Prime Minister Scott Morrison has rightly savaged a “ridiculous” move in Tasmania to make inclusion of a baby’s gender on a birth certificate an “opt-in” decision for parents.

The changes passed Tasmania’s lower house on 20 November, after rogue Liberal Speaker Sue Hickey voted with Labor and the Greens in favour of the radical changes.

In this week’s update: Protest in the air within Australia’s Uniting Church, the UK primary school indoctrinating six-year-old children, and the Romanian Parliament votes to define marriage as union of a man and a woman.

One of Australia’s largest Christian denominations, the Uniting Church, has amended its teaching to permit same-sex ‘marriages’.

In fact, in an alarming indication that even churches are no longer free of radical gender ideology, it refers to them as “same-gender marriages”.

In this week’s update: some fantastic AFC news to share, Ghana rejects same-sex “marriage”, the NSW upper house passes an anti-pro-life bill and Ireland abandons its pro-life protections.

We kick off this week’s update with some good news: we have met our target for our “Thank you, Bermuda” campaign. That means over 1000 supporters have now added their thank you to Bermuda on standing for man-woman marriage!

As a result, we will send an official letter of encouragement for Bermuda this week on your behalf.  We hope it will greatly encourage Bermudans to remain firm on true marriage.

The past week has been far from boring – with the resignation of our deputy prime minister and the appointment of his successor, the brewing of a trans-Tasman transgender dispute and the passing away of “America’s pastor”. Please read on.

Last week, we shared with you that Bermuda was being pressured by international LGBT groups for reinstating marriage as only between a man and a woman.

We can now report the good news that, despite pressure from Labour and the Greens in the UK, the British Government will not intervene in the situation.

Submissions for the Federal Government inquiry into religious freedom are now closed, and the committee is due to report its findings on 31 March.

Thank you to all of our supporters who joined us in standing up for religious freedom by writing and lodging a submission. 

Below is the AFC submission to the panel, which argues there are significant challenges to religious freedom here in Australia, and that strong, positive protections for religious freedom should be written into Australian law.

This 41 second clip will leave you in no doubt about what we're really voting on in the plebiscite.
