has just granted church schools $4.5 billion over the next ten years to facilitate upgrades. This is
despite our government-run schools' pupils being housed in decrepit transportable classrooms with
no air-conditioning, broken windows, and leaking roofs.
There's an increasing concern, in a nominally secular country like Australia, that there's an increased
faith-based delivery of social and community services by the government. Although 31% of our
population is non-religious, more than two-thirds of the government's social aid goes to religious
support organisations.
The catholics in the US handle a large percentage of federal dollar disbursement for aide. (half the catholics think it's all their donated funds) They have the built in infrastructure.
Never received any, but hopefully not to much brainwashing is included with a bag o groceries.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
