GoFundMe axes Christian rugby star’s $500k fundraiser, showing need for alternative WonderWe

Image
A popular fundraising website has canceled a fundraiser for a Christian rugby player who was fired for his religious beliefs about sexual sin, making the Christian-friendly  WonderWe  site even more relevant to social conservatives.   Today GoFundMe shut down a webpage soliciting donations towards the legal fees of Tongan-Australian athlete Israel Folau. Folau was dismissed by Rugby Australia (RA) in May for social media posts his critics said showed hatred for people with same-sex attractions.  The sports star is bringing a suit against RA, arguing that their decision was motivated by religious discrimination. Folau and  his wife Maria , also a professional athlete, say that they have already spent $100,000 Australian ($70,000 US) on legal fees.  A popular fundraising website has canceled a fundraiser for a Christian rugby player who was fired for his religious beliefs about sexual sin, making the Christian-friendly  WonderWe  site even more relevant to social conservatives

GoFundMe and Free Speech

Today GoFundMe page for Israel Folau was taken down because he quoted 1 Cor 6 on a meme on social media, was sacked and needs to raise money for a court case that Rugby Australia intends to through its erroneous weight at him and punish him again....for quoting scripture and offending Qantas Chief.  1)  The Death Of Free Speech I have lamented the death of Free Speech in Australia for the last few years. Now as a point of clarification, Australia does not have Free Speech enshrined in their constitution like the Americans do. In fact, the only social freedom that’s guaranteed in our constitution is religion. (Which I have to say in under extreme threat right now). Australia doesn’t have a bill of rights, which is where free speech usually gets defined and protected in most Western Democracies. It’s also not incorporated in any Federal legislation. Instead, Free Speech is only a common law, which was adopted from the Westminster System from the UK, which means it’s a pretty loos

GOFundMe bow to LGBT mob

GoFundMe bends the knee to the LBGTQ mob and joins the pack attack on Folau, columnist Lawrence Money tweeted. GoFundme accuses him of hate. What did he say.....using a meme he said 1 Cor 6:9 Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men. 10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. The Daily Telegraph columnist Miranda Devine added: “The haters and Christophobes have forced Israel Folau’s church into hiding and GoFundMe appears to have closed his account, in the usual illiberal way of woke corporates. Did you know GoFundMe takes 5 per cent of donations? So it’s reaped $40,000 from Folau.” One Nation NSW leader Mark Latham said GoFundMe’s decision was an “excessive use of corporate power”. “During the SSM campaign, Lefties scoffed when I said the absence of Religious Freedom Protections w

What is equal love? - the hypocrisy of the homosexual agenda

Justice Michael Kirby, High Court of Australia (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Slogans such as ‘marriage equality’ and ‘equal love’ have dominated the gay marriage debate so far. But as the federal parliament inches closer to dealing with the three ‘marriage equality’ bills that are before it, we are finally beginning to see their consequences. During the recent Senate Hearings into one of the bills, the Green’s Marriage Equality Amendment Bill, former High Court Justice Michael Kirby was asked what logical reason could be given for not extending ‘marriage equality’ to other configurations of love such as consenting polygamous and polyamorous ones. “The question that is before the parliament at the moment is the question of equality for homosexual people,” he told the Senate.“There may be, in some future time, some other question. The lesson in courts and in the parliament, I suggest, is that you take matters step by step.” And it is clear by recent events that there are those who are

SAME-SEX ‘MARRIAGE’ DISCRIMINATES AGAINST KIDS

As the Australian Federal Parliament reconvenes, in a week that will see yet another same-sex 'marriage' Bill tabled, the Australian Marriage Forum has placed a full page Ad in The Australian, challenging the injustice of so-called “marriage equality”. “It is time to take the gay lobby down from their moral high horse”, said Dr David van Gend, President of the Australian Marriage Forum. “They are obsessed with an adult-centred view of “marriage equality” that removes just discrimination against homosexual adults while inflicting unjust discrimination against children”, he said. “If 'equality' for adults can only come at the cost of inequality for kids, where is the justice in that?” Dr van Gend asked. “If 'equal love' for two gay men can only come at the cost of destroying the primal love between a mother and her baby, what is loving about that?” “And if a movement that has demanded 'tolerance' of society now shows gross intolerance of anybody who disag
