OK, edwahu is right. All further discussion of the Folau topic should be taken to this thread in the Current Affairs board.

When you consider that was only about 70years ago we’ve come a long way but as Folua and his supporters have demonstrated we have so much further to go.

I know what you mean while not exactly agreeing because I’d have a wider category of problems caused.
While sticking to your tighter definition while the extremists cause the problems I’d say moderates empower them and give their views credibility.

Re: Israel Folau
One simple example demonstrated on this thread LP believing the majority agree with Folau simply because we are majority Christian, Folau would also believe the majority are on his side for that very reason. Don’t need to explicitly state support to empower a group, sharing a basic belief can do the job.

He’s challenging the termination, considering he had previously been warned it was a breach of his contract yet he intentionally did it again it should be pretty cut and dry.

Re: Israel Folau
Not really. Just because he was warned previously doesn't mean he breached his contract. That's pretty much what he's challenging, whether it actually breached it. it might be a last desperate attempt to get a pay out or maybe he hasn't technically breached the contract and the ARU is going to end up looking stupid. I really can't say what the outcome will be because I don't know the detailManbush wrote: ↑April 17, 2019, 2:48 pm He’s challenging the termination, considering he had previously been warned it was a breach of his contract yet he intentionally did it again it should be pretty cut and dry.

Folau is toxic for the ARU brand and it is a world cup year. The ARU will probably be prepared to take a financial hit in order to bury this as quickly as possible.

Just on the topic of the Folau tweet thats cuased the rucus. Why is it being reported that the problem is the reference to homosexuals? Does that mean the Drunks, Adulterers, Liars, Fornicators, Thieves, Atheists and Idolators are all fair game?

As for atheists won’t be concerned true it’s a hollow threat but it’s the sentiment behind it. Pentecostals believe in a literal fire and brimstone hell they believe people deserve to be tortured forever which is beyond disgusting, even Hitler wouldn’t deserve that. I just can’t fathom how people could love and worship a being they believe would do such a thing.
