Besides being an Australian farmer, horticulturalist, local government Councillor, entrepreneur induced into the Tweed region’s Business Hall of Fame (2005), and a happily married family man, I have been a freelance writer (provocateur and heretic in the view of some) for over 50 years. My books and papers on matters relating to theology, ecology and biography have been published by a range of publishers, chief of whom was Verdict Publications whose widely circulating journal of theology I edited in its heyday for more than 10 years prior to my retirement. Any comments or inquiries addressed to me at . will be welcome, whether pro or con, provided they are expressed in the same irenic spirit in which I always try to write. Humans of goodwill can disagree without being disagreeable. The motto here is that great old saying of an ancient prophet, “Come, let us reason together.”
