Folau's cousin fired from Catholic school

[Raven]

Israel Folau's cousin Josiah Folau has been let go from his casual teaching job at a prestigious Catholic school in Sydney's south-west after he described the Catholic Church as "the synagogue of Satan".

Mr Folau worked as a tutor and boarding house supervisor at St Gregory’s College at Campbelltown. He was also an alumnus of the school, who finished eighth in the state in religious studies in the 2016 Higher School Certificate.

A staff member confirmed the decision on Thursday. The school's decision came after the Herald revealed on July 20 Josiah's involvement in the 30-member Jesus Christ Church founded by his uncle, Israel Folau's father, Pastor Eni, in Kenthurst.

The church preaches that any Christian who is not "born again" will go to hell.

Josiah also wrote to a parent who attended one of the church's services that "any devout Catholic person IS NOT A SAVED CHRISTIAN WHATSOEVER.

"Look at Catholic doctrine, almost 100% of it is false and is filled with lies," Josiah wrote.

"The blasphemous Catholic mass is a paganistic ritual rooted in heresy, evil and devil worship.

"Roman Catholicism is masked devil worship," he also said.

The 30-strong congregation of the Truth of Jesus Christ Church, established by Folau’s father Eni in 2013, believes the "everlasting torture and doom" of hell awaits most Christians.

Israel Folau's cousin Josiah belongs to the same small religious cult as Folau. He's been sacked from his job at a Catholic school, because his cult believes that the Catholic Church is "the synagogue of Satan".

So, what prevails here:
- the religious school's legally-privileged right under Australian law to sack people who don't share their beliefs? Or
- Josiah Folau's right to express *his* genuine religious beliefs?

It's like Sophie's choice. Will the Australian Christian Lobby raise money for poor Josiah?

I think the ARU should register as a church!

Church of Bum Sniffers! (As in scrums for the uneducated)

Given he got 8th in religious studies, he knows his topic.
