While many were thrilled to hear that the new Beauty and the Beast would include an "exclusively gay moment" between LeFou (Josh Gad) and Gaston (Luke Evans), just as many have voiced their outrage over the fact and their intentions to boycott Disney as a result — including Christian mom blogger Brooke Poston.

In a post earlier this week titled "Disney’s LGBT agenda forced me to cancel our Disney World vacation," the woman behind "This Modest Mom" stated that she would be canceling a trip with her husband and two children to the theme park after hearing the news that the film would be including a LGBTQ scene. (As previously reported, the scene is reportedly "kind of a big dud" and easy to miss.)

"I'm not paying for simple entertainment that doesn't accurately align with my personal beliefs," she wrote. "Disney isn’t just aiming their efforts towards parents of Disney-aged children anymore. They are pointing a desperate finger at the innocence of our youth. Disney is targeting our youth like they’re aiming at big game on a corporate hunting trip. They are banking on corrupting the purity of a child’s mind for the 1%. They are no longer making watching a choice, but by forcing it to become mainstream, Disney is telling the conservative family, the Christian public, that they’re views hold no worth. In jest, they’re subtly encouraging you to conform your ways. (Mark 13:22)"

She went on to voice her concerns that Disney would eventually carry over its "agenda" from the film into its theme parks, something she says she simply couldn't support.

Before long, the post went viral — and while some responded by agreeing with Poston, the majority were quick to express their outrage over her decision to cancel her trip and boycott Disney.

In response, The Huffington Post reached out to the blogger for her response to the criticism she's received, and she offered a lengthy email, which can be read in full here.

There is no denying that the majority of reactions to my post have made me out to be a person filled with hate and disgust," she wrote. "Even through this, my views have not changed."

"Know that whoever you are and however you identify, I have only compassion for you," she continued. "We may not be fighting for the same things, we may not be fighting together, but know that we are each passionate for our own causes. Because of this I cannot be silent."
