What you NEED TO KNOW about Israel Folau

I don't agree with some of Israel Folau's opinions, but I will fight for his right to have and express them.

It was bad enough when Israel Folau lost his job for simply sharing his Christian beliefs online, but then when he tried to crowdfund his legal defence to fight for his career back - the outrage mob pounced again.

Ironically, the people claiming to campaign for tolerance have proven themselves to be the most intolerant of all. They bully everyone and anyone in their way.

The worst part is they'll use people like "Father" Rod Bower to lead the charge against Christians. Because apparently, he's a good Christian.

Let's get something straight: Whether you like it or not, Christianity is absolutely against homosexuality, it's literally in black and white throughout both the Old and New Testaments.

For example:
"If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination" (Leviticus 20:13)

I'm not sure how that can be any clearer.

So pretend Christians like Rod Bower who claim otherwise are just exposing themselves for the frauds they really are. Heck, I'm probably more Christian than that clown - and I'm a proud Jew.

Again, I don't personally share those views, these days, my Jewishness only goes as far as my love for bagels, but I firmly believe that we must protect every Australian's right to practice their faith and express their views.

GoFundme were gutless to pull Israel Folou's campaign. But guess what, the Australian Christian Lobyy just launched a new crowdfund and in only a few hours already raised 3/4 of a million dollars.

Just goes to show what we can achieve when we stand up to these bullies.

Isreal folauo is contradictory and I think his beliefs are contradictory to what he seems to portray and so Christians like Rod Bower are definitely mockery of the principles of the holy Bible and leading people astray with their cantankerous teachings is definitely bolocks

I bet they knew all about the MDL on their way to attack the Rally. That's why they wouldn't talk t you, in case you had found out about it and asked some awkward questions!

This issue is rather unfortunate if the Israelites are fond in that act, try to oppose someone right to exercise his religious faith. At times there is a friction between two believes which are with different ideology as others may think. But, in any way, I believe that we are fighting for our salvation under one umbrella that is God. We should exercise with much patience and see how amicably this issue can be solved

That was really interesting. I've been hearing a lot about facebook creating a cryptocurrency but no actual information on it - i.e. its purpose and what they are trying to achieve. So that video was helpful to get some understanding of it. At least a high level understanding.

Good luck getting a node. Shit, if you can pull that off I'm sure you will do really well for yourself
