Stephen Baldwin, who you may or may not know has converted into some manic crusader for religious morality, was on hand to speak at the Values Voter Summit in Washington DC yesterday in order to rail against the immoral values that he believes are promoted by the TV series Gossip Girl. Stephen, with GG ad posters in hand, spoke at the conservative summit of his outrage at Hollywood’s use of provocative images to lure audiences … here are a few pics:

I mean, I’m all for his right to have an opinion on matters like this, just like I can have my opinion … but it does worry me that conservative groups like this tend to rally together in order to work out an agenda that seeks to limit the free speech and expression of others … whether it be in the arts, in film or in television. I suspect, since Gossip Girl is based on a series of books, these conservative-minded people would also like to curtail books that promote, what they believe are, immoral values as well … which is kinda a short step away from book burning, in my opinion. I post my thoughts on this only because, as I said, it really worries me that social conservatives work so hard to curtail freedoms in this country. Just because they believe something is “immoral” or “sinful” then it should be taken away from other grown adults who might have a different viewpoint or may enjoy what they consider wrong. I would be much more comfortable if these folks got together to complain to one another and seek support in their beliefs in one another — and that was that. Make no mistake, these folks want to curtail the availability of things that they find “immoral” and I vehemently oppose their efforts. It’s scary, y’all … ever stop to think what other things these people might find “immoral” enough that they would like to take away from you? Things on the internet perhaps?
