In an article by The Australian entitled 'Acting on Ouspoken Beliefs' from Oct. 15, 2008, she is quoted as saying, "I'm an atheist; I suppose you can call me a sort of libertarian anarchist. I regard religion with fear and suspicion. It's not enough to say that I don't believe in God. I actually regard the system as distressing: I am offended by some of the things said in the Bible and the Koran, and I refute them." [2]
