I definitely agree.  FreeBSD is currently made up of a very diverse group
of individuals with different social, economic, and political views.  Generally,
we all work well together, and lets avoid anything that would cause
factionalization.  Because of moral and ethical convictions, I am sure that
large groups of people would have to -quit- given certain causes being backed
by the organization.

I agree that this is best being left lone.
