Without the Guarantee which was demanded by the colonist, Australian
federation would of been stillborn!
The inclusion of the words humbly relying on the blessing of Almighty
God in the Australian Constitution exemplifies the countrys
religious, and specifically Christian, heritage. It can, at the very
least, be said that Judeo-Christian values were so embedded in
Australia so as to necessitate the recognition of God in the nations
founding document. When considered alongside the development of
colonial laws, the adoption of the English common-law tradition and
American system of federation, it is evident that the foundations of
the Australian nation, and its laws, have discernible
Christian-philosophical roots.
Radical secularists and historical revisionists, the Australian legal
system has a distinct Judeo-Christian tradition that has prevailed
till the present day. In these days of political correctness and moral
relativism, it is always important for us to be reminded of the
Judeo-Christian heritage of the Australian people, which still
permeates most of the laws and socio-political institutions of
Australia. To state this is not to be intolerant but to stress an
undeniable historical truth.
It has also been said that a people without historical memory can
easily be deceived by the power of foolish and deceitful philosophies.
Although undeniably diminished and rarely acknowledged, Christianity
has an enduring role in the Australian legal system. Despite the best
efforts of
101 The legislation allowed for funding of a wide range of programs
that comprise up to 10 per cent of federal expenditure, including
accommodation for asylum seekers offshore, the national
counterterrorism committee.
Both Quick and Garran participated in the Federation conventions in
the 1890s and were involved in the drafting of the Constitution.
Quick and Garran elucidated the purpose and effect of the nations
establishment clause:
By the establishment of religion is meant the erection and recognition
of a State Church, or the concession of special favours, titles, and
advantages to one church which are denied to others. It is not
intended to prohibit the Federal Government from recognizing religion
or religious worship.
The statement entirely dispels any possible claims that the Australian
Constitution established secularism by virtue of section 116. Rather,
Quick and Garran further elaborated upon the implications of section
116 to Christianity:
The Christian religion is
recognised as a part of the common law.
There is abundant authority for saying that Christianity is part and
parcel of the law of the land
Consequently the fundamental principles
of the Christian religion will continue to be respected, although not
enforced by Federal legislation. For example, the Federal Parliament
will have to provide for the administration of oaths in legal
proceedings, and there is nothing to prevent it from enabling an oath
to be taken, as at common law, on the sanctity of the Holy Gospel.
A people without historical memory can easily be deceived by the power
of foolish and deceitful philosophies.

Australia's parliament needs to obey our Constitutions,
the judiciary must apply the law!
Sir John Downer Kings Council, stated, when the Australian Constitution was finally adopted and on behalf of future generations,
Our Australian Commonwealth from its first stage will be a Christian Commonwealth.
