One Million Moms Take on Lesbian Yogurt Commercial
Bobby McGuire READ TIME: 2 MIN.
They're at it again.
After an all but too brief respite from blasting the LGBT community with one of their bile-filled "action alerts" the harpies at One Million Moms (OMM) are at it again. Their latest targets; yogurt and lesbians.
A new television commercial for Chobani yogurt featuring a lesbian couple that airs during "family friendly" time has put a serious twist in OMM's director Monica Cole's granny panties, leaving her running from the dairy aisle at her local supermarket faster than you can say "low fat."
The rant reads:
Chobani should be ashamed of their latest commercial for attempting to normalize sin by featuring two women naked in bed together. The newest commercial for Chobani yogurt has two nude women in bed while one lovingly strokes the other's foot. This commercial not only promotes same sex relationships by including two lesbians, but also same sex marriage because the two women wear matching wedding bands. The ad states, "To Love this Life is to Live it Naturally." There is nothing natural about homosexuality.
What does selling yogurt have to do with gay sex? Nothing at all, but Chobani wants to make the association. One Million Moms continues to stand up for Biblical truth, which is very clear in Romans 1:26-27 about this particular type of sexual perversion.
This ad would be inappropriate for television even if it were a heterosexual couple naked in bed together. There is additional concern about the way this advertisement is pushing the LGBT agenda, but an even greater concern is that the commercial is airing when children are likely watching television. To make matters worse, this advertisement has aired during family programs such as "Full House" on Nickelodeon and "The Willis Family" on TLC.
Airing this commercial during family-friendly shows, especially on a children's network, pushes the envelope and crosses a line that Chobani should have never crossed.
Cole is asking the 72,000 followers that she mis-numbers as "one million" to contact Chobani through the company's website and demand that they "remain neutral in the culture war."
Expecting neutrality from the popular Greek Yogurt company may be more than the moms can realistically expect. The offending ad, is part of Chobani's "Love This Life" creative campaign, which aims to highlight "real, authentic moments in life -- modern American stories." According to a statement given to the Huffington Post by a Chobani spokeperson, the inclusive message of the ad is in line with the company's longtime support of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community.�
