Of course. It is the height of pride, arrogance, and hubris to DEMAND that a human being abandon his own conscience and convictions. There is something very evil about this whole stance toward Chick-Fil-A.

Yep. I also understand that whether they’re “pitcher” or “catcher”
makes a difference, in their minds. If the former, they don’t consider themselves homos.

I asked my daughter why she wanted to keep people from seeking out treatment if they wanted it. I pointed out that many people think alchoholism has a genetic component, and that people like to drink, and people should be allowed to drink if they want, but some people DECIDE they don’t want to drink, and look for help.

I asked why a person who felt attracted to men, but didn’t want to be that way, shouldn’t have the right to get help overcoming that attraction, or at least controlling it.

I then said it seemed gay people were happy to force “confused” kids to be taught all about being gay, “just in case”, but wanted to force people who thought they might be gay to remain that way, whether they wanted to be or not.

I also pointed out to her that Chick-Fil-A supports organizations which do many good things for people, ONE of which is to SUPPORT traditional marriage. Note that they aren’t really trying to “ban” same-sex marriage; same-sex marriage is currently illegal in almost every place, and they are trying to maintain the status quo.

If you were wondering what Van Jones does with his time since being exposed by Glenn Beck, this is it.

He scours the countryside for the soft underbelly of corporate targets who might be vulnerable to such pressure tactics. If Chick-Fil-A has such a big presence on college campi, this one could really heart.

It’s what makes Jones so valuable to the Leftist machine.

And isn't it something that whereas Christians will pray for the homosexual sinner, Muslims cut their heads off. I wish someone had the guts to shove their hypocrisy in their faces repeatedly and force them to address it. Just keep hammering them until they answer, if they can, or have to admit their double standard amd hatred of Christianity.

Skulls full of mush proving once and for all that the colleges consist of 100% useful idiots.

Not much of a surprise at Minnesota State University (I did my graduate work there). This is the same university that used student funds a few years ago to put Muslim foot baths into the Student Union building restrooms.

Yes, and that episode where Luther Van Damme mistook it for a bidet was just hilarious!

Maybe all these universities and colleges should ask their tolerant Muslim Student Association their opinion on homosexual and homsexual marriage.

I am praying for Mr Cathey to be strong and not cave on this, no matter what, like every almost every other non-pro-homosexual agenda public figure has, under the weight of unrelenting homosexual lobby harassment.

“There is something very evil about this whole stance toward Chick-Fil-A.”

Yes and it seems Chick-Fil-A has struck a nerve, and Satan appears to be really upset. There is no way to explain the influence that 2 percent of the population has had on the downfall of our culture without thinking that Satan himself is behind them.

You have to understand the liberal (idiot) definition of a hate group.

Do they agree with the liberal point of view? No? Then it is a hate group.

See how easy that is?

While your correct.. It’s no place to run your business.

It is where you go to save souls.. Not sell chicken if they don’t agree with you.

I love chick-fil-a...

I have to wade through flaming libs and their BS to get there.

I do it because their food is good. However, once they open a store that is not in the center of the liberal meca.. I won’t ever visit that store again.

Rather than have professional gay activist run this topic, why not have a vote. Have Student Government run an 'election'. Yes (it stays) No. ( It goes) Yep, when it turns out 98% of students WANT Chick-fil-A and 2% don't... we'll know the truth.

The unfair advantage the 2% have is the press is with them... time to get real on this topic.

Chick and other businesses can retaliate. If politics determine where businesses can exist, then businesses can tell the students and universities, politics of the student applying or the school they graduate from, can determine if they can be hired. In a recession, students are more vulnerable financially to argue with a company looking for employees. So a student better think, risk future employment or shoot off his big mouth. Lesson one in life, if you go after someone’s livelihood he will go after yours.

Last week, a media firestorm erupted when it was revealed that Chick-fil-A President Dan Cathy...

Gays are 2% of the population. Gays are what percentage of a the average newsroom?? Twenty percent - MUCH higher than 2%. And conservatives? Fifty percent of the population - and less than 1% of an average newsroom?

Now the 'firestorm erupted' comment makes more sense.

Hey New York Times - this is why you're losing money...

“This is just an outgrowth of the persistent pro-homosexual agenda being foisted on the kids in our elementary and high schools.”

Bingo. They were raised for this moment, groomed for it.

Right, all that is outside the lib agenda qualifies as "Hate".
