Actress Patricia Mauceri has been fired from the ABC soap opera One Life To Live due to her concerns about taking part in a storyline that involved a gay character.

Mauceri reportedly objected to having her character Carlotta Vega support a gay relationship between two male characters on the show because it went against her personal beliefs.

A similar incident happened on the set of The Young & the Restless. Earlier this year, actor Chris Engen walked off the set after the script called for his character to kiss another man.

Mauceri had played Carlotta Vega on the ABC soap since 1995. She has been replaced by actress Saundra Santiago.

What being omitted is that she was to say that God created gays them that way. That was against her belief as a Christian. Way do we omit this fact in the liberal media???
