Boycot this!

I've heard that Gays are calling for boycotts of all things Mormon, based on the overwhelming Mormon financial support of California's Proposition 8.

Well Gays, I am throwing down the Gay Gauntlet to you. Will you boycott Robert Pattinson, sexy young man-star of the film 'Twilight'?

Yes, I've heard Lynn & Alex from L.A. Rag Mag on the Adam Carolla show, dishing about how hunky Robert is as Vampire-boy. But here's the problem: the novel Twilight was written by a Mormon. So by supporting the film, you are supporting a dues-paying member of the LDS Church.

(Although in all honesty, surely there are enough Mormons in California that you can find one involved in some way with many, many movies, and would have to boycott them all to make sure your film-going dollar didn't support any Mormons...)

So, what'll it be, my Gay brethren? Will you turn your back on sweet young Robert Pattinson in order to deprive the creator of the Twilight series (nay, the Twilight Saga!) from earning income? Or will you admit that boycotting a religion is kind of a stupid thing to do?

It's a good thing the Mormons are so polite. Seriously, they could accuse you all of intolerance, and then we would have sexual-preference-minority on persecuted-religion-minority hate crime situation going on.

Thanks for visiting Mormania!
