Australian Christian Lobby has now joined and they have said they will handle the fundraising for Folau. Man I’m loving this... I am really loving this. It appears that society is throwing everything at Folau yet he doesn’t care, and stands by his faith. Good on you Izzy!

But they may run out of money to pay the victims of their pedo priests....

Do you know that the Catholic Church condemns those 'Priests'? They are monsters hiding behind the guide of a collar. They are not priests, they are a disgrace and do not stand for what the church stands for. The minority ruin it for the majority.

Haha. Yeah I'm sure they have never covered it up in the past mate. Thats why they have a squeaky clean history in Australia and the rest of the world. No problem here.

Like I said, minority ruin it for the majority. You think if it was the other way around there wouldn't be any whistle-blowers??

has there ever been a situation where the church got someone and then turned him into police?

usually they hide them by moving them somewhere else

No mention of Sarah Hanson Young's gofundme despite her 6 figure income.

I have no issues with anyone forming an argument that Folau is possibly greedy and shouldn't be asking for money given he's made so much (and I actually had this opinion when I first heard about his gofundme).

But at least be consistent if you're going to take issue with Folau, then I would expect you to have taken issue with all the other gofundme's that have been setup for already wealthy people.

*My faith is a rational faith, it's based on evidence..
Can I respectfully ask how you describe your faith? This seems pretty nonsensical to me because if you have evidence of the existence of something (for example), then it's no longer faith.

Too many people in this discussion simply stick to their ideological side and then mock the other side, which does nothing for anyone.

I'll be the first to state that the catholic church has done some horrific things in relation to dealing with priests who offended against small and defenceless children. If you can find any positives out of the whole situation, it's that (as far as I'm aware) all of the cases that have been in the media in the last few years, relate to offending which took place 20/30/40 years ago. I don't think there are any recent allegations (on any systemic level).

See - it's not that hard to think for yourself and be an individual. You don't have to just dig in your heels and blindly support a company/person/religion/social issue simply because you are on one side of politics.

Lyle Shelton hangs out with neo-nazis and calls them good men. Folau is well within his right to accept donations from Lyle Shelton's ACL, personally I wouldn't want to be associated with that kind of drop kick.

As the sayings go, "the company you keep"......

so criticising the church for covering up pedophilia is your example of individual thinking, putting aside politics and conceding?

I thought it was a universal thing tbh
