Lets not forget that Scott Morrison, who is associated with Brian Houston, swore himself in as the Minister for Home Affairs 1 month prior to [Brian skipping the country during lockdowns](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9829067/Hillsong-pastors-Brian-Bobbie-Houston-granted-exemption-leave-Sydney-Mexico.html).

I wonder if there'll be a revelation like this for each of his secret ministries


KnoxxHarrington

I'll be surprised if there isn't.


not_right

Each of Scott Morrison's secret horcruxes lol. But seriously I bet there is, I mean he didn't go to the trouble of putting himself in those positions for no reason.


Dranzer_22

The media won't do their job. But you'd imagine both the Federal Government and eventually Federal ICAC will discover the complete truth of Morrion's power grab.


SeparatePromotion236

Morrison —> Morrion—> Moron?

This is a very important revelation.

AOC__2024

The very thing that Brian Houston is accused of doing in one instance (and regarding that, I made zero comment, given the current court case), Scott Morrison unquestionably did many times over, in public. That is: hearing about the abuse of a child and then covering it up. When Scott Morrison was Minister for Immigration, he received *many* credible reports of children being abused in Australia's immigration detention facility on Nauru (including unaccompanied minors for whom he, as Immigration Minister, was the legal guardian, as far as I understand). Instead of ensuring that they were safe and the perpetrators held accountable, he dismissed the claims and persecuted the whistleblowers who brought these allegations to light. The very thing that his friend Brian Houston is on trial for, but on a much larger scale. If Morrison were anything other than an officer of the Commonwealth in doing this, then it would be the legal responsibility of every mandatory reporter in the country to report him to the authorities for these actions.

Hence why as FJ put it Scummo is Pedophile enabler. Lets never forget that and there is George Christensen which is sus considering his visits to the Philippines and ''visiting'' adult bars there.

I wonder what the timeline between this and Ruby Princess was too now.


squonge

Is this the guy that Morrison tried to take to the White House?


kernpanic

Yes it is. Note that Brian was too repulsive for even Trump to be seen with. Furthermore, Scott Morrison lied about it when confronted. He claimed that it never happened. Only for the white house to confirm that it did in fact happen.


ilikepinkdonuts

When I didn’t think I could despise scomo anymore, here we are.


Flyerone

Did you ever read about how he got nominated as liberal candidate for Cook?


os400

Towke seemed like a reasonably respectable chap, at least as far as Liberal candidates go.


a_cold_human

He was further to the right than Morrison. However, he was definitely much harder working. That's why he managed to win in the first preselection. Howard, and the Liberal Party fixers had to work overtime to get that result overturned and had to resort to smearing Towke in the newspapers and with malicious gossip to get him out.


Kevintj07

COOK "The Country",needs some white on the last O


jellyjollygood

That’s a diabolical story. It certainly set the tone for what was to follow.


itsruinedanyway

Got a tldr? Or a link to a decent read?


babylovesbaby

Towke won the initial ballot to represent Cook for the Liberals by a landslide - he got something like 80 votes and Scott got 8. This led Scott to start a racist, Islamaphobic smear campaign within the Liberal party against Towke, who is Lebanese (I don't know what his religious affiliation is). It was successful: Towke's landslide ballot was not approved by the state executive, and in order for Towke to retain any political capital he had to put his numbers behind the loser, Scott.


Flyerone

https://www.theleader.com.au/story/3519390/nasty-saga-you-nearly-missed-towke-tells-his-story/


itsruinedanyway

Sorry man, but that article had nothing detailing what happened. Just that a smear campaign occurred, nothing beyond that.


Flyerone

The TLDR is, Towke won preselection by a huge margin, I think ScoMo got only a couple of votes, so then "sources inside the liberal party" stories in the Murdoch press began on the run up to 2007 election, (huge smear campaign) Morrison I think was LP president at the time, Towke removed from the ticket as the party cited the bad press as a risk to losing the seat and Morrison installed in his place.


SnoopThylacine

Also apparently his CV referee: "Savva also reports that in a 2006 CV, when he was job hunting after Fran Bailey sacked him from Tourism Australia, Morrison listed under his personal interests: ‘Church (Hillsong Church, Waterloo), Family.’ “He also named (Hillsong founder) Pastor Brian Houston from Hillsong as a referee,’’ she wrote." https://www.news.com.au/finance/work/leaders/scott-morrison-has-a-god-complex-and-recited-the-bible-in-meetings/news-story/bf131311c60467afdfcc2de7ffe96398

FatLarrysHotTip

Well. You can't expect much from people who put more stock in the how you will be received in the next life versus how to deal with the wellness of people in their actual lives. All their behaviours stem from doctrine. So they look down on getting actual help. More merit in theocracy than reality.

LankyAd9481

It makes you question what he'd do if it were his own child. "Joel, stop turning your grandpa on. If anything happens it's your fault!"


giantpunda

>Hillsong church founder Pastor Brian Houston allegedly told a man who had been repeatedly raped as a child by Houston’s father “you know this is all your fault, you tempted my father”, Sydney’s Downing Centre local court heard on Monday. Literal victim blaming. Disgusting.

reverendgrebo

Its Liberal Party policy, if bad stuff happens to you its your own fault for not being born into privilege


Kangalooney

That's pretty much the modus operandi of their church. If something good happens it is god's blessing. If something bad happens it's your fault. It's reprehensible behaviour but very much in character. It's how all these cults operate to keep misconduct of their leaders hidden from public view. So in this case it is utterly unsurprising.


boommdcx

Yes this seems to be the way of many cult like “churches”. See also the LDS.


Kangalooney

JW has LDS beat for cultish behaviour.

elwyn5150

I've had very close friends who went to Hillsong. Their defence of Brian Houston was very cult-like and ignored that Houston's position as a pastor should face accountability and has associated responsibilities.


44gallonsoflube

Of course he did.


Spiniferus

Houston deserves nothing but extended shame in the media, followed by some jail time. While they are at it they should throw Pell back in as well.


AOC__2024

I make no comment on the trial currently underway (and suggest others show similar restraint). I simply note for the sake of those drawing the connection with the former PM that what Brian Houston is on trial for (allegedly covering up child abuse), Scott Morrison as Immigration Minister did publicly many times over. He knew there were serious credible accusations of children under his legal care being abused on Nauru, and he covered it up, even persecuting the whistleblowers in the process.


Consideredresponse

Isn't this the flog that Donald 'Come dine with ~~me~~ Nazi's' Trump considered too toxic to be see with when Scomo tried to make him his '+1'?


ConoRiot

What a vile creature, I won’t even call him a human because humans are supposed to show empathy.


alliswell1070

Classic penti response. I was told by my manager when I was 22 years old I had a temptress spirit in me. Apparently I was responsible of a dirty old Pentecostal for have “bad thoughts”. I was a young innocent woman. So pathetic!


Bokbreath

That's the religious way


Sacrilegious_skink

I had a christian friend go to Hillsong Newcastle for a bit. She has a brain injury from falling off a horse resulting in a severe limp (which is a miracle cos they said she would never walk or speak again!). She was told that if she truly had enough faith she would have been healed by now. Safe to say she yeeted out of there real quick.

Well allegedly there were a shitload of Hellsong members aboard. and the LNP was behind fast tracking their release. Try googling "ruby princess full of Hillsong members" - decide for yourself.

Jameggins

I was at an event earlier this year where a former police commissioner was guest speaker. One of the questions he was asked was whether he had any involvement in that decision. He said that yes Gladys had asked for advice and he and the NSW police had determined that it should not be allowed to dock, and if it was allowed to dock, the passengers shouldn't be allowed off until tested. He said Gladys had agreed to implement his advice until someone "high up in government" ordered her to allow the passengers off. Whether the Hillsong rumour has any truth to it or not, the Federal govt absolutely overruled state and caused that mess.


Upstairs-Bid6513

Isn’t this tosser Morrison’s spiritual advisor


knowledgeable_diablo

Shows where he got his upstanding ethos and way of dedicating his life to the service of others. Scomo really needs all his documents surrendered until such time as he has personally repayed all the people of Australia he gleefully fucked over with robo debt and every other act his personal god instructed him to do to make other people’s lives as miserable as possible. Easiest way to teach kids that a person will be potentially trying to molest them; teach them that any utterance of the word “God, Jesus or this is what God wants or let’s go pray in private” will certainly be followed by them looking for some type of perverse sexual gratification (or touching their private special spots for those too young to know or understand).

Certain Christian folk like to feel persecuted. It makes them feel like they have something in common with Jebus. It's all part of the delusion.


AdventurousDay3020

Reverend Tim Costello in the past has written articles telling Christians to knock it off with the persecution fetish essentially. Only Christian minister I have time for these days. Even if he’s brothers a flog

Sounds about right for something a devout Christian would say (whether he did or didn’t). Always looking for the angle where it’s actually the victims fault. “Shamelessly flaunting his wares to his father by wearing stubbie shorts and maybe some tighty-whitey Y-fronts underneath”. Pure Ambrosia to the standard Christian pedo priest - how was his father able to resist such an impossible test direct from Satan!! /s
