Joseph de Bruyn, during his keynote address at ACU's graduation, described abortion as the 'single biggest killer of human beings' and criticized same-sex marriage as contrary to societal norms.
He claimed that over 80,000 unborn children are killed by abortion each year in Australia, equating it to a human tragedy that exceeds the death toll of World War II.
De Bruyn expressed disappointment in fellow Catholics for succumbing to peer pressure, stating they fear repercussions in their professional lives for promoting Church teachings.
The walkout by students and staff during the speech was indicative of a broader disagreement with de Bruyn’s views, highlighting the tension surrounding issues of abortion and marriage equality.
