When Australian rugby star Israel Folaus team contract was terminated after he voiced the principles of his Christian faith, he turned to GoFundMe Australia to crowdsource funds for his legal action against Rugby Australia.
Three days later, the popular fundraising platform took down his page with plans to refund all donors.
As a company, we are absolutely committed to the fight for equality for LGBTIQ+ people and fostering an environment of inclusivity, GoFundMe Australia manager Nicola Britton said, according to The Guardian.
After his fundraising page was shut down, a non-party partisan, non-denominational group called Australian Christian Lobby reached out to Folau with the opportunity to host his fundraiser and donated $100,000 to the cause. The fundraiser raised over $1.5 million as of noon Tuesday.
Folau, a former Wallabies player, had his $4 million contract with the Australian rugby team terminated in early April after he posted a meme on Instagram that reads: Warning drunks, homosexuals, adulterers, liars, fornicators, thieves, atheists, idolaters, Hell awaits you. Repent! Only Jesus saves.
On June 6, Folaus legal representatives confirmed that he filed a lawsuit with the Australian Fair Work Commission, claiming his contract was unlawfully terminated because of his religious beliefs.
On June 21, Folau went to Instagram again to post the link to a GoFundMe campaign he had started to fund the lawsuit, soliciting his followers to support his legal battle. He shared that he and his wife, Maria, had already spent $100,000 on his case.

No, and I don't care if this looks like hypocrisy. I believe in natural law, and things against natural law should never be tolerated, let alone supported.
As a company, we are absolutely committed to the fight for equality for LGBTIQ+
So they believe in equality, but do not think anyone with an opposing view should have equality.
These people act as the Brown shirts of Hitler and then claim they are for equality, co exist , tolerance etc.
They are so warped with their hatred they cannot see their hypocrisy.
What about fostering an environment of inclusivity???????
Methinks they are grossly hypocritical and have ZERO credibility. Hope they have to pay lots of $$$ in settlement.
It’s always Israel that gets the blame.

Yes, I’m sure the large infrastructure companies, with boards undoubtedly full of Leftists and HR departments full of SJW’s, will be more than happy to help us build. /sarc
Western civilization will only survive by the sword
God actually firebombed the entire valley, including the two cities, except for a small village where Lot and his daughters had taken refuge.
Free market, man. Build your own Constitutional Republic.

What does the “I” stand for in LGBTIQ+?
“The part that’s frightening is the power of the sexual deviant lobby.”
This is why deviancy was outlawed in the first place, these perverts like to form very tight societies and in these little groups they have tended capture organizations like a secret cabal would.
If this weird shit keeps up everyone’s going to have to take a dick up the ass just for the right to exist.
When the Kentucky County Clerk was jailed because she wouldn’t sign a Marriage License, I said then ALL Christians are now unemployable. Every “HR” dept in America has now made a piece of paper every employee has to sign to protect LGBTQ. Even a small business will want to protect themselves from any negative attention. This will setup the eventual jailing of any Christians and bring about the underground church other 3rd world countries have. Thus the Antichrist will waltz into power promising to bring the world together.
I don’t know for sure, but I think it stands for “intersex”, which is a genuine, physical condition. Such folks can contain primary AND secondary characteristics of both sexes. You could even call them genuine transgenders.
I’m not sure that GoF*ckMe has the same near-monopoly position in the economy that Gewgle, Facebooger, Twatter, and AmaBezos do. If they do not, then a free market workaround could actually work.
