Alabama Southern Baptists Criticize Walmart
By Mimi Rothschild
Yet another news story has crossed my path regarding Walmart’s recent partnership with the Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce. This one comes from the Birmingham Business Journal.
Sidenote: Why do gays and lesbians need to have their own chamber of commerce? Thoughts?
Anyway, Alabama Southern Baptists did not call for a boycott, but rather a call to pray for Walmart.
All of this makes me wonder what exactly a partnership with the gay organization would entail. Obviously this means they are going to look for ways to specifically market to gays. Gays and lesbians have long been suspicious of Walmart’s status as a “family-friendly” company.
Prayer should be an afterthought. Is anyone out there planning on launching a personal boycott?
