The Holy Irritant

This blog offers an Australian perspective on faith, religion and spirituality. It invites you to join the joys and hope, the grief and anguish of a middle aged Aussie Catholic. The material reflects my interest in global as well as local issues.My perspective is probably more quirky than orthodox.

Tony Robertson: I acknowledge the land of the Wadawurrung people of the Kulin nations where I was born and pay respect to Elders, past, present and emerging. This region is known as Geelong in Victoria AU. I have been blessed with an extraordinary life rich in diversity, travel, politics, religion and the companionship and love of men and women. I have also had the most amazing opportunities to relate across generations as well as cultures. I have been involved as a volunteer member of several NGO boards of management and continue to maintain membership of professional and community organisations in welfare and education. Building on my experience, and deeply committed to principles of inclusion, equity and social justice. I believe I bring a highly creative and energetic presence to my work and social activities..
