"Kemple says Pepsi has made more than $3 million in contributions toward organizations that advocate homosexuality, like the Human Rights Campaign and the Parents and Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays."

Fair enough.

"The group also claims Pepsi's commercials support a gay lifestyle."

Uh, how's that again?

Oh well. This makes more sense than when half of FR was going to boycott because they were convinced the new Pepsi logo was based on Obama's campaign roundel.

I personally think obsessively researching the causes different companies support and altering one's consumer habits accordingly is a recipe for insanity.

“...altering one’s consumer habits accordingly is a recipe for insanity.”

Thank you for inserting some common sense, Dan Middleton. I can’t keep up with who does what or who supports this or that cause. I honestly wonder how effective some of these boycott campaigns are. For me, I buy what works and what I like. If I want to help an organization, I donate my money or my time. If I really want to change the world, then a good place to start is with my friends and family. A boycott is easy - taking the time to share with another human can be difficult and uncomfortable. I do understand we are in a culture war. But, we are not going to win with some knockout punch. We are going to win when we convince those around us in the rightness of our cause - 1 person at a time.-—JM
