So... why does he need $3m by the way?? I’ve seen various solicitors via twitter say they believe maximum his fees would be around $300k. Is he trying to get a top up for what he would have earned in the remainder of his contract? Seems a bit rich excuse the pun


This.
It’s an unfair dismissal case pretty simple really. The 3mill requested is an indication of how greedy and docile he is. Israels biggest and most pressing problem at this stage is that he’s as dumb as dogshit but thinks he’s incredibly intelligent. Due to his profile and beliefs this makes him a dangerous person. Along the lines of George w

Pretty much. Nearly everything I hear from him sounds like brainwashed nonsense.

The reality to me is I think he is thinking he is shot, but wants to take a stand for religious bigotry rights, and sees that it’s ok for the average punter to top his salary up so all in all he doesn’t lose one iota.

A "new earth"? Gee, haven't heard that one before. You might want to read your Bible again; it doesn't mention any new earth.

Hope you don't represent the intelligent atheists.

Isaiah 65:17 "For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; And the former things will not be remembered or come to mind.


Revelation 21:1Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth passed away, and there is no longer any sea.

Isaiah 66:22
"For just as the new heavens and the new earth Which I make will endure before Me," declares the LORD, "So your offspring and your name will endure.


According to the Bible, there's only room for 144,000 in Heaven, all from the tribes of Israel.

AH NO. Please do some research you numpty. You make this so easy.

Revelation 7:9-10
9 After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. 10 And they cried out in a loud voice: “Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne,and to the Lamb.”


Even if you were a Jew, it's fair to say that you'd be shit out of luck as it would have put up the No Vacancy sign a long time ago.

Your only shit out of luck if you as big a numpty as you! Because your wrong!

But you know, you could always hope that the Big Guy will take pity & whack up a few tents in His backyard. Who knows?

Christians know. Those who actually study theology and have great faith.

You, well you don't know. Its clear you make absolute rubbish up and pretend to believe it.

I also enjoyed this tweet-


You would've enjoyed the next one, where he used the word 'eatasses' to describe rugby players who apparently f**k over Island rugby.

Because you know, eating arse is associated with homosexual men, which is such an abhorrent thing to be.

Very mentally unwell, that bloke.

I stand corrected on 'new earth'.

No, I am not an Atheist.

Revelation 7:3 "Do not harm the land or the sea or the trees until we put a seal on the foreheads of the servants of our God. 4. Then I heard the number of those who were sealed: 144,000 from all the tribes of Israel." It then goes on to name 12,000 from each tribe of Israel.

Those who actually study approved works written by apologists.
Faith in a religious context means willful ignorance.
Faith requires one to believe the Divine to be an angry, jealous, vain, incompetent, vengeful psychopathic deity.

If you are unable to comprehend that the above attributes contradicts the belief that our Creator is perfect, beyond error, then you clearly don't have a clue.

None will be lost for eternity. ALL will be 'saved' eventually.

The large dinosaurs were wiped out by a meteor that plunged the world into darkness (The OT described this as a Great Flood. You know, the one where the polar bears swam to the Middle East, sloths from S.America etc etc & where all species regenerated from one pair when we know that that isn't possible? )
Smaller dinosaurs survived such as crocodiles & some some species evolved into lizards & birds.

Not sure what you mean by "macroevolution"? Oh, is that where God clicks his fingers & voila! a new species appears?

Parts of the Bible & doctrine was taken from Pagan sources. Easter was a Pagan celebration as was Christmas.
The drinking of blood & eating of flesh is Pagan. No self respecting Jew would consider such a thing much less a Rabbi.
A Messiah born to a 'virgin' (sure she was) from humble beginnings was a Pagan theme that pre-existed Jesus.
The caricature of the Devil himself was based on the Pagan demi-God of Fertility, Pan, from his horns, goatee, tail to his cloven feet.
Most Christians break the Commandment to keep the Sabbath holy by going to church on the Pagan day of worship, SUNday. (All hail Mithras! lol)

The OT prophets didn't get anything right. They're still waiting for a bloke called Manny.

I could go on but as this is a footy forum & the thread is about Izzy, I'll leave it at that.
Folou should not have signed the terms of agreement if they conflicted with his beliefs.
Despite the fact that I disagree, I respect someone who stands up for what they believe.
A person should be able to say what they like in a church or on social media. Personally I wouldn't read his posts because I'm not a Christian.
Snowflakes just love going out of their way to find something to be offended by.

The crux of the matter is that the RUs terms of agreement are discriminatory against Christians & their beliefs. No-ones bothered to mention that nice piece of politically correct hypocrisy.

Izzy can come & play for the Tigers for $100k a year. As money is the root of all evil, he should be happy with that, lol.

I wish you would not keep sucking me back into your bullshit story of things but here we go.

No disagreement a catastrophic event happened and caused an extinction event. Not just the OT but every single culture on earth relates back to a flood event.

Though dinosaurs are not nearly as old as you have been lead to believe. Dinosaur bones have been excavated at ground levels that they shouldn't be at and mixed in with bones of rather newer animals.


Not sure what you mean by "macroevolution"? Oh, is that where God clicks his fingers & voila! a new species appears?

Macroevolution - refers to smaller evolutionary changes of allele frequencies within a species or population. You have no proof of this. ZERO. SO I would suggest you believe in a fairy tale.

Parts of the Bible & doctrine was taken from Pagan sources. Easter was a Pagan celebration as was Christmas.

FALSE - Catholicism and its doctrines through the council of Nicea took on pagan traditions, not the bible.

  • Easter, for example, was taken from Eygpt.
  • The people suffering from devasting droughts and plagues would pray to the fallen angel Esther, also know as ishtar, eostre, Ostara, and Austra.
  • In return for killing their children and dipping eggs in the childrens blood and offering them to her she would grant fertile crops etc.
  • Now you know where easter eggs come from.
  • The chocolate bunnies represent the fertility goddess. Thats why playboy has bunnies too! represents fertility!

You clearly need to do some study on this subject and not just take your gained knowledge and understanding through debunked productions like zeitgeist.

Christmas the bible actually forbids

Jeremiah 10:3-5 - 3 For the customs of the people are vain: for one cuts a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the ax. 4 They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not. 5 They are upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also is it in them to do good.


The drinking of blood & eating of flesh is Pagan. No self respecting Jew would consider such a thing much less a Rabbi.

Learn to understand the metaphoric and parable in the bible.

A Messiah born to a 'virgin' (sure she was) from humble beginnings was a Pagan theme that pre-existed Jesus.

Just watch to realise how wrong you are yet again.


The caricature of the Devil himself was based on the Pagan demi-God of Fertility, Pan, from his horns, goatee, tail to his cloven feet.

Please please, please. For F@ck sake know what your talking about before quoting any crap. First names for the Devil are Helel ben Shachar and Nachash. Both well and truly predate anything you know. Research and come back to me.

Most Christians break the Commandment to keep the Sabbath holy by going to church on the Pagan day of worship, SUNday. (All hail Mithras! lol)

Mithras?? NO - SATURN?? YES

No worries, all good.

You're in complicated territory here now. Because your confusing meanings of verses. So let me clear this up for you in 10 mins from someone with a PHD of the subject.


Those who actually study approved works written by apologists.
Faith in a religious context means willful ignorance.

Why do you equate faith with religion? Who chooses to be ignorant. The God of the bible demands his people test everything to know its from him.

1John 4:1 - Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.


Faith requires one to believe the Divine to be an angry, jealous, vain, incompetent, vengeful psychopathic deity.

Now your heading into Gnostic territory. God clarifies why he is a jealous God. He hates sin, he hates destruction, he hates losing his creation. You are not forced by God to love him. You are not forced to want to go to heaven. Everyone who goes to hell rather be there than with God

Where do you get the psychopathic deity from? That I am intrigued by.

Please clarify this statement. Give me some context to measure it against here

That is counter-biblical. No scripture based.

John 6:39 And this is the will of God, that I should not lose even one of all those he has given me, but that I should raise them up at the last day.

Buying a nice tv and donating to a brainwashed multi millionaire to help out his unfair dismissal case are two slightly different things though!
Not really... considering there are people/children need the money more... have a look at the GoFundMe page.

Pretty much this. I've never been sacked nor needed a lawyer for an unfair dismissal case, but I can't imagine it would cost 3 million dollars. For someone who was on his pay packet it is ridiculous that he is coming out hat in hand asking for such a ridiculous sum of money to fight this. The whole thing reeks of a cash grab under the guise of religion.

The whole thing is pretty ridiculous, Folau agreed to not post any more anti-gay posts on social media and did it anyway. He was either trying to get himself fired or he's an absolute moron, them more I think about it the more I think it is the former.

Comedian and campaigner Magda Szubanski has launched a rival GoFundMe site called “For Love” in response to the Israel Folau donation saga.

Speaking on The Project on Tuesday evening, Szubanski said she hopes to raise $500,000 for charity through the multi-faith initiative.

“Some friends and I had a feeling — I can’t believe I’m up here talking about this stuff again. I would love to leave this subject behind,” Szubanksi said.

“We would like to have a response to Israel Folau that’s not combative. It’s an interfaith group, it’s comprised of Catholics, Muslims, Jews, aethiests and LGBTQI people and we’ve started a GoFundMe called “For Love”.

“We hope to raise $500,000, 10 per cent of which will go to Twenty10 which is an organisation I’m the patron of. It works a lot with kids often from diverse backgrounds who are kicked out of home because of, you know, basically because of there sexuality.”

According to Magda being a Atheist is a religion now she called it a "interfaith"
