Hundreds of Sacramento-area students rallied to support four students suspended for wearing anti-gay shirts. One participant said: "It's only going to get worse against Christians. We're going to get persecuted more and more. But those who stand to the end: God is going to save them." Um, right...

NBC has cancelled the Aiden Quinn drama about a pill-popping priest with a gay son that met fire from conservative Christian groups. Naturally, groups such as Focus on the family and the American Family Association are gloating.
AFA Chairman Donald E. Wildmon said NBC's decision to cancel the program is instructive. "This shows the average American that he doesn't have to simply sit back and take the trash being offered on TV, but he can get involved and fight back with his pocketbook," he said.
Of course, if you know Hollywood you know they only pray to one God: the green one, and the real reason the show was axed was, like 90 % of shows lucky enough to make it to the air, that it wasn’t bringing in the book of numbers, so to speak. Still, it’s always sad to see a quality show end, even if it did star the guy from Desperately Seeking Susan.

An Indiana NBC affiliate has decided to remove the new drama The Book of Daniel from it’s line up because of several complaints it’s received from viewers (read: one batshit televangelist told his audience to write). The new show stars hottie Aiden Quinn as a conflicted, pill-popping Episcopal priest with a, shock of shocks, a gay son.
The AFA says NBC is promoting the show as a serious drama about Christians, but calls Quinn’s character “a drug-addicted Episcopal priest whose wife depends heavily on her midday martinis." In a statement, AFA Chairman Donald E. Wildmon said, “We are tired of NBC’s anti-Christian bigotry.” The group also points to a gay character as another problem with the show.
Actually, we at Queerty encourage stupid moves like this by the anti-gay lobby. More publicity for a quality drama that explores actually complex issues. Hell, a few more boycotts and the show might reach number one. Actually, we’re hoping the American Family Association boycotts us.
