if anything, it is Folau who is suffering the bullying for articulating his views
Agree. I personally think the whole things a joke. Although Folau hasn't portrayed his beliefs in the best possible way, the whole reaction has been ridiculous. He is 100% free to portray his beliefs and this is only a big subject because someone has intentionally asked him a question on social media to get this sort of response. He didn't openly go out in the media portraying his hatred for gays, he just honestly answered a fans question. There are plenty of professional sportspeople throughout the world who share the same beliefs as him, he just got baited and tbh I dont think he could care less about the reaction - hence why he reiterated his point again
So him saying gays should burn in hell is ok. But people reacting negatively to that view is ridiculous?
He is “100% free to portray his belief” but when people react and portray their belief that he’s wrong, they’re being ridiculous?
