Chick-Fil-A cops to being anti-gay: ‘guilty as charged’ says company president

Fast food chain Chick-Fil-A has been accused of being anti-gay for supporting organizations such as Focus on the Family, which oppose gay marriage.

Company president Dan Cathy said this week that his company is “guilty as charged.”

In an interview with the Baptist Press, Cathy said Chick-Fil-A is “very much supportive of the family - the biblical definition of the family unit. We are a family-owned business, a family-led business, and we are married to our first wives. We give God thanks for that.”

I’ve never tried them before, but I think it’s high time I go in and do just that.

Chick-fil-A has cops, now? I guess those rowdy Christians get a little out of hand in their stores.

Let's not stop with praising Dan. His father, Truett Cathy, the founder of Chick-fil-A, is the man who started the (a) always closed on Sunday, (b) anti-abortion, policies of Chick-fil-A.

Chick-fil-A is a major supporter of Scouting.

My youngest daughter is currently working a shift at Chick-fil-A.

Good for Him. I stand with him in that acceptance is not what we are called to do. Point at Evil and call it out. He has done the right thing, Now Evil will strike at him and many more that speak up. But Gods children know that following our Lord was not going to be an easy thing on this world.

P.S. the long term payoff will be well worth it and maybe just maybe some others will be saved on the way because they heard the Lords words when they many not have before.

Nice to see something good for a change.

Some businesses in Greenwich Village fly gay rainbow flags. Some bigger liberal-run businesses choose to give benefits to homosexual couples. Aren't liberals supposed to be happy for diversity when people express their social viewpoints in business practices?

I can respect an honest liberal, where they can be found. But something’s seriously wrong with liberal hypocrisy.
