baddog, you said : "I have a mainstream business installing telephone systems and computer networks. A few years ago I had a job to install a system for some photocopy business.
While in there, rummaging through their storage closets I happened upon literally tons of anti-abortion, right to life literature. I then started paying attention to the their side of conversations they were involved in on the phone. These people were major players in the right to life movement on the national level, by anyones standards. I found it amazing that everyone there was male. I bit my tongue and finished up the job."
it sounds to me like it was a little more than just a photocopy company.
What I'm saying I guess, is no I don't think there is a difference between taking money from someone whos's political beliefs you oppose and giving them money to spread their beliefs because if you give them money you are helping them, if you take money from them it will most likely be for some type of work you have done for them which is then helping them spread thier message.
in your case you installed some phones/network in their company that will help them spread their message and you took their money for doing so. How is that different then if you would have just given them the money to have the job done?
It's a big issue when it comes down to it. If a person doesn't shop a certain store because they don't agree with the store owners beliefs then where do you draw the line? Do you now have to look into every store you shop at to make sure you agree with them? If not do you risk looking like a hypocrite? anyway, the questions are many and vast and could take up a thread long enough to win a friggin leather jacket
