Will they do it? Will members actually cancel their accounts and boycott Warner Brothers like the Church has asked? I know the Orthodox LDS members will but it's doubtful that the new "Mormon" converts will.
Female new converts can't even grow out their hair, stop wearing pants, stop wearing bathing suits, and quit their jobs, like the Church requires it's female members to do, how should they be expected to give up TV and internet as well?
They do realize of course that if they ask people to boycott these companies that that means also boycotting Warner Brothers which means boycotting Harry Potter movies and such cartoons as Bugs Bunny as well, right? Is the Church prepared to tell us to take on a full boycott or are they going to pussyfoot around and tell us we can pick and choose which Warner companies to boycott. I'm guessing they didn't think of that as they haven't mentioned it yet.
As for me? I've never liked AOL to begin with and canceled my accounts years ago. I'm not canceling my Road Runner account, as I really see no reason to. The Church's demand for boycott is silly at best, given their reason (a TV show showing the inside of one of the temples on national TV) besides, I'm too busy with a REAL boycott, one that actually matters: boycotting P&G
So, will you be canceling all affiliation with Warner Brothers, including to cancel AOL, Time Warner, Road Runner, and stop watching Warner Brothers movies and TV shows? Personally I think the Church is making a fool of itself with this boycott and will lose members as a result. (To many Harry Potter and Bugs Bunny fans in the Church, and too many folks who will choose TV over Church).
I don't think this is going to win them any prizes either, not considering their reason for the boycott (a TV show showing the inside of one of the temples on national TV).
