“Aboriginal followers of a Tongan-born preacher have set fire to artefacts considered sacred by many local elders, and dismantled and burned a spiritual law ground.”
Religion makes people do stupid and abhorrent things. The ignorance-fuelled righteous arrogance of these christians destroying culture artefacts of other belief systems is astounding. But hardly surprising. Christian (Muslim and other) missionaries have been committing such cultural terrorism for centuries.
This “prophetess” is hardly a beacon of law abiding morality either. She works “cash-in-hand jobs, despite admitting she’s not legally allowed to work in Australia due to her visa status.” And she happily ignores the verses in the bible the forbids a woman to teach.
When the stupid moves beyond the personal lives of believes to negatively affect others, this is when religion becomes toxic and needs to be hauled back into line.
