A brief description of the recording is: MP Georgina Beyer confronts Destiny Church followers on the steps of Parliament during the Enough is Enough march and rally. The content in the recording covers the 2000s decade. A brief summary of the recording is: On the 23rd of August 2004, MP Georgina Beyer delivered a powerful and confrontational speech to Destiny Church followers on the steps of the Parliament buildings in Wellington, New Zealand. This incident took place during the "Enough is Enough" march and rally organized by the church. The recording of this event captures a moment that epitomizes the tensions surrounding the debate on civil unions and LGBTQ+ rights within Aotearoa New Zealand during the 2000s. During the address, Beyer passionately challenged the congregation's views, questioning their Christian faith and its apparent contradiction with their actions. Beyer stands firm, facing the followers directly and questioning the basis of their prejudice and discrimination. Beyer urges them to be 'real Christians', emphasizing that they have witnessed greater Christian charity from others who did not share the views displayed by the church members that day. Beyer's speech raises essential points regarding equality, specifically highlighting the ironies of their movements, which aim to deny lawful New Zealand citizens - who happen to lead lives different from theirs - the same rights and privileges. Calling out the church's use of Christian doctrine as a veil, Beyer accuses them of instilling prejudice and discrimination in their children and calls out their attempt to control the lives of those unlike them, such as forbidding them to marry or have children. As a Member of Parliament, Beyer is in a unique position, representing not only New Zealanders but also serving as a figurehead within the LGBTQ+ community due to Beyer's own background. The speech is a testament to New Zealand's fair-mindedness and democracy, which allowed someone like Beyer to serve in public office. Beyer's defense of democracy is juxtaposed against the efforts of the Destiny Church to restrict the rights of certain New Zealanders, questioning their motives and highlighting the contradiction between these actions and the inclusive teachings of Christianity. The recording captures a moment of accountability where Beyer challenges the followers, asking if anyone besides Brian Tamaki, the leader of Destiny Church, is able to speak or have their own voice within the congregation. The full transcription of the recording begins: They there? We with the I'm happy to stare you in the eye. Why do you hate people like us? Be real Christians. I've known much more Christian charity from other people than what I've seen from you today. Well, I'm gonna come and look at each and every one of you. I don't mind at all. Your hatred is totally intolerable. Why do you deny law abiding New Zealand citizens who happen to have a difference the same rights as yourself? How dare you use the cloak of Christianity when you imparting to your Children prejudice discrimination toward people like me, gays and lesbians and other people who live differently. But abide the law and pay their taxes. Why do you do this to us? You're not going to win. You haven't. I have trust in New Zealanders that they will be fair minded as they always have been. Because the democracy that I live in made it possible for somebody like me to be here in this place, serving the privilege of service to people in New Zealand. And you would deny me rights. Why do you do that? Have you got another message other than Jesus loves you. What else was Jesus telling you? Can anybody else other than Brian Tamaki speak? Do you have your own voices? No, you don't. You don't want me to marry. You don't want me to have Children. You want to control other people's lives, so they're like yours. The full transcription of the recording ends.
