Is the animosity toward Christianity getting worse or has it always been there and is just showing its ugly head more openly? Rugby player Israel Folau is a Christian and in his social media posted a portion from the Bible where it says liars, adulterers, murderers, and homosexuals were going to hell if they did not repent and trust the Lord Jesus as their personal Saviour. Well, that cost him his position as a player and his multi-million dollar contract. However, being the Christian he is, he did not back down but is fighting Rugby Australia through the legal system.

Now, “…stunning revelations that Rugby Australia chief Raelene Castle said she would have punished the star if he photocopied the Bible.

Partial transcripts of a code of conduct hearing held before the star fullback was fired reveal Ms Castle said that the 30-year-old — who was the face of the game in Australia — would have been in trouble for copying problematic sections.” https://thewest.com.au/sport/rugby-union/israel-folau-hits-back-at-rugby-australia-ceos-bible-ban-stance-ng-5b91cb00860c0d07b0950ba83f09ee92

However, I ask, does the Australian Football League have a problem with one of their women’s’ team praying to Allah?

Here we have Amna Karra-Hassan in the center leading the AFL Auburn Giants team in a prayer before a match in Wollondilly, Australia.

What do you think would be the reaction if a Christian led a prayer to God the Father through the Name of His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, before an AFL or Rugby match?
