Williams, who attended exclusive Santa Fe Christian School in San Diego, California, has been blasted by the school's headmaster as "offensive" for acting the long-suffering wife of a homosexual ranch hand, played by [A href="vny!://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005132/"]Heath Ledger[/A]. Jim Hopson has branded the Oscar nominee a poor role model, and hopes his education establishment won't be linked to the film's themes.

Ugh, kooks are out in force.
Yeah this is the same guy who played an AC/DC album backwards, yadda yadda.
Next the f*cker will be fundraising.

I bet this guy has a call girl on the side.
The funny thing is, you can be accepting of people without being a bigot. Everyone knows I'm a big pierre trudeau guy. Then I was stunned to read that he never missed a sunday mass in his life and that he broke up with a girlfriend when he was a teen because she was becoming too agnostic. Its time for religious people to realise the seperation of church and state.
Oficial Ruling: Headmaster Jim Hopson is a bigoted a**hole. Case closed.
"and hopes his education establishment won't be linked to the film's themes. He tells the San Diego Union Tribune, "We don't want to have anything to do with her in relation to that movie."
Funny thing is he probably wouldn't have been linked if he's just kept his fat, bigotted mouth shut. Did anyone know she'd gone to this school before he started his diatribe?
Methinks the bigot is doing somne grandstanding.
It's a good commercial for his school to draw more closed-minded bigots to enrol. He wants the publicity.......money, honey.
More un-Christian behavior, by a Christian....hmm. How can such intolerant people be in the role of teaching tolerance, acceptance and understanding. Is it any wonder that intolerance is on the uprise in a supposedly enlightened time. Why would they 'turn their back' when they are supposed to be teaching, turn the other cheek
Why don't they simply go back to teaching The Golden Rule. It encompasses everything that religious schools seem to have forgotten.
