FORD THREATENED BY CHRISTIANS

Ford Motor Company of Dearborn, Michigan was told by the American Family Association (AFA) of Tupelo, Mississippi to end their gay friendly ways or the 2 million AFA members will boycott the company by not buying any Ford products.

The company is really hurting for sales this year and by all indications, has made a secret deal with the radical, Christian group to do just what they ask - become anti-gay.

An obvious indication is Ford's pulling of their advertising for Land Rover and Volvo from gay publications. Other anti-gay moves have not been announced by the company although it denies vehemently that all their decisions are strictly business and have nothing to do with the gay issue and the boycott.

The AFA issued a statement saying they are happy with the Ford response and are calling off the boycott.

The problem, as I see it, is that these wacky Christians will impose their twisted views on us by hook or by crook. They are using their numbers to wage economic terrorism on businesses to make them conform to their way of thinking or they will put them out of business. Even though it appears to be against the law - it is not.

On a side note, the gays who have way more purchasing power than the twits from Mississippi, can also threaten a boycott and we would find out who can hurt Ford more economically.

This is obviously not good for Ford either way but Ford has already opened Pandora's Box by making a secret deal with the AFA, so now they will get what is coming to them but alas my family is a Ford family and I hate to see them suffer BUT maybe that is reason enough to fight this terrorism by the Christian Right.

I am not lumping all Christians to the AFA and the way they operate. I have already had a run-in with this organization. They seem to have a strong agenda.

How do we combat these Christian terrorists - only with other Christians since most of the country is Christian and the other religions do not want any part of this battle, fearing they might be called un-American. I hope normal Christians will see the danger here and unite to fight these idiots.

The core of the problem is that many Christians feel Christ or the Bible are specifically anti-gay or consider the gay lifestyle as a sin and an abomination and therefore to be opposed and eradicated from the face of the earth. I will have more on that in a follow-up blog.
