Australia’s Biggest Ever Online Political Rally for Free Speech!

A Mere Symptom of a Much Bigger Problem

Church And State director, Dave Pellowe, was asked at a ticketed meeting in a Christian church of Christians wanting to hear Christian teaching on important political issues why he made a point to read Psalm 24:1 instead of the politically correct “Acknowledgement of Country”.

His factual and unflattering analysis of traditional Aboriginal religion contrasted with Christianity was falsely reported to the Queensland Human Rights Commission as “vilification and humiliation” of an individual because of his race and religion.

The QHRC has accepted the complaint and is compelling Dave to attend conciliation hearings, with further judgements against him possible if he doesn’t publicly apologise for preaching the Gospel as he did and undergo re-education in Aboriginal suffering.

The increasingly evident problem is a society and legal systems which nurture easily offended citizens to quickly choose lawfare, the weaponisation of the grievance industry to punish uncomfortable, unapproved opinions. Para-judicial bureaucrats are creating victims of innocent, usually defenceless people.

It’s time to urgently intervene in injustice.

Raise a Shield

On Tuesday night 20 August, this page hosted, “Defending Democracy“. CAS brought together many of Australia’s best loved, right thinking politicians, independent journalists and commentators, academics and influencers to rally for a defence of democratic essentials like freedom of speech and religion.

The full replay is available above for you to watch now.

You’ll hear short but passionate speeches and interviews with names and faces you’ll know and love like Alex Antic, Malcolm Roberts, Ralph Babet, Damian Coory, Avi Yemeni, George Christensen, Lyle Shelton, Alexandra Marshall, Topher Field, Stephen Chavura, Warren Mundine, Andrew Cooper, James Allan, Augusto Zimmermann, Gabriel Moens, Michelle Pearse, John Steenhof, Gary Johns, Andrew Cedra, John Ruddick, Daisy Cousens and more.

Enough is enough.

It’s time to raise a shield against the sword of government, a sword of lawfare being wielded maliciously against Christians, conservatives and other right thinking people by grievance activsts.

Australians are sending a loud and clear message to every citizen:

“If you are unjustly targeted with lawfare because of the free exercise of your conscience, we’ve got your back.”

We raised $140,000 in just three hours to begin a significant war chest for HRLA, the Human Rights Law Alliance, our shield against the sword of government. Can we still double or triple that? Yes, if you make sure everyone you know watches this and responds to the sadly still urgent need.

Let’s send the weaponised anti-discrimination industry a message that there are no easy targets any more.
