Microsoft for Sale to Straights?

Pastor in Microsoft 'gay rights' share bid - Telegraph: "# The Reverend Ken Hutcherson, a former Dallas Cowboys linebacker, heads the Antioch Bible Church in Redmond, home of Microsoft. The Reverend Ken Hutcherson The Reverend Ken Hutcherson He told Microsoft executives at a shareholders' meeting last week that he would be their 'worst nightmare' if they continued to defy him. Antioch Bible Church attracts around 3,500 worshippers for its services and Mr Hutcherson is a powerful figure in the Christian conservative movement. His church, which emphasises racial diversity and a strict moral code, grew from a bible study class for just 15 people in 1984. An advocate of a 'biblical stance' against divorce and homosexuality, Mr Hutcherson, 55, is asking millions of evangelical activists, as well as Orthodox Jewish and other allies, to buy up Microsoft shares and demand a return to traditional values. Microsoft, he declares, will be just the first company targeted in an escalation of the culture wars between evangelicals and corporate America."

Well, if this seem preposterous, how about MS being soled to a Sauidi Prince?
