buffalo, I haven’t signed to boycott but my family stopped using Crest, Tide and Bounce a long time ago. Keep up the good work and just remember that they think they’re doing the right thing by teaching us “closed minded people” not to be so judgemental.😉
 
Fascinating. One of the reasons listed for boycotting P&G was that it received an 86 percent rating from the Human Rights Campaign, which measures how well companies treat their gay employees, consumers, and investors. 100 percent means they treat them very well.

I assume that all good Catholics will boycott the 21 companies that received 100 percent ratings as well. You can do your own research, but you might want to be verrryy careful the next time you fly, get a credit card, open a bank account, or buy a computer (Intel’s on there but, hey, guess what, so’s Apple. What’s a good Christian to do???), running shoes, pants, or floor wax.

I assume other companies scored between 86 and 100 percent; I assume you will boycott those as well.

Good luck with your boycott. I continue to be amazed by the mentality that says we should punish those companies who treat other human beings with dignity and respect.
 
For of you who are concerned about this issue, here’s a link to a gay-friendly website that lists comments about particular employers. If you’re offended by gay images, don’t go (there’s advertising that shows two men nude from the waist up), but it does give you a much longer list of gay-friendly companies to boycot.

planetout.com/money/article.html?sernum=311

According to this article, the following companies all have gay-friendly environments:

American Airlines
American Express
Apple
Bank of America
Barnes & Noble
Best Buy
Borders
Cingulair Wireless
Home Depot
Lowes

Ah, the heck with it. My fingers hurt. Rest assured that it contains pretty much every computer company in the US. Boycott away, and good luck getting your Christmas shopping done…

Remember. We must be consistent. Boycott one gay-friendly company, boycott 'em all.
 
P&G is out to sell soap powder
nothing more, nothing less
 
I would suggest buying off brands and try to stay away from ALL the major companies.

I used to work in a factory where we had some items (all identical) and we sold to 5 different companies! Just the name of the product and the packaging changes.

For instance, we have a discount food store here called Aldi. Most of the products and foods sold are just as good as the named brands. I find the fabric softner just as good as P&G.

I am sure food, cleaning supplies, etc. all are producted under different names. It is just the P&G named items to be concerned about.

Go with God!

Not necessarily. There are some products that are hard to find replacements for. The best message you can send to a company is that you will give your business to a competitor rather than letting your money support an immoral agenda. So Proctor & Gamble and Kodak or Ben & Jerry’s can easily be boycotted without having to boycott every company that is problematic.

On the other hand, if you wanted to boycot, for example American Express but that was the only corporate card your employer offered, you would be chosing between using the card or not having expenses paid by your employer. So there isn’t really an option.

Also, the actions of some companies are truly egregious. Other companies are either just trying to be inoffensive or are contributing in an indirect way. We don’t have to treat those companies equally.
 
there are a couple of long threads about P&G and this issue, and a couple more about the morality of doing business with companies who may support agendas we don’t agree with. I don’t have the energy to rehash the discussion again.
 
Tide makes me have an itchy rash. My dad used that stuff on our clothes for years when I was a kid, and I suffered because of them!!

I question the morality of any company who would make such a potently fragrant product.

I say boycott em!

So the morality of boycotting gay-friendly companies is based on convenience? How relativist.
 
Heck with gay marriage, these people are just plain bad. The man who was the “Gamble” of Procter and Gamble was a Nazi. I’m not kidding people, look it up.

Wow!

The company was founded by Proctor and Gamble in 1837. So, if we’re to believe Christian4Life, not only was Gamble a Nazi, he was a Nazi almost 80 years before the Nazi party was even founded. Sort of the proto-Nazi, if you will.

That makes him extra bad, I guess.

Seriously, people, don’t we as Catholics have some duty to make sure stuff like this is true before we pass it off as fact?

No, boycotting isn’t about OUR moral actions. There isn’t anything immoral about buying Tide or Kodak film. Boycotting is about voicing (with our $$) our unhappiness with the immoral or unethical actions of the corporation.

A boycot itself isn’t moral or immoral. Well I guess it could be immoral if it was done in a way that slandered a corporation of repeated untruths or employed violent or unethical methods. There certainly isn’t any sin attached to not boycotting a particular corporation as would be attached to an immoral act. A boycott is a personal statement, that if joined to enough other personal statements, might be heard.

Well, I wouldn’t want to do business with any company that treats its gay employees well. Not only should we boycott them, we shoud patronize those companies that treat their gay employees poorly.
 
No. All employees are human and should be treated with dignity. However, boycott the companies that champion the gay lifestyle.

I am boycotting them… I have printed out their product list. No more for me! For those who say it is silly, don’t judge… It is something we feel the need to do.

Thank you, thank you!! (Christian4Life you are a very busy boycotter!) We MUST recognize and accept that while our faith may be sufficient to guide many of our actions, it may not be enough for the secular culture around us. If we are ever to be taken seriously in our protests, and influence the larger culture in which we live, we must do so in an intelligent, informed manner. We need to have a facts straight and make a coherent link between facts and the values at issue. Absent this, we risk being dismissed as a bunch of bible thumping, bead-carrying flakes.
 
So we should only patronize companies that are unfriendly and hostile to gays? How Christian of us!
 
Cracker Barrell is a good one to patronize. They fire any employee who they find out is gay (unless prohibited by local law).
