Support Campbell's Soup and give the finger to gay-bashing homophobes

Found this over at [livejournal.com profile] gamera_spinning's and whole-heartedly agree with him.

Short version: Campbell's bought two two-page advertisements in the December and January issues of The Advocate, which features a lesbian couple and their son, and apparently the Catholic Church thinks this is going to destroy the fabric of civilization and the folks at catholic.com are apparently asking folks to call Campbell's to protest their "supporting the homosexual agenda".


Here's the nonsense over at Catholic Forums, wanting folk to contact the CEO of Campbell's to pressure him to take the ads down. I don't think so.

You can see the oh-so-horrific ads here:

Already sent off my email to this man in support of his advertising choices!

I have found that to be true in the last few years but I still prefer it as a default trait in preference to bitterness; at one point that was an either/or proposition for me.

I'll extend trust, just so far, until it is proven one way or another. That seems to work fairly well for me. As, head of an entertainment business, a Minister and when playing Queen, being open and trusting is what I need to be. I have to take it on an individual basis and take the risk.

Which is why we would make the fab-o team - You're able to trust people, where I generally don't... ;-)
