Star Parker: Chick-fil-A protest could set back gay activism
ocregister.com ^ | 7/28/2012 | Star Parker

The current hate campaign being waged by homosexual activists against fast food chain Chick-fil-A, because of the firm's Christian values, may well turn out to be a bridge too far. The effort may prove to be a setback for homosexual activism.

The vile attacks on the firm and its owners, the Cathy family, should make clear, finally, that the "gay rights" movement is not about refining and advancing American freedom, but about rewriting American values and advancing, not freedom, but the homosexual political agenda.

--snip--

When Chick-fil-A CEO Dan Cathy made his now famous incendiary admission that "we are very much supportive of the family – the biblical definition of the family unit," he was not pontificating. He was responding to a question in an interview done in a paper I expect is not read by many homosexuals – the Baptist Press.

Never mind. It was sufficient provocation that Cathy publicly admitted that the Bible defines his understanding of marriage – the unique bond of man and woman – which also happens to be the standard definition in dictionaries on the shelves of every American home and library.

Sorry, your friends didn’t get “married,” they entered into a domestic partnership. Don’t confuse the two. Holy matrimony is a covenant between a man and a woman before God. A domestic partnership is between the “couple” and the state.

Doesn’t matter. The fact is that conservatives are cowards about the issue and won’t make a peep because Adelson is the big money behind Romney.

Coward conservatives are no better than the democrats and are every bit as responsible for the mess America is.

“Doesn’t matter.”

It does matter because homosexuals can’t be “married” in Nevada, they can only enter into domestic partnerships. I think Orwell’s novel “1984” showed us what happens when language is changed. It also seems a bit of a jump and defeatist to equate what is a grass roots movement of true conservatives with Rhino-e’s that support Romney. Things like this and the TEA Party can, have, and will continue to send a message.

What matters to me is the cowardice of the conservatives who claim to fight against it while getting down on their knees for another who supports it.
