It has become a pattern now that I will end up blogging about things or people that I don't know about and then having to research them. Another such person is Tony Abbott, who is apparently the leader of opposition for the Australian House of Representatives. Just recently, Abbott declared that his religious views would not touch his politcal decisions.
A while ago, he had made a few statements on abortion and homosexual but now is trying to take them back, or at least correct what he meant. He states that his words on abortion were poorly stated and that after meeting with some gays, his opinion on them has changed.
In my opinion, a good prime minister really shouldn't let his religious views cloud what is needed for the country. Hopefully, Abbott will keep to this promise if he does become prime minister. Other wise, I'd feel sorry for the Australians.
