“Do you believe that homosexuals go to hell?”
The head of the Australian Christian Lobby seemed to almost squirm uncomfortably as the question – posed by Lisa Wilkinson – hung in the air on The Sunday Project last night.
And his answer, long-winded as it was, was as evasive as expected.
Martin Iles, whose organisation is backing a crowdfunding push that has raised nearly $700,000 for disgraced Wallabies player Israel Folau’s legal proceedings against Rugby Australia, declined to give a straight answer about whether he agrees with Folau’s despicable Instagram post earlier this year.
The post, which read that “hell awaits” homosexuals, led to his sacking.

Do non-Christians believe that hell is an actual place that actually exists?
If no, then why all the uproar?
Either you're being deliberately obtuse or you're just plain dim.
It’s the context in which it’s said. Hell represents a place of eternal pain and punishment. This is splitting hairs.
This has been my point from the beginning of this farce.
It's amazing that anyone in the 21st century believes a place like hell actually exists.......
