CFA response to anti-gay alleg. "Guilty as charged." Do NOT gloat about eating at CFA

The smartest thing Chick-Fil-A could have done was JUST SHUT UP.

Don't defend it, don't lie about it, just shut up.

When people asked why the Henson toys are not there, they should have said "The issue is due to a supply problem that is out of our control. We do not know if or when the supply problem will be resolved."

Who said she hates gays and who said Chick fil a hated gays? Gosh ya'll like jumping to conclusions. Just because someone believes in traditional marriage does not mean they hate gays.. . GEEZ quit being so sensitive. Beginning to think the gays are the haters.
So now all of a sudden, those who have Christian beliefs are being shamed into having their opinions? Christian people are no longer welcome to address their feelings and beliefs, but everyone else can?!

Not that I should be shocked that the comments are stupid.

Yeah we've only let people beat the shit out of each other and kill each other over Christian beliefs for how long now? You can keep that shit to yourself. I like where were headed in regards to religion not being a measuring stick for morality anymore.

To be fair, christians aren't beating the shit out of anyone in modern society nor is chick fil-a endorsing anything of the sort. I'm neither christian nor gay so I don't have a dog in this fight therefore my opinion is objective.

Not all Christians are on the same page.

Wait, because you aren't getting persecuted nor doing the persecution means you don't give a fuck that people are being oppressed, disenfranchised, and oftentimes subjected to verbal, social and physical violence?

Shit man. I'm not Christian or gay, and this shit makes me fucking livid.
 
I was just forced to have Chik Fil-a (well... out of convenience, which means I'm full of shit), and while I drink my giant soda and feel sickened by fried food I am concluding that going through life without Chik Fil-a is a worthy goal.
 
Hmm I must've missed that huge CNN report about how people are just super fucking pissed. In America, gay marriage is a bigger issue than third world countries being abused by our major coporations.

Oh so you are one of those people that won't outright state you hate gay marriage, but instead go the "we got better things to take care of" route. As if we can only focus on a single thing issue at once.

I don't think that's fair to infer.

Has this been posted? My semi-crazy Christian Facebook friend posted it a little while ago. I'm sure it's damage control, but has it already been proven false yet?

With sites like this Chick-Fil-A doesn't even need a PR chief, other media outlets are ready to do their spin doctoring for them.

Poor guy, totally taken out of context and all. If only someone had thought to just ask him straight out whether he supports gay marriage or not, this could have all been avoided.

What's that? You'd rather hide behind pathetically transparent euphemisms like "biblical definition of the family"? Ok then.

The article even has the quote

"I think we are inviting God’s judgment on our nation when we shake our fist at him and say, ‘We know better than you as to what constitutes a marriage.'"

in it. Yet, somehow, he's talking about the greater space of things? Such a weak fucking argument.

"I feel my own personal beliefs should be adopted by everyone around me, but yo, I don't hate! I just want to impose my beliefs upon them!"

I had a long discussion with a very good friend (who recently became a practicing Christian because of his wife), and he really couldn't give me a good answer to why homosexuals shouldn't get married. He even said to me "Well, because it's a union under God", to which I asked "Well, I'm Hindu by birth. I don't believe in the same God(s) you do. Should I not get married?"

He of course replied "of course you should be married!" Then I asked if I should be allowed to get married if I were gay. I simply said "If I were gay, would you come to my wedding?"

He didn't really have an answer.

Straight,white, christians being persecuted should be the news!

Straight white christians are under attack! (and by under attack, they mean that they have to start accepting people different than them, and that's scaaaary)

I'm neither too and I still think Chick-fil-a are being assholes here. Plus the insinuation you HAVE to be a directly effected to give a crap is a terrible mindset to follow for civil rights, or anything period really.

I admitted I laughed because of how shady she is being
. . . I hate to insult him, but is she turning into Tomonobu Itagaki?
 
So some people are calling the Chick-Fil-A boycotters petty because they refuse to eat there. It's petty to avoid a restaurant because of their views, but it's not petty to go eat there (like the dimwits Santorum and Palin) solely to spite gays?

Hello person who has not read any of this this thread.

The people calling the boycotters petty will not bother commenting on those who eat there solely out of spite.
