'Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.'

Oye vey! That takes on a whole new meaning in this context...

Some of these "artists" somehow think the world will stop revolving if they withhold their "talents" from people with whom they disagree. Like lieberal politicians, they have a vastly overinflated sense of self-worth and wouldn't even be missed if they disappeared altogether.

It reminds me of this little poem my Daddy used to recite to me:

These backhouse poets when they die,
Deserve erected to the sky,
In memory of their clever wit,
A towering momument made of sh*t!

Empty threat! No use,no royalties!

"For more than a week, Mormons in show business have shared rumors that Schwartz might punish Mormons for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' involvement in passing a California initiative establishing marriage as exclusively between a man and a woman."

A lot of pink ink just to ruin Romney for 2012, when the facts patently state that Obama voters passed Prop 8.

Nonetheless, he urged all "fair-minded Mormons to reconsider their position and come to support the right of homosexuals to marry the person they love."

Homosexuals have the same rights as heterosexuals do. . .they can marry someone of the opposite sex.

Queers are the only ones who can actually do that, in this context.

...former Mormon Jon Powell called on the music industry to refuse to license certain material to LDS musical groups. In the piece, Powell specifically targeted Brigham Young University's "Young Ambassadors," of which he was once a member.

That's right, the biggest threats to the United States, according to the gay lobby, are the Boy Scouts and The Young Ambassadors (think "Up With People"). It just goes to show you that these activists aren't looking for equality, the want to remove the Freedom of Religion part of the First Amendment. They want final say over what people can and cannot believe about homosexuality in specific and politics in general. They want to ban opposition.

Stephen Schwartz finds Mormon organizational zeal on behalf of California's Proposition 8 to be "reprehensible,"...

I find Stephen Schwartz to be reprehensible. Saw Wicked in Chicago a couple of years ago and yawned/snoozed through it. Granted, I'm not a theater fan, but there's always some little, subtle political activism theme in most of these homo-phile playwrights and composers. I sensed this immediately in Wicked and lost interest.

Still, the poor guy will be castigated to no end by the Gaystapo for not falling in lock step with their hateful agenda.
