The storm clouds of poverty. Illustration by Megan Herbert. Read the letters to the editor here:
“If you don’t have friends of colour, then that’s a red flag” . Let’s all go out and get some. Hang on though, I live in a small town and there aren’t very many people of colour here. What should I do, Emma, advertise? Perhaps you should stop to consider that whoever our friends are, most of us don’t cultivate specific friendships just because it looks good.I have been a St Kilda supporter for 80 years and the sacking of coach Brett Ratten is the last straw.
Teams in the early 2000s were well-coached and would have run through a brick wall for the guernsey. Ross Lyon should have been a premiership coach in 2010 and since his departure, we have never looked like a team that could win a flag. The club’s president Andrew Bassat is right, we need to toughen up, but the buck stops with him and I hope he is strong enough for the challenge.– “I’m an atheist and I’m ashamed of it” – is wrong to espouse religious literacy as the saviour of our society.
Indeed, our ability to inhabit the tension between ideas of faith and doubt has led to great advancement of civilisations. Religious literacy that is too narrowly focused is as likely to promote pride and intolerance as atheism or the worldwide web.An interesting article from Parnell Palme McGuinness. It is only in questioning that we can come to clear understanding of what religion has given us and what it also demands of us with rules and regulations.
