Hahaha....you didn't ruin my day at all. You actually gave me a laugh.

Exactly. We don't have a Chick-fil-A in our area, but if we did I'd go there on the designated day.
If more Christians made a point of patronizing businesses whose owners take biblical positions, we'd have a lot fewer leftists using our money to do bad things.
Other minority groups do a good job of supporting their businesses. That's not a bad thing; freedom of association is an American right.
Traditional Christians are no longer in a majority position in America and it's about time we start acting like a minority under attack. We got into minority status because when we were a **MAJORITY** under attack by a well-organized God-hating minority, we didn't organize ourselves very well.
Not everything in the liberal playbook can or should be emulated by conservatives, but banding together to support counter-cultural businesses and causes and people that support our Christian subculture worked for the left and it can work for us.
At the least, we'll end up with a nice box of tasty chicken. At most, we'll show the leftists that antagonizing conservatives by attacking a conservative business risks waking up a sleeping tiger that has sharp fangs and claws.
Do Chick-fil-A’s owners have a super-PAC yet to start contributing to political candidates who support traditional marriage and get targeted by liberals? If they don't, maybe they should consider it.
Silly me, and busy me...
I thought Chik fil A day was two days ago...
Guess I’ll have to do it again this Wed...
You are absolutely right.
What worked for Ben and Jerry's ice cream can work for conservatives, too. Their environmentalism and support for other liberal causes is worth tens if not hundreds of millions of dollars of free publicity.
I have no problem with liberal customers supporting liberal businesses that support their values. This is America and that is their right.
We as conservatives need to start doing the same.
The nice thing is that if the Chick-fil-A owners get yelled at for being “hateful” and asked “what does chicken have to do with politics,” their response can be, “Hey, they started this fight, not us. All we're doing is self-defense.”

And by the way, this might be a good proof for conservative Christians who think they have to work on the Lord's Day that working six days per week was enough for God and it should be enough for us... ;-) I'd be supporting Chick-fil-A even if they didn't have a biblical position on that issue because homosexuality is an abomination all Christians should fight, but it's nice to see a company that puts principle above profit. Some things are worth losing money over.
damn right I’ve been there the other day and I’ll ve there tommorrow and there after
Notice that the ‘homosexuals’ answer to everything is to commit more perversion? And then they wonder why we don’t want them around (especially around our children)
I didn’t know they actually had them. Really cute.
