A Christmas Message, 2024

Jesus said to love your Creator, to love other people, and to love yourself.

Matthew 22:37-40

Last Minute Christmas Presents

Anything, you no longer want, such as books, still in new condition, can be given away as Christmas presents.

Christmas Dinner

If you are Vegetarian, slices of cheese, or firm tofu, can replace animal flesh.

Jesus, would never had met a turkey, anyway.

Love Your Creator, Love Other People, Love Yourself

Love your Creator, and you will never be alone, you will never without a spiritual friend.

Love other people, with a friendship, where you not impose yourself on other people, nor let other people impose themselves on you.

Love yourself, so you do not become a used and abused doormat.

How Much Better, The World Be, If We All Did That?

How much happier, you would be, with a spiritual friendship with your Creator.

How much healthier, you would be, without junk-food, without a rapacious junk-food industry; and, without poverty caused by conflict.

How much wealthier, you would be, without debt, without a predatory military-industrial complex, which President Eisenhower warned about; and, without the destruction of man-made wars.

Peace Through Strength

The solution for wars, is Peace Through Strength.

It was President Trump's, Peace Through Strength, that kept relative peace in Ukraine.

It was President Trump’s, Abraham Accords, that were bringing peace to The Middle East.

It was President Biden’s, weakness, that led to wars in The Middle East.

It was President Biden’s, weakness, that led to Putin’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine.

Refugees

The solution for refugees, is not to start wars.

Warmongers

It was President Bush’s oil thieves, that led to oil-wars, in The Middle East, that led to millions of refugees.

It was President Bush’s, Vice President Cheney’s military-industrial complex, that led to for-profit wars, in The Middle East, that led to millions of refugees.

And, it was Hilary Clinton’s regime-change wars, that led to millions of refugees.

President Trump

Perhaps, incoming President Trump, who in his previous Presidency was the first US President, since President Carter, not to start a war, can bring peace to The Middle East and Ukraine.

Perhaps, incoming President Trump, can keep the warmongers out.

Poverty

Inflation is a flat-tax rate on the poor.

Perhaps, incoming President Trump, who in his previous Presidency had a cumulative inflation rate of 7%, compared to Biden’s more than 20%, can reduce inflation, bring about an increase in real wages, and so reduce poverty.

Tariffs

Selectively imposing tariffs, does not necessarily increase prices, since importers can import from other countries.

Selectively imposing tariffs, can also lead to more local production and jobs.

 How To Be A Happy LGBTIQA+ Christian

Jesus said, love your Creator, love other people, love yourself.

Matthew 22:27-40

Transgender People Naturally Exist

Being Transgender is not a delusional mental illness.

Some people really are Transgender.

A 52-yr-old feminine looking XY chromosome woman had two babies.

She breastfed her XY daughter for 1 year.

Without anyone, including both the mother and her adult daughter, knowing they were both XY.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2190741/

Transgenders have Female Brains In Male Bodies.

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0022395610003250 

Or, Male Brains in Female Bodies.

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0022395610001585 

Jesus

But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

Matthew 15:9

Jesus never said there is anything wrong with being LGBTIQA+

Neither should you.

Except for eunuchs and asexuals, whom Jesus mentioned favourably, Jesus never even mentioned LGBTIQA+ people.

Why should you?

The Lord’s Prayer

“And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.”

Matthew 6:12

Jesus condemned judgemental people.

For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:

But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Matthew 6:14-15

So why are so many people, who call themselves Christians, so judgemental about LGBTIQA+ people?

Jesus Said That The Old Testament Law No Longer Applies

If people, who call themselves Christians, try to use the Old Testament Law and Prophets, against you.

Jesus said.

The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.

And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail.

Luke 16:16-17

Jesus made, any Old Testament Black Letter Laws, including any laws against LGBTIQA+ people, redundant.

That is, Jesus replaced the Old Testament Black Letter Law with your Creator’s Law, which is Love your Creator, Love other people, Love yourself.

Where you are saved by Grace, through Jesus, and not by keeping the Commandments of Men.

Why did Jesus even bother coming, if you are still trying to be saved by keeping Old Testament Black Letter Law.

Instead of by your Creator’s Grace through Jesus.

“I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.”

Galatians, 2:21

Old Testament Black Letter Law, which even Paul wrote is impossible to keep.

So, if anyone tries to use Old Testament Black Letter Law against you, tell them that both Jesus and Paul said, that the Old Testament Black Letter Law is redundant.

Paul

Judgemental people, who call themselves Christians, who condemn LGBTIQA+ people, often quote Paul, and the Redundant Old Testament, but rarely Jesus.

Paul who wrote in his first letter to the Corinthians,

Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

1 Corinthians 6:9-10

Interesting that when people, quote this, that the thieves, adulterers, drunkards, and revilers, never seem to mind.

It is only the effeminate and homosexuals who object.

A Reply To Paul’s Opinion

If people, who call themselves Christians, try to use Paul’s, “neither ... effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, ... nor revilers, ... shall inherit the kingdom of God”, against you.

I have found the best reply is to ask, “Is revilers in there?”

In some translations it says, slanderers.

Then to ask, “And do poofter-bashers revile the effeminate and homosexuals?”

Followed by, “It looks like you will be going to hell with the poofters!”

Sometimes, they laugh.

Other-times, they look stunned.

Paul also wrote that you cannot be saved by keeping Old Testament Law.

And, even though Jesus regarded adultery as a major sin, Jesus saved a women from being stoned to death for adultery, and then merely told her not to do it again.

“Well then,” Jesus said, “I do not condemn you either. Go, but do not sin again.”

John 8:11

Of course, being Transgender is not a sin.

You are born Transgender.

So, I do not think Jesus would be any more judgemental, with effeminate and homosexuals, who he did not mention, than with adultery, which he did mention as a major sin.

My interpretation of Jesus, and Paul, is that Jesus does not mind if you are LGBTIQA+; and, if Paul does, then that is just Paul’s opinion.

And, if anyone, in The Bible, disagrees with Jesus, then Jesus is right and they are wrong.

Some of Paul’s opinions are very good, such as condemning circumcision, and the futility of trying to be saved by keeping Old Testament Black Letter Law, and not by your Creator’s Grace, through Jesus.

Others, not so good, such as men with long hair.

Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?

Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?

But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering.

1 Corinthians 11:13-15

It is obvious to me, if not to Paul, that long hair grows as naturally for men as for women.

And, there is no reason for women to wear veils anywhere.

Since if her hair is a covering, why does she need a veil as a covering?

Practicalities

Clothes and Toilets.

Whatever people might think, you cannot pick LGBTIQA+ people on looks.

Not, even other LGBTIQA+ people, can do that.

Except, of course Transgenders, who can be conspicuous by their clothes.

In the Western World, since the 1960’s, Unisex style dressing has become fashionable for both women and men.

So, male to female Transgenders, who present as male, can still wear women’s clothes in public, by wearing women's jeans and women's sweaters, in plain styles, so people just assume they are wearing men’s clothes.

Transgenders, can also use single user or unisex public toilets.

Are You Really Transgender

Most people, especially children, who think they are Transgender, are not really Transgender.

They are just children going through a phase.

Boys who enjoy stereotypical girl’s things.

Or, girls who enjoy stereotypical boy’s things.

And, so should just get on with their lives, just the way they are.

Not, become life-time victims of the Medical-Industrial Complex.

Not, have their breasts or penises removed.

And, then a few years later, want them back!

Transgenders Can Be Better Off Without Hormones And Surgery

Enjoying the best of both worlds.

When your brain does not match your body, the Medical-Industrial Complex wants to change your body; the anti-trans activists want to change your brain.

Whereas, you are better off by keeping your body, and your brain, the way they both are.

The way your Creator created you.

Getting the best of both worlds.

A woman, in a man’s body, enjoying being a woman, in private, without ever getting PMS or going through years of menopause.

While getting the respect a man gets in public.

A man, in a woman’s body, who, in the Western World, can do anything a man, in man’s body, can do anyway.

Be happy, with the way your Creator created you.

Maybe, you were created Transgender, to be a bridge of understanding between women and men, to make life better for everyone.

7 Steps To Become A Happy LGBTIQA+ Christian

1: First of all, sort out in your own mind, that there is nothing wrong with being LGBTIQA+, and so get over any guilt, shame, or embarrassment.

2: Jesus never said there was anything wrong with being LGBTIQA+

So, why should you, or anyone else.

3: Paul condemned, effeminate and homosexuals, along with thieves, revilers, and drunkards.

But, that is only Paul’s opinion.

And, since Jesus was accused of being a drunkard himself; and, all Jesus said to an adulteress was, don’t do it again, Jesus is not likely to be too judgemental with you.

You could also point out, that if they revile you, they will end up in hell with you!

4: Be considerate of other people.

Live and let live.

If you are a male to female Transgender, who looks like a man, do not gatecrash women’s spaces and women's sports.

Be considerate.

Use unisex or single user toilets.

Compete in men’s or mixed sporting events.

Do not compete in women’s only events, where your male body gives you an unfair advantage.

5: Get on with your life.

That’s it.

Do not let being LGBTIQA+ define you.

Do not let other people define you.

Accept that not everyone is going to agree with you.

After all, do you agree with everyone else?

Accept that not everyone is going to like you.

After all, do you like everyone else?

Do not waste your time, trying to change yourself, to please people, who do not like you, anyway.

Find people who do.

Be yourself,

Enjoy!

Contradictions In The Quran Prove Muhammad Is Not The Prophet

The Qur'an I have quoted from was printed, by the King Fahd Complex for the Printing of the Holy Qur'an, Madinah, K.S.A,as a gift from the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Fahd of Saudi Arabia.

Is The Qur'an From Men Or Allah?

"Do they not then consider the Qur'an carefully? Had it been from other than Allah, they would have surely found therein many a contradiction."

Surah 4:82

And: "Verily, We, it is We Who have sent down the Dhikr (i.e. The Qur'an) and surely, We will guard it (from corruption)."

Surah 15:9

Contradictions In The Qur'an Are Called Abrogations

"Whatever a Verse (revelation) do We abrogate or cause to be forgotten, We bring a better one or similar to it. Know you not that Allah is able to do all things?"

Surah 2:106

Muhammad Admitted He Changed Verses In The Qur'an

"And when We change a Verse (of the Qur'an) in place of another – and Allah knows best what He sends down – they say: "You (O Muhammad) are but a Muftari! (forger, liar)" Nay, but most of them know not."

"Say (O Muhammad) Gabriel has brought it down from your Lord with truth, that it may firm and strengthen those who believe, and as a guidance and glad tidings to those who have submitted."

"And indeed We know that they (polytheists and pagans) say: "It is only a human being who teaches him (Muhammad)". The tongue they refer to is foreign while this (the Qur'an) is a clear Arabic tongue."

Surahs 16:101-103

Examples Of Contradictions In The Qur'an

Will Jews And Christians Go To Heaven?

Yes

"Verily! Those who believe and those who are Jews and Christians, and Sabians, whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day and does righteous good deeds shall have their reward with their Lord, on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve."

Surah 2:62

"Surely, those who believe and those who are the Jews and the Sabians and the Christians, – whosoever believed in Allah and the Last Day, and worked righteousness, on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve."

Surah 5:69

No

"And whoever seeks a religion other than Islam, it will never be accepted of him, and in the Hereafter he will be one of the losers."

Surah 3:85

"Verily, those who disbelieve (in the religion of Islam, the Qur'an and the Prophet Muhammad) from among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) and Al-Mushrikun will abide in the fire of hell. They are the worst of creatures."

Surah 98:6

Fair Preaching

"Invite to the Way of your Lord with wisdom and fair preaching, and argue with them in a way which is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided."

"And if you punish (your enemy), then punish them with the like of that with which you were afflicted. But if you endure patiently, verily, it is better for the patient."

Surahs 16:125-126

"Many of the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) wish that if they could turn you away as disbelievers after you have believed, out of envy from their ownselves, even after the truth (that Muhammad is Allah's Messenger) has become manifest unto them. But forgive and overlook, till Allah brings His Command. Verily, Allah is able to do all things."

Surah 2:109

Contradicted By

"Fight against those who (1) believe not in Allah, (2) nor in the Last Day, (3) nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad), (4) and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (i.e. Islam) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until the pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued."

Surah 9:29

Muhammad Even Tells God What To Do!

"And the Jews say: Uzair (Ezra) is the son of Allah, and the Christians say: Messiah is the son of Allah. That is their saying with their mouths, resembling the saying of those who disbelieved aforetime. Allah's Curse be on them, how they are deluded away from the truth!"

Surah 9:30

No, If God Wants A Son, God Gets A Son!

"And they (Jews, Christians and pagans) say Allah has begotten a son (children or offspring). Glory be to him (Exalted be He above all they associate with Him). Nay, to Him belongs all that is in the heavens and on earth, and all surrender with obedience (in worship) to Him."

Surah 2:116

“The Originator of the heavens and the earth. When he decrees a matter he only says to it: "Be!" – and it is.”

Surah 2:117

It Is Not For Muhammad, A Man, To Tell God What To Do

“The Originator of the heavens and the earth. When he decrees a matter he only says to it: "Be!" – and it is.”

Surah 2:117

It Is Not For A Sinner To Tell God What To Do

So know, (O Muhammad that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah), and ask forgiveness for your sin and also for (the sin of) believing men and believing women. And Allah knows well your moving about, and your place of rest (in your homes).

Surah 47:19

The Quran

The Quran I quoted from was printed, by the King Fahd Complex for the Printing of the Holy Quran, Madinah, K.S.A, as a gift from the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Fahd of Saudi Arabia.

Gambling – The High Price Of Hope

Download and Search for Gambling on PDF for more information: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QNpZAG1Y_L54NmSOpZTaUjqS9xYRL1bD/view 

Every year people, lose billions of dollars, and waste millions of hours, gambling.

When they could be doing something productive.

Clubs and casinos set the odds, the venue, the conditions, in their favour and not yours, so they win and you lose.

WHEN NOT TO GAMBLE

When the odds are not in your favour.

With negative sum games.

And, when you use poor money management, are conflicted, alcohol or other drug affected, upset, worried, depressed, lonely, self-destructive or masochistic, you can lose far more.

Perhaps, everything you have.

Even, go into debt as well.

Even, with positive sum games.

When the odds are in your favour.

You can still lose by poor money management.

WINNING GAMBLERS

To be a winning gambler you need to know 4 things.

1: When you are being deceived or cheated.

2: When the odds are in your favour.

3: Money management.

4: Yourself.

Or, alternatively, only gamble against people who you do win against – people worse than you.

GAMBLING GAMES

NO SKILL, NEGATIVE SUM GAMES

Long term you cannot win, at no skill negative sum games, so do not waste your time and money trying.

If you really must then buy a weekly lottery ticket.

That way you will not lose much money or time and have a very, very, very small chance of winning something worthwhile.

If the lottery is for a good cause then you can consider it as a non tax-deductible charity donation.

Unfortunately, many lotteries are run by commercial businesses.

And, many charities spend most of the donations, on themselves.

NEGATIVE SUM GAMES OF SKILL

These games can be a trap.

You have to have enough skill to overcome the disadvantage.

And, you can waste a lot of time and money on trying to do this, that would be better put into positive sum games.

NO SKILL, POSITIVE SUM GAMES

The odds are in your favour.

There is no skill.

It is all a matter of good money management.

POSITIVE SUM GAMES OF SKILL

The odds are in your favour so you can win simply by good money management.

If you have more skill than your opponents you can use your skill too.

WHY DO PEOPLE LOSE AT POSITIVE SUM GAMES?

They turn a positive sum game, into a negative sum game, by poor money management.

MONEY MANAGEMENT

THE MATHEMATICS OF GAMBLING

If you had odds of 9/2, that is a dividend of $5.50 for $1, about a 20% chance of winning you would have a 10% advantage.

If you had a bank of $1000, to bet with, what proportion of your bank should you bet? 

Bet% = (p – q/odds)x100

 = (0.2 – 0.8/4.5)x100

 = 2.2%

So your first bet should be $22.

OVER-BETTING

If you had $1000 to bet with would you only bet $22?

Or, would you bet more?

And, so through poor money management, eventually lose all of your $1000 even though you had a positive sum game?

BLACK JACK

Some people think that they can win at blackjack by card counting.

In practice, almost all card counters lose their money.

The few who do win significant amounts of money are banned from the casinos.

And, all that time they spent on developing a skill, that is of no use anywhere else, is wasted.

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS MONEY YOU CAN AFFORD TO LOSE

Next time you get the urge to gamble – think of how much you can afford to lose – and then buy yourself a present that you really want and will use.

And, whenever you use it, think how much better it is to have bought this, than to have lost your money gambling.

IF YOU ARE TRULY ADDICTED – MASOCHISM AND SELF-HARM

Gambling can be every bit as addictive and destructive to yourself, your family, and friends as any other addiction.

If the rational approach, of proving mathematically that you will lose your money, will not stop you, then think – why do you want to be so self-destructive – to self-harm.

Then find out why.

Do not punish yourself by losing your money by gambling.

Buy yourself, or someone you like, a nice present.

WHAT ARE YOU HIDING FROM?

If you want to switch off your brain, so that you do not feel the pain of past traumas or present loneliness, then get a useful interest in life.

Gambling will not solve the problems in your life, or in yourself, that you are hiding from.

Gambling can only add financial problems to the problems you already have.

ALTERNATIVES

CARDS

If you are addicted to gambling with cards then play for the skill, company, mental exercise, and not for the money.

IF YOU KNOW A GAMBLER

Never give them or loan them any money.

You could refer them to a gamblers helpline.

If their self-destructive gambling has left them financially desperate then you could give them food.

But, never give them cash.

And, make sure that they cannot steal any of your money.

IF YOUR PARTNER, PARENTS, OR CHILDREN, ARE GAMBLERS

Keep all your finances in separate accounts in your name only.

IF YOU AND YOUR PARTNER ARE BOTH GAMBLERS

You could gamble against each other – then whichever one of you wins can pay the bills.

Meta-analyses indicated that people who consumed the most dairy products, had:

1: 13% lower overall death rates;

2: 8% less IHD [ischaemic heart disease];

3: 21% fewer strokes;

4: 15% less diabetes;

than people who consume the least:

Water-Efficient Cow’s Milk

The average Water Footprint per litre , of Cow’s milk, is Blue 863. Green 86. Grey 72, rounded to a Total of 1020 litres of water.

https://www.waterfootprint.org/resources/Report-48-WaterFootprint-AnimalProducts-Vol1.pdf [Table 6]

Similar to Fruit Juices, of less nutritional value, such as:

1018 litres per litre of Orange Juice;

1141 litres per litre of Apple Juice;

1273 litres per litre of Pineapple Juice;

3763 litres of water per litre of Soy Drink.

Methane Efficient Cow's Milk

The Biogenic Carbon Cycle. Carbon, Cattle breathe and belch out, comes from the plants they eat.

To grow back again, these plants take this carbon back out of the atmosphere, in a continuous recycling, with no net increase. https://clear.ucdavis.edu/explainers/biogenic-carbon-cycle-and-cattle

CSIRO Scientists have found Australian red seaweeds (Asparagopsis taxiformis and A. armata) virtually eliminate methane emissions from cattle and sheep, when fed as a dietary additive at 1% of their diet by dry weight.

https://blog.csiro.au/feeding-seaweed-to-cows-our-livestock-methane-research-lights-up/

While, rice produces 11% of CH4 emissions.

“Flooded rice paddy soils are a predominant source of methane (CH4) emissions, accounting for approximately 11% of global emissions.”

86% Of Livestock Feed Is Not Suitable For Human Consumption

A study by FAO, found livestock rely primarily on forages, crop residues and by-products that are not edible to humans.

And, “cattle need only 0.6 kg of protein from human edible feed to produce 1 kg of protein in milk and meat”.

Cows Do Not Have To Get Pregnant To Produce Milk

Since at least 1973, Cows and Goats, just like Women, who breast-feed their adopted Babies, do not need to get pregnant to lactate.

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0022030273852439

Hormonally Induced Lactation

Lactation in Cows, can be induced, by a 7 day course of 17β-estradiol and progesterone.

Compared to 20 years, almost every day, on the contraceptive pill for Women.

Milking can begin 2 to 3 weeks later.

Sex-Sorting Eggs Before Incubation To Prevent Male Chicks

The sex of a bird is determined by the egg – not by the sperm.

So sex-sorted semen cannot be used to prevent male Chicks.

Fertilised eggs can be sex-sorted by using infra-red photography and so reducing the hatching and killing of male Chicks.

This was done experimentally, in 2013, and was, “89 per cent accurate for fertilization and 76 per cent accurate for sex”; “images collected prior to 30 hours of incubation were suitable for use.”

Land And Water-Efficient, Sustainable, Wool And Eggs

With Sheep and Poultry, free-ranging in orchards, no extra land, no extra green-water, and very little extra blue-water, is needed.

Total Water Footprint, could be reduced by 90%.

Humane Veganic Not Organic

Humanely-produced manure, as Veganic-Fertiliser, instead of manure from factory-farms and feed-lots, as Organic-Fertiliser.

URGENT: Help Save Bambi!

Parks Victoria Plans To Shoot Deer In Dandenong Ranges.

Parks Victoria is planning to shoot Deer, in the outer suburbs of Melbourne, Australia, in the Dandenong Ranges Park.

Sign near top of 1000 Steps, says going to shoot Deer.

Monday 13 May 2024 to Friday 17 May 2024

Is There Anything You Can Do?

Parks Victoria and CSIRO should do more research into cheap, effective, easily administered, contraceptives.

I Have Been Emailing Members Of Parliament With The Following Message.

Could you help save the Deer in Dandenong Ranges Park?

Parks Victoria is planning to shoot Deer, in the outer suburbs of Melbourne, in the Dandenong Ranges Park.

Sign near top of 1000 Steps, says going to shoot Deer.

13 May 2024 to 17 May 2024

6 pm to 6 am

info@parks.vic.gov.au

Some local people told me this has been done before.

Which means Parks Victoria, really should make a plan to use humane methods, to keep the Deer population at a beneficial level.

Briefly

I think this shooting of Deer should be cancelled, and Deer numbers should be managed humanely, because:

1: The Deer are beneficial in reducing fire hazards.

2: Wildlife numbers, wallabies, echidnas, birds, have not been affected by the Deer.

3: The Deer eat weeds such as ivy.

4: Safety of people in adjoining properties.

5: Safety of people walking at night, who do not see the signs.

6: Parks Victoria should instigate a long-term plan, to keep the Deer population at a beneficial level, humanely.

More Detail

1: The Deer are beneficial in reducing fire hazards.

1n 1997, 3 people died and 41 houses burned down, because of fires that spread from this park.

Native animals are also killed, maimed, and made homeless, in these fires.

Because of the Deer, the long dry grass that adjoined private properties, is now shorter and greener.

The wallabies, and other native animals, were never able to do this.

Burn-offs, pollute the atmosphere; increase Green House Gases; leave bare ground that can be eroded by wind and rain as well as opened to weed invasion; and, cost taxpayers’ money.

Some parks, especially in the US, pay to use goats to reduce fire-hazards.

Here, the Deer are doing it, for free.

2: The Deer eat weeds such as ivy.

Some goat herders say, introduced animals prefer to eat the introduced plants over native plants that native animals eat.

The Deer do less destruction to trees than wallabies.

Wallabies with their hands, pull down, defoliate, and break branches.

Whereas, Deer can only put up their heads and browse.

3: Wildlife numbers, wallabies, echidnas, birds, have not been affected by the Deer.

I see just as many wallabies, echidnas, birds, and other native animals, now as I ever did.

4: Safety of people in adjoining properties.

This is a bushland residential area.

Many houses, on large lots without fences, adjoin the park.

Shooters could stray into people’s backyards.

Stray shots could hit people.

No shooter is 100% accurate.

5: Safety of people walking at night, who do not see the signs.

I often see people walking at night.

Sometimes, because their walk took longer than expected.

6: Parks Victoria should instigate a long-term plan, to keep the Deer population at a beneficial level, humanely.

Parks Victoria and CSIRO could also do more research into cheap, effective, easily administered, contraceptives.

16 December 2024 Update

Now that they have murdered all the Deer, who kept the long dry grass beautifully mown, into short green grass, the Park is becoming an overgrown fire hazard again!

In January 1997, three people died, and 41 houses burned down, because of a fire that started in this Park.
