I said before on this thread that this issue is a little bit bigger than just Folau for rugby, he is clearly an outlier, but there is a very strong, very religious conservative islander community that rugby would love to see continue to embrace rugby. There is an interesting balance that has...

Yep, we should be celebrating how far we have come while appreciating a good part of the population isn't there yet (4.9 million of us voted against gay marriage) to that end shame & scorn will not be successful tools in shaping further change

I think this is pointy end of diversity culture. For all the platitudes about inclusiveness there seems to be a hierarchy of what segment of the diversity pie is more important/worthy than another The world is still working through the reality that these things overlap and are not all...

I think Jehovah Witnesses have the same beliefs, as do most Jews, Muslims & Buddhists

They can because most people don't look closely at the underlying morality of a business Qantas is clearly trying to buy some level clean moral position by sponsoring the Wobs (it is what it is for). They don't want anyone looking at their businesses practices while they attempt to take the...
