"Some like what we are doing, but with the help of people like David Lowe and the rest of the establishment which they proudly represent, all of that is changing."[

That's fantastic, it's working. Thanks for the kudos, David.
Just what 'establishment' is this? David sounds like a washed-up relic from the 60's counter-culture with revolutionary delusions. Except he never had cred then, and he doesn't have it now.
If it's the established church, why is he so desperate to retain his Quaker membership? Quakers are as much establishment as the Anglicans, the Uniting Church and the Baptists.
If it's established society, why doen't he and Cherry give up their Government pensions and shun the establishment for real instead of like some half-baked clanging cymbal? He's talking the talk, not walking the walk. And he says that Glenn couldn't hack the discipline? How about the discipline of shunning Government money, eh David? Or would that be just a bit too much to ask of a true believer living in a Jesus community like in the Bible? I don't believe they had pensions. Pensions come from workers who live in the evil establishment and pay taxes, like Jesus told them to. And it's because of the establishment that you both are entitled to them. How evil is that?
By the way, David is responding to what I'm saying, but hasn't responded to my question about Quaker money. Did a Quaker woman give him a substantial amount? What Quaker monies have gone into his Kenya outpost? Does he use that outpost to sell books to raise money for the JC's, not the Quakers?
And please stop calling me Grandma Lowe when I have no idea who David Lowe is, apart from his listing in the yearly meeting online records as an office-bearer from Queensland (been doing my homework!). Blackhat will suffice.
