Lol not really, just wondering how you became so bitter and twisted?Is this one of those ones where I tell the story and then you tell me it was actually gods guiding and invisible hand that gave me the strength to carry on…..
As I previously posted, the NRL's own statistics acknowledge that 42% of LGBTI people hide their sexuality or gender identity at "social & community events".
What the??? Really?? Because I don’t share your views I’m bitter and twisted……Lol not really, just wondering how you became so bitter and twisted?

That means we shouldn't judge others else the Lord judge us.What the??? Really?? Because I don’t share your views I’m bitter and twisted……
I don’t know but I read this somewhere can you help me understand what it means
“Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you”
Should we invite George Pell and we can all give him a hug and tell him how sorry we are…….
Mind your own business and stick to the theme of the thread. Christianity is not under attack nor the victim here so please cease with playing that tired, false card.So you're not Christian?

Let me put it to you this way...Hide their sexuality? who in gods name goes to the football to show their sexuality?
What exactly are you hiding or more precisely how do you DISPLAY your sexuality and why do you feel you need to.
I go to the footy, put on my jeans and my bunnies guernsey. I notice others in the Souths gear and smile
it beggars belief that these long bows are thrown into the discussion
Let me put it to you this way...
We have "random Souths guys" right who, thanks to the fact that rugby league doesn't cause too much random violence off the pitch like, for example, European ultras culture, can go to a sporting event in Souths colours without any major concern about violence against them just for wearing a Souths jersey.
Now, you might find 1 Souths fan at a random event or you might find a few. They don't have to hide who they support because most people understand that a footy team you follow is just a footy team.
Now, imagine a hypothetical LGBTIQA+ person - let's say, a gay man - wanting to go to an event with their -let's say, same-sex gay male - partner.
This person may not have the same confidence to hold hands, hug or kiss his partner out of fear of persecution. Have you never kissed your partners or hugged someone at a game of football out of fear that someone would take exception?
Congratulations, you're lucky - not everyone else is and, again, 42% of LGBTI people have hidden their sexuality (which isn't just about sex, it affects their romantic life too) in similar circumstances.
It's not a long bow when this stuff is actually happening and keeping people out of supporting their team in the same way the rest of us are, because they don't know if they're going to come home in the same state they left it.

It's also been reported that, as recently as 2017, there were still gangs going around with the intent of attacking LGBTIQ+ people in the northern beaches with baseball bats.
This isn't all hypothetical - this is STILL happening and (statistically speaking) to people who probably are Rabbitohs through and through.
I don't want to get into the religious debate ,but she makes a strong point that's for sure. This fiasco has stirred up a hornets nest and probably made things way worse for all parties involved.
