When conservatives across the country raised over $800,000 to support Indiana business owners of Memories Pizza, who decided not to serve gay weddings, pro-LGBT activists fired back with crowdfunding campaigns of their own. Over the weekend, Youtube star Philip DeFranco launched an initiative, flavored with a healthy dose of sarcasm, to raise funds for the Human Rights Campaign Foundation in the name of his new “Big Gay Religion.” His campaign has already raised over $16,000.

“If being gay is part of a religion, you could hypothetically in the future be considered a protected class, since being a human being apparently isn’t enough,” DeFranco explains his rationale for starting a new parody cult. “Our religion tells us that all people should be gay. If you’re not gay don’t worry. Our God is very forgiving and understands we are all his creations…Also, I’ll have more information on this completely real religion soon. I have some mystical texts to go find.”

DeFranco isn’t the only one to launch a counter-campaign this weekend. Similar crowd funding campaigns for Planting Peace, which serves homeless LGBT youth in Indiana, and the Indiana Youth Group have already raised over $10,000 each. All three of these campaigns encourage people to support activists instead of trolling Memories Pizza.
