Folau joins prayer circle before entering mediation with Rugby Australia

The former Wallabies fullback is seeking $14 million in compensation for what he claims was his unlawful dismissal for posting on social media that homosexuals were destined for hell and that legal recognition of transgender and intersex Australians was "evil".

Both Rugby Australia and Folau have indicted their intent to settle the dispute out of court, but three failed attempts to reach a settlement suggest the matter may drag on into the new year.Israel Folau with wife Maria. Folau will face Rugby Australia boss Raelene Castle, the executive who pulled the plug on his celebrated career, and any agreement will hinge on the issue of an apology and reinstatement.

The former star was greeted by a small group of supporters who held signs, including one saying "we love you Israel"."I understand that not everyone shares my faith and some find it difficult to reconcile with their own beliefs," Folau said in a video posted on his website before the meeting.

Why is this lunatic news-worthy?

How embarrassing for everyone involved

Folau 🤮

Bible instructs followers to obey the government. ... Romans 13:1-2 says: 'Obey the government, for God is the One who has put it there. There is no government anywhere that God has not placed in power. So those who refuse to obey the law of the land are refusing to obey God,

Public grandstanding won't change anything.

is this the god they were praying to ?

Grub

Go Izzy👍 Stuff Rugby Australia👎

I missed the public prayers from Folau about the bushfires. Too busy blaming anyone but the psychopath he worships, I guess.

I wonder which god he was praying to, it certainly wasn't the god of Christians

What was it like in the spring of 1899 ?

Forget the suffering in the world. God is focussing all his attention on this brat getting $14 million for not being able to throw a particular ball around a particular field with a particular group. His god has strange priorities

Why do you keep reporting on this shit!!!

enough !!!!

One big grifting scam

LGBT+ activist demands Israel Folau pay charity $100k, apologise for social media postsA gay rights campaigner has lodged a complaint over Israel Folau's online posts and a video that he says vilify homosexuals, and can incite contempt or hatred. This Folau Fool is bringing Christianity into disrepute. Mr Burns would far better spend his time reminding homosexual youth: 1. They are as loved as any other member of our community; 2. As there is no such thing as God, or 'His Wrath', Mr Falou's statements may be ignored. As a gay man myself I hope this BLT activist loses his money
