Brethren to take on the Whore of Babylon in Bennelong


The Exclusive Brethren are a fundamentalist Christian religious sect that eschews politics, so much so that, while its members are forbidden to vote, they did campaign on behalf of the Howard Government in the 2004 Federal Election, and on behalf of NZ conservative parties in 2005. The reason? "Satan infiltrates government and legislation seeking to weaken man’s sense of what is due to God. No enlightened Christian would stand by and do nothing while ignorant persons call good evil, and evil good."

In 2004, Satan preselected one of his minions, Andrew Wilkie, to run as a Greens candidate against the God-ordained incumbent PM John Howard in the seat of Bennelong. Fortunately, the Exclusive Brethren were on hand to heckle the demon, taunting him about his marriage and about the homosexuality of Greens leader Bob Brown. In the end, Jeebus won the day and Howard was re-elected.

But now, in 2007, Satan's having another crack at the seat of God's ordained leader. This time the Evil One is being represented by Maxine McKew, whose former career as an ABC journalist simply underlines the threat she poses to our Christian democracy. And so, it's time for the Knights of the Exclusive Brethren to saddle up and confront the new demon McKew in the name of Jesus H. Howard.

Enlightened Christians across the country are depending on them.
