The fiery parliamentary debate over the resources super tax is mild compared with a holy row which erupted in the Casuarina Centrelink office when a woman began singing hymns and telling sinners that God is mightier even than mining magnates. Carrying a backpack big enough to conceal the Pilbara iron ore deposits , the religious woman announced her arrival by declaring that God helps us cope with any situation , perhaps a reference to the Euro collapse, mounting sovereign debt fears, talk of a double dip recession, a possible Chinese real estate slump, pocket picking banks, the weakening Aussie dollar - to name but a few earthly afflictions.
She is the self same lady who figured in an early Waiting For Buso tale who told a busload of people that Darwinites lack intestinal fortitude because they did not speak out about noisy war games which result in ear splitting jets roaring over the city day and night .
In her latest confrontation with the satanic forces in sweaty Darwin , she burbled on and on about God , sang hymns, paused for a swig from a bottle of mineral water, and tried to engage people sitting nearby in conversation. A young woman told her to shut her f***ing mouth , that she did not want to listen to her. She called for God’s campaigner to be cast out of the building into the wilderness. A nervous security officer intervened and asked the crusader to please keep quiet .
This caused the devout woman to invoke the wrath of God upon Darwin . Pointing to Heaven, the religious lady warned the unfortunate security man that she would have to report what was taking place in the public waiting room and that God would come down and “ destroy ” the woman who swore at her. On hearing this dire prognostication , several people moved away, not wanting to be incinerated by bolts of lightning randomly unleashed across the nation by the Rio- Tinto boardroom in a bid to smite the Ruddites and their head Treasury infidel advisor, Henry the Hittite, whose favourite weapon is the razor sharp jawbone of an ass which can cut through two sets of books in one hit.
