In terms of the work that the Catholic church does that other churches and religious groups do in our society, I am a big respecter and my history has been to be a big supporter

— Gillard told reporters.

Note: No qualifications. “The work … (they) … do in our society.”

This work mainly consists of brain-washing vulnerable pre-adults at tax-payers’ expense, abusing kiddies mentally & corporally, with significant immunity from prosecution for acts that if committed by a non-religious person  would result in immediate prosecution.

Dawkins and others (myself included) have rightly termed this religious indoctrination of infants as profound child abuse.

I’ve worked well and respectfully with the representatives of Catholic schools around the country … and that’s the approach that I will continue to take as prime minister

— She added.

“Respect” these genocidal power-mad criminals? This is dreadful.

I guess she also respects those barbarous creeps who genitally mutilate their infants?

Or the actions of the Mafia? For that describes the catlick church to a ‘T’.

Politicians: who needs ‘em?!

Power-mad criminals need them, it seems.
