I also thought two other points about this whole story are interesting.
1. His original post (the one that all the fuss was about) also said that all atheists were going to burn in hell - as well as gay people (and thieves and the rest of the "bad" people he listed). No-one is getting in the slightest worked up about the fact that he was happy to have a pop at atheists. Not that we believe in hell, but the sentiment that he wishes us all harm isn't very nice.
2. His gofundme page (an American company) found him to be in breach of their T&Cs and removed him. Which I found quite amusing.
As far as I'm concerned he should be (at the very least) be shunned and stripped of his team membership. If he'd come out and said "kill all the Jews" we wouldn't be having this debate would we? Why is "acceptable" because he dresses it up with a Christian label?
