mishalakWell sorta. For years I avoided Nestle products. That was just a choice, not a religion as it was with some people. I avoided them because they seemed to be in a grey area in their behavior and there are plenty of other producers of food out there.
So it's going to be for me in regard to Orson Scott Card because of this commentary. There are plenty of good SF writers out there who are not against giving me the right to marry if I so choose. I won't skip cons just because he'll be there, but it would be a strike against going to one. I won't be all religious about it, but I'm going to encourage my friends not to buy his books, or if they do to buy them used so he doesn't get any money.
