Baylor appears to not like the cups but the money that Starbucks pays them for their retail location they appear to like.
Do you agree with Baylor still taking starbucks money to be able to sell in that location? One would think that a Christian school would not want a company that supports gays to be based on campus.
Apparently he has never heard of burning books because their content was false, misleading, deceptive, and extremely dangerous. I wonder if he would approve of racist, sexist, or "homophobic" quotations on Starbucks cups.
I had my first Pumpkin Spice Latte today for lunch. It was yummy.
My all time fave though, is the peppermint mocha usually available in January here. It's better than a man!
I don't know if there is Chic-Fil-A near Baylor or not. Do they have Bible verses on their cups? We don't have one in my locale.
Um. I'll have to take your word for it. =)
---- Yes, gay is genetic, but gender roles are learned. So goes the 'logic' anyway! ----
Hmmmm... you seem certain yet I have never seen any unbiased proof of such a claim. (re: genetic)
I suspect you left off the </sarcasm>
"“My only regret about being gay is that I repressed it for so long. I surrendered my youth to the people I feared when I could have been out there loving someone. Don't make that mistake yourself. Life's too damn short.” "
And gets shorter with AIDS.
If God wanted us to sodomize each other, he wouldn't have made women so appealing.
Sorry - thought the sarcasm was implied!
no, this is free market in action.
The $$$ rules.
There is 100% right to put ecconomic pressure on a corporation to not promote a sexual BEHAVIOR.
The two have nothing in common.
This is no different than Ruth Ginsberg advocating the age of consent of 12.
note how the MSM article implies "growing up homosexual" as a means of pushing the LIE that homosexuality is a born trait.
Grape Juice
The guy is right about one think, life is very short for homosexuals. They usually last 50 years or less. I think the average was somewhere in the forties. Amen.
Took it home, brewed a pot, and as soon as I took a sip said to myself "darn." It was not just better than the rest, it was great.
I did the same thing but found that 8 O'clock whole bean still as good as or better than Starbucks. I grind ours fresh daily.
LOL!!! Post of the day. Wonder what Bob Jones University is doing with the mugs? I think they just put in a Starbucks this year or last.
Actually, there is more than "ZERO" evidence of a genetic factor in homosexuality (e.g. twin studies and others), but even leaving that aside, you have a false dichotomy there -- there are far more possibilities than just a) genetics or b) molestation, so it's not the case that we "must" assume (b) in the alleged absense of (a). For example, homosexuality could be caused by a non-genetic birth defect, or developmental errors, or any of a number of other possibilities which would be neither genetic nor involve molestation.
As with most things in biology, though, there's likely to be not "one" cause, but instead several contributing factors which can be present in greater or lesser amounts in different specific cases.
I often visit friends who use 8 o'clock. Good, but not as good as Starbucks, IMHO.
