We already have in place adequate and effective discrimination laws. To specifically develop a new set of laws for a minority group to protect their specific needs over against the rights of larger groups in our society elevate their rights to a place higher than anyone else. This is not a good thing to do. A generalised law which is accessible by all levels of society is a far more equitable system than giving specific focus to one specific group. To force the so called "rights" of one group of our society upon the other groups is surely a road to discrimination in another form. The LGBJI group is a highly sensitive group in our society who use emotive response as a manipulative tool to get their own way over against the rights of others. The recent decision in Victoria against a Christian Youth Camp who refused hiring their camp facilities to a homosexual support group is a good example of the crushing of another groups rights in favour of one segment of the society. There are other secular camp sites that are available to this group. This was a pure case of religious discrimination on the part of the courts. Many religions have very strong beliefs against the practice of homosexuality and lesbianism. It is not discrimination against people but rather against a practice which is considered to be against the teaching of that group. In fact in relation to the Christian community they actually teach love and respect for all people and discrimination against people is against their teaching. But the teaching against what they believe to be immoral behaviour comes in the area of doctrine not in the area of discrimination against people per se. So I come back to my deep concern that specific group discrimination law is in itself discriminatory. Our current anti-discrimination laws are sufficient to give fair hearing to any and all groups within our society so I call on this Commission to proceed no further with laws that, in essence, create religious discrimination rather than deal with true discrimination. &'uЧ h Й 6 7 ‚ М Н С Ч X _ ` ћ š ъ 9 ˆ элЩХГЁm[ХГХЁFЁХЁГ[)hXt/6@ˆќџB*CJ]aJmH phsH #hXt/@ˆ§џB*CJaJmH phsH #hXt/@ˆћџB*CJaJmH phsH hXt/B*CJaJmH phsH #hXt/@ˆџџB*CJaJmH phsH #hXt/@ˆќџB*CJaJmH phsH #hXt/@ˆўџB*CJaJmH phsH hXt/#hXt/@ˆіџB*CJaJmH phsH #h |@ˆњџB*CJaJmH phsH #hXt/@ˆњџB*CJaJmH phsH '7 Н ` їьэjщвУЌ™†ss_„d‚ў-DMЦ џџџџ^„gd)T„d‚ўЄЪ-DMЦ џџџџ^„„d‚ўЄЛ-DMЦ џџџџ^„„d{ўЄД-DMЦ џџџџ^„„„d{ўЄЛ-DMЦ џџџџ]„^„d‚ўЄ—-DMЦ џџџџ„M„dœ§Є2-DMЦ џџџџ]„M^„„Mdœ§Є2-DMЦ џџџџ]„Mgd | jўˆ и $vіїF™ыэ?ijэлЩлХлэЩХГэХ#hXt/@ˆўџB*CJaJmH phsH hXt/#hXt/@ˆќџB*CJaJmH phsH #hXt/@ˆ§џB*CJaJmH phsH #hXt/@ˆB*CJaJmH phsH  2 00PАа/ Ар=!АМ"Ањ#N$h%ААаАа </0PАа/ Ар=!Ав"А# $а%ААаАа <†œP@ёџP Normal1$7$8$H$OJQJ^J_HmH sH tH DAђџЁD Default Paragraph FontRiѓџГR  Table Normalі4ж l4жaі (kєџС(No List T™ђT ˆ Balloon Text1$7$8$H$CJOJQJ^JaJэjџџџџ4џџџџ'7Н`їьэl˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€˜0€€X‘0€˜0€€ˆ j j j ЉД$*–Ÿl  FLэяl333iilil х |gRq!\*Xt/)Tˆ.<О Gёџ@€фYэj№@џџUnknownџџџџџџџџџџџџG‡z €џTimes New Roman5€Symbol3& ‡z €џArial5& ‡za€џTahoma"Aˆаhц ьf№Ђь&KK!ЅРxxƒ2ff2ƒзп№џ?џџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџgR2џџ Kate Schuetzeўџр…ŸђљOhЋ‘+'Гй0p˜ЄАМШдш   , 8 DPX`hф Normal.dotKate Schuetze6Microsoft Office Word@Œ†G@фb№Ы@рмŒпŸЫKўџеЭеœ.“—+,љЎ0ш hp|„Œ” œЄЌД М Щфf'  Title ўџџџўџџџўџџџ !"#$%ўџџџ§џџџ(ўџџџўџџџўџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџRoot Entryџџџџџџџџ РF0 ­пŸЫ*€1TableџџџџџџџџWordDocumentџџџџџџџџeSummaryInformation(џџџџDocumentSummaryInformation8џџџџџџџџџџџџCompObjџџџџџџџџџџџџqџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџўџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџўџ џџџџ РFMicrosoft Office Word Document MSWordDocWord.Document.8є9Вq
