“Here’s How Much Money Chick-fil-A Gives To Anti-Gay Groups”

###

Should be “Pro-Family groups”, or at least “anti-pervert groups” or “anti-homosexual groups”.

Gay? Why would they be against happy people?

Article would have us believe that active gay-bashing is the only mission of these groups.

They are Christian groups who happen to believe marriage is between one man and one woman.

How is THAT “anti-gay”?

So? This is America. They can give to anyone they want. What's the big deal?

I'm sure there are institutions who give to homosexual supporting groups.

If you want a homosexual country, support the others. If you want a mom and pop country, support these guys.

It's really quite simple to figure out.

Love walking into a Chick-Fil-A and hearing Christian music playing. Makes me think there is hope for America after all.

Why do they call them “anti-gay” instead of “pro-morality?”

“Gay? Why would they be against happy people?” That was my Plan B option for the first post.

Too greasy for my tastes, but as long as the kids like it, I’ll gladly take them there. And they’re not hurting for business ... ever try to get in the drive thru lane during a lunch rush?

I wonder how long it would take for the degenerates and wicked to start attacking Chick-fil-A. Lord, PLEASE come soon and spare us from the evil that is descending so thickly upon our land!

Doesn't that make pro-gay "anti-hetero?"

Yep. And since pro-lifers are labeled as anti-choice ... that makes pro-choicers anti-life.

Their deserts are awesome with no salt. Just go for the deserts.

Chick-fil-A also gave my daughters their first jobs. All three of them are productive worker bees. While they were still in college, they had a holiday job waiting for them every time they came home for a visit.

The Chick-fil-A where they worked somehow managed to get the nicest kids in town to work for them, and not a single illegal alien. During the combined five years over which my daughters worked for them, you could count on the fingers of one hand the number of kids which got fired. Generally, it was a jag-off who managed to hide their attitude just long enough to get hired. Other than those, it was only kids who consistently failed to show up for work.

One thing I’ve noticed is the gay boycott of Chick-fil-A has been highly successful... for Chick-fil-A.

Their restaurants — all doing a brisk business — have a nice, family-friendly environment.

I eat at Chick-fil-a any time I am near them it seems. The closest one is 2hrs away and the kicker is I am allergic to chicken so I get the salad and ice tea, but my boys enjoy the food and my wife loves it. I am happy to support them for several reasons this being one of them. I also appreciate what they do for the kids that work for them.

They do offer it grilled. Maybe you should consider trying that.

Now that “Dear Leader” has “evolved”, it is a matter of either you push the homosexual agenda 100% or else they’re going to destroy you. Period.

The Chick-fil-A people are Christian people who have, for many years, devoted themselves and their money to Christian causes - children’s homes for one thing (going way back). We have family friends who worked for them for years.

God didn’t approve of homosexual behavior in the Law. He has not changed - magically - just because certain human beings have decided they like it.

Unfortunately, all restaurant food has way too much sodium, IMHO. As fast food goes, however, Chick fil a isn't all that bad in terms of taste and quality. And the employees are dedicated to customer service...as opposed to McDonalds, for example. McDonalds is so bad, they can even screw up a salad. And the employees would rather chat among themselves than wait on you.

True story: Once at McDonalds, I ordered a chicken salad. I specified grilled chicken, not fried. The employee was so busy yapping with her co-worker, she had to ask me twice if I wanted grilled or fried chicken. Finally, the salad arrived, and...you guessed it...the chicken was fried . Never had that problem at Chick fil a. Staff is courteous, helpful and professional. And the food doesn't give me indigestion.
