for SSM and same sex adoption.

It is only a matter of time, and hopefully, when it happens, those who oppose it will realise that gays and lesbians can also be great parents.

I agree Vanessa. Older Australians aren't too flexible in their thinking when it comes to changing traditional values.

Our children will be the ones demanding an egalitarian Australia in the future and you're right - same sex relationships are just something they're growing up with and look upon them as "normal" unless their parents have indoctrinated them with the old Christian values - not that there's anything wrong with that, but the world is changing.

The future is reminiscent of an old story by HG Wells - the Time Machine narrated by the Time Traveller.


The Time Traveller tests his device with a journey that takes him to the year A.D. 802,701, where he meets the Eloi, a society of small, elegant, androgynous, and childlike people. They live in small communities within large and futuristic yet slowly deteriorating buildings, doing no work and having a frugivorous diet. His efforts to communicate with them are hampered by their lack of curiosity or discipline, and he concludes that they are a peaceful communist society, the result of humanity conquering nature with technology, and subsequently evolving to adapt to an environment in which strength and intellect are no longer advantageous to survival.

Later in the dark, he is approached menacingly by the Morlocks, pale, apelike people who live in darkness underground, where he discovers the machinery and industry that makes the above-ground paradise possible. He alters his theory, speculating that the human race has evolved into two species: the leisured classes have become the ineffectual Eloi, and the downtrodden working classes have become the brutish light-fearing Morlocks. Deducing that the Morlocks have taken his time machine, he explores the Morlock tunnels, learning that they feed on the Eloi. His revised analysis is that their relationship is not one of lords and servants but of livestock and ranchers, and with no real challenges facing either species. They have both lost the intelligence and character of Man at its peak.

Even right down to their passing same-sex marriage and adoption to allude to a false sense of 'independence' 'freedom' is referred to in this book...  he saw this coming too.

It's trickery,(communism veiled as republicanism/socialism)  and if you have a brain in your head, you will at least educate yourself with respects to both sides of the argument.

You are an ignorant fool, at least I delve into both sides of the debate, you with your half-cocked ignorance, and self-absorbed assured 'ideology' are completely ignorant to the fact that racism and prejudice has nothing to do with our power over our nations autonomy, our sovereignty, the civil liberties and our right to reap the rewards of our own harvest being whittled away under the 'caring' banner of multiculturalism.

You are being drip-fed the 'racism mantra' ....  you really need to make this distinction now before you no longer have a say.

Racism has nothing to do with sovereignty, or our constitutional rights as Australian citizens, (wherever we come from).

You have no idea what will transpire in the event either of our two leading party's fail to restore changes made 'unlawfully'  to our constitution, and more concerning, I'm concerned they themselves lack insight into this world order agenda also, under the guise of 'free-trade' ....it's far from free!

We will be who are left to pay the price...the debt.

With increasing foreign debt, and our industries already 40% foreignly owned ...  Look, all I ask is that you delve into it.

Please don't be arrogant about this, this may be our last chance to turn this thing around, and yes, I do believe it's still possible, despite what the plutocrats say.

a baby needs an egg and some sperm to start.
that means a mummy and a daddy.
that's who is meant to have babies. mummys and daddys.

babies are not started through some sperm and some faeces.
