Israel Folau has again doubled down on his anti-homosexual views in yet another shocking social media post that has him headed for a showdown with Rugby Australia.

The Wallaby posted a message on his Instagram account that said “hell awaits” “drunks, homosexuals, adulterers, liars, fornicators, thieves, atheists and idolators” — adding they should “repent”.

In April 2018, Rugby Australia decided not to sanction Folau after he issued a series of tweets containing anti-homosexual messages or imagery. With the World Cup commencing in September in Japan there is plenty of time between now and then for Rugby Australia - Folau could also land in trouble with his Super Rugby side the NSW Waratahs, now as their season is in full swing.

mdavisqlder Something’s gone badly wrong here 😰

Welcome to Communist China, have an opinion different to the central committee and you will be punished or jailed

Well, at least we know of ONE Footbawler who WON'T be dressing up as Dr Frankenfurter at any Club Fancy Dress

He needs a few more head knocks

Poor guy. Indoctrinated by a church of hate and too limited in his capacity to understand that if his god really exists, he'll end up being punished for sowing hatred himself. What a dipstick excuse of a human.

Everyone has the right to their opinion, and these days, to share their opinions on sm. Imo, most of the opinions posted, are bs......

Spot on mate Spot on Remember SODOM AND GOMORRAH ALL those who voted for this FILTH helped DEFILE THIS LAND.

Misleading

What’s so shocking

ARU ...response will be ' disappointed - don't share his views- he's entitled to his opinion '. etc ec etc. Their entire World Cup Campaign hinges on this man.

Wonder what the CEO of Qantas thinks about his stance?

Glass Houses.

Who died and made him god?

Hell awaits for all of humanity

Let’s not forget this is exactly what our acting prime minister believes also

So he believes in fairytales. Oh well. We live in a free country he has a right to his view. This is not a story

Freedom of speech, freedom of religion. When these two things are taken away it’s a very slippery slope RugbyAU

Replace the word America with Australia.

He is religious and it is his view and not just about gays stop being so insecure.if u believe in hell you might worry if u don’t nothing to worry about .

For goodness sake, raelenecastle , section 1.4 & 1.5 of your own inclusion policy says homophobic language is unacceptable in our game **whether intentional or unintentional**. Whether Folau 'intended to bring hurt' or not is irrelevant. Follow your own guidelines!

Is this idiotic rugby player night?

He has a right to free speech. He made a comment in a respectful way & the notion that it was hate speech is absurd. Too many snowflakes aimlessly wandering the streets always offended by something.

Funny how the headlines are focusing on “anti-gay”....speak against anyone people but don’t you dare speak against the gays! What kind of sick world do we live in that the media must make an outrage at anyone that doesn’t like gays!

Never again a qantaswallabies . The level of hate...he's gone.

Wots shocking about a Christian saying the truth is Jesus Christ?

Wtf is he saying. Talking absolute rubbish.

When he says Hell, is he referring to the Hellfire club?

Yes, a shocking post in which Folau expresses views which are not allowed to be expressed in Australia, because free speech is banned. What a pathetic country, scared of alternative opinions.

thought crime !

Why are non believers who obviously dont believe that hell exists are outraged by his posts? I as a Christian, if a muslim told me i will go to hell for eating pork, i wouldnt get outraged i would laugh.

Everyone is entitled to their beliefs, and you are welcome to share those should you feel the need... but equally, we are entitled to judge you for those beliefs and act accordingly. His beliefs are not congruent with those of world rugby and he should be removed from the game.

So just most of his teammates. Most people who buy tickets for matches or watch at home. Most people in general.

I'm sure he thinks I will go to hell aswell, who cares wtf he thinks its HIS opinion and he is entitled to it.. it's only words. Rugby can fuck off and stop telling people what to think.

I don't think it's homophobic, he's had a swipe at a large percentage of the community. I don't agree with him, he also has a right to express his religious beliefs. He hasn't incited violence so it freedom of speech.. It's not nice, it's also not hate speech.

I will never forgive Izzy for not passing to Foley in that loss to Scotland.

he has every right to have an opinion

Why on earth is so obsessed with it..... He must struggle with feelings himself.

He didn't miss many groups....It was a broad swipe at everyone actually

Is he not entitled to his beliefs? When I played league there was no requirement to leave your personal opinions at home.

We expect management to act accordingly. This is hate, discrimination. Zero tolerance

Mr. PERFECT?

He knows none of those childhood stories exist.... right!

If Israel Folau can't express his beliefs, neither should we be confronted with promiscuity and marxist obscenities, what's good for the goose is good for the gander-let's see some of the 'TOLERANCE' that the left demands, applied to traditional values as well.

Free speech does not equal denigration of others... Spouting gibberish makes you appear foolish Is there a place in hell for that? Come to think of it Where's your proof for hell?

I don't agree with his words but I defend his right to say it. It's not like he's going to influence anyone who doesn't already think that way.

Now if he was a Muslim, his views would just be swept under the rug.

That is his beliefs, leave the man alone please. At least he isn't doing a Brunei and demanding gays get stoned to death.

The Wallaby posted a message on his Instagram account that said “hell awaits” “drunks, homosexuals, adulterers, liars, fornicators, thieves, atheists and idolators” — adding they should “repent'. we are atheists, there is no hell dickhead. 🤦‍♂️

He's perfectly entitled to his own opinion, no matter how 'shocking' you find it!

Guy is dangerous to society should be sacked fuck him he belongs to a dangerous religion . He is an utter disgrace as human being why my Waratahs jumper is put away not earn and follow Rebels . He needs to say sorry no Just get 8 to 5 job . You are not worth listing Jerk walk .,

Shame on him. I hope he gets sacked. Disgusting behaviour.

I hear AIDS is hell

I despise what you say but I will defend to my death your right to... actually, no. Just shut and disappear I’m all but one thing on that list. See you in hell I guess? God so loved the world He gave His only begotten Son the whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have Eternal life.

Israel goes to the polls as Netanyahu seeks record fifth termIsraelis are set to vote in an election on Tuesday that could hand conservative Prime Minister Benjamin 'Bibi' Netanyahu a record fifth term. Hopefully this will be an early Australian Election party starter. This man is a criminal and has managed to turn Israel into a disgrace, always at a state of perpetual war it's neighbours with no way forward. What could have been.... What a shame.
