Catch the Fire Ministries is always good for a chuckle if one visits this religious group's website.

Last week the group was promoting its Sunday 17 October gathering on Mt. Ainslie in Canberra; which was held to exorcise Beelzebub and those pesky imps, whose evil spells are causing members of parliament to vote in a manner not approved of by certain right-wing Christians and bringing in their wake bushfires or other disasters.

The Australian Sex Party climbed the mountain in response to this threat to the well-being of Australian politicians and held a counter-demonstration, which according to unconfirmed Twitter reports drew a larger crowd.

A demonstration of religious-political warfare in action if, former Family First candidate and running mate of Steve Fielding, Pastor Nalliah's language is any indication.

Wonder who had the bigger sausage sizzle?
