Homophobic actor (Danso Gordon) asks to leave South of Nowhere
Apparently Danso Gordon, who plays Clay Carlin, has left the show because he feels that the positive portrayal of Spencer's coming out, and the negative portrayal of her conservative Christian mom's efforts to de-gay her, is "morally wrong":

Apparently there's a statement from him on the official South of Nowhere Myspace page:
"Whatup. No, I dont mind you asking me a question, do I want to talk about it much...not really, but since you had the courage to ask here we go. Yes, I will be leaving the show...how, when, I dont know. I am leaving for my own personal reasons that have to do with my Faith and personal integrity. It was a difficult decision to make, however, when someone is involved in something that directly opposes his/her integrity, then that person has to ask themselves why they are doing it. For the money? To make sure they dont offend people? I asked myself these questions and I obviously came to my answer...the show went against my personal Faith and integrity and therefore I made the difficult decision to leave.
I appreciate your kind words (smile) and I also wish you ALL the blessings that God has planned for you in this year! God bless."
