New and Improved! Gay Bashing for Shoppers

Received this e-message today from AFA:

P&G ACTIVELY RECRUITS THOSE WHO PRACTICE HOMOSEXUAL BEHAVIOR TO BECOME EMPLOYEES Dear Mxxxx, Procter & Gamble actively seeks out individuals who practice the abnormal and destructive homosexual lifestyle to come to work for the company. It is the only group P&G seeks to employ based on their behavior. P&G recruits from this group because they practice the homosexual lifestyle. The company is currently running a promotion on the homosexual website GAYWORK.COM seeking employees whose sole distinguishing characteristic is sex with same-sex partners. Click here to see the Gaywork.com listing. (If that site isn't working, click here.) In addition, P&G is a major sponsor of Out & Equal, an organization that bills itself as one that "offers LGBT (lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and transgendered) diversity training to companies that want to delve deeper into the special workplace issues faced by LGBT employees." What kind of diversity training are P&G employees forced to attend? Here is a note from a P&G employee recently sent to us. "I'm a P&G employee at their (city) plant. I had to go to the captive audience Diversity class. The movie on homosexuals was very offensive to Christians. It showed a man in a collar (Catholic priest?) saying 'there is nothing in the Bible which says that homosexuality is wrong.'" Why would P&G actively recruit those who engage in homosexual sex and force employees to attend a class that presents those who oppose the homosexual lifestyle in a negative light? Because P&G is committed to promoting the homosexual agenda. Click here to register your support for the boycott! For more information on P&G's promotion of the homosexual agenda, click here. In Cincinnati, Procter & Gamble is aggressively leading the fight to repeal a law that forbids giving special rights to homosexuals. P&G has given $10,000 to the political campaign to repeal the law. Citizens to Restore Fairness, the group pushing for special rights for homosexuals, is chaired by Gary Wright, an employee of P&G given a leave of absence to head the campaign. He is also a leader of P&G's corporate homosexual group GABLE/P&G. P&G has thrown their full corporate weight behind the campaign to give special rights to homosexuals. While P&G puts forth their best effort and money to get the law favoring homosexuals passed, they refuse to support the Ohio Marriage Protection Amendment which defines marriage as being between one man and one woman or to make a donation to the cause. We encourage you to take the action steps listed below. Then forward this information to others on your email list. We need your help to get the word out on this unfortunate situation. American Family Association is asking individuals to: (1) Boycott three products of P&G — Crest toothpaste, Tide detergent, and Pampers diapers. (Many are boycotting all their products, which we encourage. Click here for a complete list of P&G products or look on the back of the product.) (2) Call Chairman A.G. Lafley at 513-983-1100 and politely let him know that you are participating in the boycott and will ask others to do the same. (3) Click here to register your support for the boycott. (4) Please forward this to your friends and family. They will have to see it to believe it, also. (5) Click here to print out and distribute the boycott Crest, Tide and Pampers petition.

In case you were wondering, following is the pertinent portion, to which AFA refers, of Procter & Gamble's job listing on Gaywork.com. I went ahead and highlighted any reference that even hints at the recruitment of "individuals who practice the abnormal and destructive homosexual lifestyle":

Philosophy of Recruiting: Over the years Procter & Gamble has been recognized as one of the more innovative and professional companies in terms of our recruiting practices. Without being modest, this recognition is not without merit. We have had a number of firsts that have enabled us to do a very good job of consistently attracting the diverse, quality talent we seek to run our businesses and grow our organizations. Although we were one of the very first to develop a patented scoreable on-line application form, champion the use of desktop video interviewing, create the multi-function School Team campus concept, and recognize the importance of moving to a paperless, web-based recruiting structure, our real competitive advantage lies as much in our principles as our technologies and approaches. What We Look For: Our people work in a unique and dynamic environment focused on: stretching to reach the breakthrough goal, innovative ideas and visionary leadership, and increasing the speed with which we make decisions and get our products into the hands of consumers. To meet these business goals we need people, who have the ability to think strategically, attack their area of the business with an entrepreneurial attitude, and who possess the skills to execute with excellence. Diversity: Procter & Gamble is deeply committed to diversity in all aspects of recruiting, development, and promotion. Our ultimate business success depends upon developing and fully utilizing the unique skills of people of different genders, races, ages, and cultural backgrounds. This diversity provides a broader, richer, more fertile environment for creative thinking and innovation, which creates a source of competitive advantage for P&G.

Wow. When I was a kid I thought for sure that the kind of cultural prejudice pushed by the AFA and MANY other Christian Right organizations would be a thing of the past by the time I reached adulthood. I don't think I could have been more wrong. What a stupid and terribly evil society we live in.
