Homophobic rugby player is bombarded with gay porn

Este artigo também está disponível em: Português Español

Australian professional rugby player Israel Folau, known for his homophobic lines based on the fact that he is an evangelical, received numerous gay porn scenes from a colleague after joining the Catalans Dragons team’s WhatsApp group. The information came from team coach Andrew Webster during a radio interview. The information is from Queerty.

“As soon as he [Folau] joined the [time] Catalans, he joined the WhatsApp group with all the other players. Then Jimmy Maloney [outro jogador do time], started bombarding him with gay porn”.

The revolt of his teammates occurred because, in 2018 Folau made a series of homophobic and transphobic comments on social media, saying that everyone is “condemned to hell unless they repent of their sins”, based on the book of Corinthians, chapter 6, verses 9 and 10.

At the time, he was suspended from professional championships by Rugby Australia, and he even ran a crowdfunding campaign on “GoFundMe” to be able to pay the costs of the process and also support his family. When it managed to raise almost $ 500.000, the campaign was deactivated by the platform itself, which said it did not agree with its homophobic positioning.

In 2020 he managed to sign a contract with the aforementioned Catalans Dragons.

THE RELIGIOUS SHIELD FOR HOMOPHOBIA

The Bible is, until today, a book used to support homophobic positions based on the “word of God”. In general, they use the book of Leviticus (chapter 2, verse 22) to condemn male homosexuality by saying that: “The union between two men as if it were the union of a man and a woman is an abomination”.

In the book of Corinthians, quoted by Folau, he says that the effeminate will not inherit the kingdom of God, once again making an analogy to male homosexuality. However, an article published by Vitor Angelo on the extinct Blogay channel, gives ten reasons put forward by Reverend Jim Rigby from Austin Presbyterian Church, Texas, why Christians should take another look at homosexuality:

• 1 – If Jesus did not mention a subject, it cannot be part of his teachings..
• 2 – You are not being chased when you are prevented from chasing others.
• 3 – The truth is not like a wine that gets better with time. The truth is like manna: you must recognize it wherever you are and with whomever you are.
• 4 – You cannot speak of “privileges” when someone demands to have the same rights that you already have.
• 5 – When you are harming someone, it is no longer about your “personal beliefs”.
• 6 – Marriage is a civil ceremony, which makes it a civil right.
• 7 – If the way in which a public discussion is stimulated has become the norm of your morality, you are the one who is lost.
• 8 – To condemn homosexuality, you must quote parts of the Bible that you yourself do not obey. Anyone who obeyed the entire Leviticus would now be in prison.
• 9 – If we did not do the right thing in our time, our grandchildren will look at us with the same shame that we look at our racist grandparents.
• 10 – When Jesus forbade his followers to judge others, that included you.
