It all started when president and COO Dan Cathy made statements against gay marriage. and now, things have ramped up into a national debate.
Rev. Billy Graham, the legendary evangelical minister, has now entered the fray, coming to the aid of Chick-fil-A.
The 93-year-old is against gay marriage, and has been strangely polarizing lately. Earlier this year, he publicly endorsed a constitutional amendment to ban it in North Carolina.

Good for Rev. Billy Graham.
If Rev. Graham’s comments are “polarizing,” then I say, good. It’s about time conservatives stop being so tolerant while the opposition tramples on their rights.
Wait until GOD introduces them to HIS version of “polarizing”... as in Heaven and hell.

Business publications that are steering investments away from certain companies because of corporate politics deserve to be open with readers/investors.
That means asking muslim owned Church’s chicken what the owner’s stance on same sex marriage is.
That means informing investors of how much money (including union dues) are being directed towards gay pride parades and gay targeted advertising.
Or is this issue already decided by the lavender mafia?
I live about 3 hours from the nearest Chick-fil-A in Seattle.
I have never been to a Chick-fil-A, but the next time I am close to one I’ll be trying them out.
Unbelievable!
That our news sources and journalists can write: “Against” when such vile unthinkable evils can be “Supported” and endorsed; that which was illegal and shameful in all our nation, and states.
If being right, and seeking righteousness is called “bigoted” and “intolerant” then I and nearly all peoples I know would and will chose righteouness.
Our Saviour and our Lord Jesus said: “Blessed are they which hunger and thirst righteousness: fo they shall be filled.” (Matthew 5:6)
He should stick to business performance and leave political evaluation (that this was “bigotry”) out of his reports.
“strangely polarizing”???
Guess he knows nothing about Billy Graham.
reporter is “abundantly ignorant”
Whoa, Church’s Chicken is Muslim-owned!?
I thought Islam was against artificial sterilization! :-). :-) :-)
It is unbelievable, but consider the source.
This is fag propaganda, written by a fag propagandist.
He/she/it should be fired.
But he/she/it won't be.
It's pathetic.
GOD BLESS THEM and all that stand with them!
Apparently it may no longer be halal (although I suspect some restaurants were bought by observant muslims and may still operate that way http://www.zabihah.com/d/Houston+17856+Churchs-Chicken/)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church’s_Chicken
Church’s was owned by AFC Enterprises, along with Popeyes Chicken & Biscuits and Cinnabon, through the end of 2004, when it was sold to Arcapita (formerly Crescent Capital Investments). Because Arcapita is an Islamic venture capital firm, pork products were removed from the menu after the sale (as pork is not halal) in 2005.[5][6] Also, American Church’s Chicken restaurants switched beverage products to Coca-Cola, while still retaining the Pepsi contract in Canada.
...On August 10, 2009, San Francisco private equity firm Friedman Fleischer & Lowe bought Church’s Chicken from Arcapita.[7]
In some areas, Church’s is co-franchised with the White Castle hamburger chain.[8] In Canada, Church’s Chicken items were once available in Harvey’s restaurants, but the co-venture was discontinued.

Amen & Amen!
Very inciteful, when we say we are for something, they reword it to say we are against something!
Be sure to try their shakes...the best ever...
“Standing up for the word of God is polarizing?”
Well, yes. “Remember when they hate you [for spreading God’s word], they hated Me first.” The word of God has always gone sideways down the throats of unbelievers.
Jesus was also “strangely polarizing”.
