Malcolm Turnbull is a former Protestant who switched to become Roman Catholic, but holds various positions in opposition to the Bible, as well as his church.
Here is some background information about him:
Malcolm Turnbull was born on 24 October 1954 to Bruce Bligh Turnbull and Coral Magnolia Lansbury. His father was a hotel broker; his mother was a radio actor, writer and academic and a cousin of the British film and television actor Angela Lansbury. …
In 1978, Turnbull won a Rhodes Scholarship and attended Brasenose College, Oxford, where he studied for a Bachelor of Civil Law between 1978 and 1980, eventually graduating with Honours. While at Oxford, he worked for The Sunday Times as well as contributing to newspapers and magazines in the United States and Australia.
After graduating with honours from Oxford, Turnbull returned to Australia and began working as a barrister. …
In 1987, he established an investment banking firm, Whitlam Turnbull & Co Ltd, in partnership with Neville Wran (a former Labor Premier of New South Wales) and the former State Bank of New South Wales chief executive, Nicholas Whitlam (son of Gough Whitlam, a former Labor Prime Minister of Australia). ….
