If there are any theocratic Christians out there, and I don’t doubt you that there are, they don’t represent mainstream Christian thinking, and they have little chance of achieving their aims anyway. Theologian Tom Frame touches on this in his book, “Losing My Religion: Belief and Unbelief in Australia.”

Just like some muslims want to turn Australia into a theocracy, some christians and jews want to do the same. They’ve told me this themselves.

The reality about shopping for food is that there are few halal certified foods. Most of the foods in the supermarkets are neither halal or kosher, go check.

The core difference is that unlike Muslims, I don’t know any Christians (or Jews, for that matter) who want to turn Australia into a theocracy. Some Muslims dream of bringing about a worldwide caliphate. They’ve told me this themselves. And when you go to Coles, Woolies, Aldi, IGA, chances are that many of their product lines are halal certified, whether you like it or not. And you as a consumer are probably unaware of this, and you have no say in how the halal certification fees are being used.

All religion is unnecessary. The islamic religion is no different. Sharia law is no more acceptable to me than christian law or jewish law, it's all based on myths and lies. In one comment you accuse me of using hillbilly theology and in your next comment you do the same thing. I have no problems with whatever relationships people want to have. The only criteria is that they must be consenting adults, they must freely want to belong in the relationship.

Do any of the following aspects of Islam bother you? This comes from actual conversations with Muslim evangelists in Melbourne. I asked one of them about the Hajj, which all of them had done, his understanding of Jihad (striving to be a good Muslim), the jizya tax (not at all punitive or repressive in his view), and Sharia law, which he talked about in a positive fashion. He also spoke in favour of polygamy, because women outnumber men, and there aren’t enough men to go around. If a man can have more than one wife, it means that these women don’t have to be alone. He also said some offensive things about Jews and their alleged control of the international banking system.
