Dear Is Mise,

You wrote;

"No, we didn't, what was held was a postal opinion poll"

Lol.

Okay mate, what made this an opinion poll? The fact it was postal? Well that can't be it unless you say all those who send their vote in via the post for any election were not casting a true vote rather just sending in their opinion.

Or was it because it was optional? Well that can't be it either because that would deem Trump didn't win an election as voting is not compulsory in the US.

So you must have some unique insight into how this was only and opinion poll. Care to share it with he rest of us?

Hasbeen: "Here we have a professional game, played mostly by a bunch of thugs, with an organising group who think they are god."

Some pretty foul and seedy things happen in the rugby world but these are often tolerated or ignored by the governing body.

However, apparently expressing traditionalist Christian views - albeit crudely and provocatively - is crossing the line!

Just because the language used might have been in 'poor taste'; just because most of us would not say the same things - publicly at least - does not mean that this bloke hasn't got the right to air his opinion. There were no threats, no laws broken - just the pathetic, gutless and PC knee-jerking of a sporting organisation that has no more right to make judgements than anyone else. They employ him to play rugby, and apparently he does a good job of that. And, who judges what us or isn't 'poor taste'? Most people's taste is all in their mouth.

At least this man has the courage to air his views in what he would be well aware is a society hostile to his opinions. The very fact that he is a Christian puts him behind the eight ball in post-Christian Australia.

and so now Foxy thinks Israel was warning people to escape hell so he would be sacked from the world cup because the Aussies were not going to win anyway. You are so good at judging people's motives aren't you Foxy?

runner,

Unlike you. I try not to judge anyone.
I merely provide information and let people
make up their own minds.

You should try it.
