I have written two posts on Critical Theory and its devastating impact on our world. In particular, three days ago, How Critical Theory is Destroying Western Civilisation. This was made possible because our political and educational establishments jettisoned God and His values many years ago.

I am quoting from an article in the Weekend Australian 06/08/2023 by Janet Albrechtsen

Amid all the reactions to the extraordinarily damning findings by Walter Sofronoff KC about the behaviour of ACT Director of Public Prosecutions Shane Drumgold, one question stands out. Why? Why would a man at the pinnacle of the Australian legal profession behave so badly?

It is hard to comprehend why someone in that esteemed position could possibly think it was acceptable to try to conceal crucial evidence from the defence and, in doing so, lie not once but several times to a court, make numerous allegations he knew to be baseless, throw his staff and colleagues under the bus, and in critical respects ignore the protocols and etiquette of his profession?

The deafening silence in response to the Sofronoff report from most political and media quarters – starting with the ABC, which appears more concerned about how this important report was leaked – tells you they regard this as an irritating glitch that will slow but not stop their campaign to right social wrongs by whatever means necessary.

For these people, more convictions for sexual assault and rape are an absolute necessity if we are to mitigate what is undoubtedly a historical evil. If, in pursuit of more convictions, the occasional innocent man goes to jail, so be it. You can’t make omelettes without breaking eggs. So, this reasoning goes, a little collateral damage to principles such as the presumption of innocence, due process, and natural justice and the traditional rules of evidence is an acceptable compromise in the big scheme of things.

While we all share the aim of eliminating or reducing sexual assault, a little knowledge of history tells you that being prepared to sacrifice the odd innocent person to do so is not a trade-off a civilised society can accept. It is trite but true to say the road to hell is paved with good intentions.

Serious questions need to be asked of the ACT government, too. How did Drumgold get appointed to his role? Was he the best candidate? What kind of vetting took place? And this: does the ACT criminal justice system prioritise convictions over justice? Has the ACT government allowed the criminal justice system to be overrun by the most zealous members of the #MeToo movement? What other ideological obsessions of the ACT government infect the justice system?

What we see being played out is prophesied by God in His Word, the Bible, lawlessness will abound because God and His values have been jettisoned by the world. God is allowing Satan and his minions to have one last seeming victory to refine His church before rescuing it with the Rapture and then pouring out His wrath upon an unrepentant world.
