Anne Rice spoke out in support of Ellen Page coming out and will not tolerate hate on her fan page. Anne's son is gay and she has been very supportive of gay rights. She warns if anyone posts hate on her page they will be deleted.
I will no longer tolerate hate speech in the guise of Christian belief with the usual irresponsible pick and choose bible quotes and talk of “sin” and hellfire. I have had enough of it, and I think the world has had enough of it too. I commend Ellen Page for her bravery in coming out. I hope more celebrities and public figures will be inspired to do so. Anyone who thinks this does not matter is deceiving himself or herself. It matters very much. Gay people in all walks of life suffer from bigotry, bias, superstition, and ignorance.
