What a dreadful person Folau is, compared with the followers of Islam, who merely call for the death of homosexuals, and quite often do kill them. Much kinder than some awful Christian who goes as far as upsetting the Qantas CEO.

We've always had religious freedom here in Australia!

Nobody has ever been prevented from attending any religious ceremony or celebration inside any building dedicated for that purpose!

Religious freedom has never ever included a right to harangue and harass in the public square! Nor proselytize inside public schools that have fatuously allowed recruiting chaplains free rein over other folk's kids!

And ought to be ended ASAP and replaced with genuine led by example Christian charity and championed genuine social justice! As exampled by the master!i

What Would be the outcome if a group of activists dressed up in white KKK costumes, were to march up and down in silent protest outside Mr Folau's church every fine Sunday morning carrying placards that read, "Judge ye not lest ye be judged in turn and found seriously wanting"?

And claimed by the silent marchers as peaceful protest conducted as a (boot on the other foot) religious freedom? And no more offensive in turn, than the latest Folau religious rant!

Well?

For consistency your remarks should apply also to Gaia worshippers, particularly those who harangue and harass voters near polling booths to vote for climate change action.

Perhaps a Real Question should be do any of your "religious" beliefs have any grounding in The Living Divine Reality? And are they based on a fully comprehensive investigation and understanding of the totality of the psycho-psycho-physical structures of the human body mind complex?

Are any of your "religious" beliefs based on first hand direct evidence and/or participation in what you profess to believe. For example did you participate in the life, and teaching demonstration of Saint Jesus of Galilee, or meet Saint Jesus of Galilee up close and personal in a living-breathing-feeling human form?

And what if all of your childish even infantile "religious" beliefs are based on the entirely mythological/legendary nonsense associated with the life and presumed "resurrection" of Saint Jesus of Galilee (who of course was never ever in any sense a Christian)

In the storm-in-a-teacup case of Folau has he or anyone else ever had any direct experience of "sinners" of any persuasion "burning in hell". Or of self-righteous "true believers" going to "heaven" when they die.

Obviously not!

So regardless of the legalities of Folau's case with the Rugby administration his naive "religious" beliefs should quite rightly be lampooned.

A group of three Sunni Moslems have recently been convicted of attempting to burn down a mosque belonging to the Shiite faith.
