Nelsan Willis Quit True Blood Over Beliefs

Now this just pets my peeve

For ages gays have tried to become accepted in mainstream hollywood and gain the support of everyone. Well, it seems they have gone so far the other direction that now anyone that speaks against them is declared the enemy.

Nelsan Willis quit True Blood because his character would be involved in a relationship with another man.

I've never seen the show, but from what I saw of Willis from the show, his character had "gay clues" written all over it. However, maybe like me, he had no problem playing a gay character but just doesn't want to be in a relationship with a guy. I get it why don't they?

Some critics say Willis should have known this was coming considering the show has had LGBT front and center. In fairness how is he supposed to know that? I reiterate my point in that playing a homosexual may not be the problem. It's having to touch another man, caress another man and kiss another man where he and lots of people draw the line.

Mind you Willis is also a Christian.

According to VP of Business an Culture at the Media Research Center Willis' career will suffer now and many will label him as unprofessional and a phobe."

Isn't that typical? You stand up for your beliefs and get labeled for it.

If a person does not want to do a nude scene it's ok, but a person doesn't want to play a "bisexual character" they get labeled and it may cost their career?

Sad. Do we really have freedom of religion? Some students have to quit school because of college classes given on their day of worship and now acting careers are on the line. Interesting. Gays stand up for their rights and get rewarded, Christians stand up for their rights and get punished. My how much we've changed.
