Chick-Fil-A has become the target of a Democrat-led campaign in support of gay marriage
The relentless war by the left on Christians and biblical values has reached a new and more frightening phase with announcements by Democrat mayors and city officials across the country that they are “banning” fast food restaurant Chick-fil-A from their cities because company president Dan Cathy said unapologetically that he is in "support of the traditional family."
Make no mistake about it; this is much bigger than Dan Cathy and Chick-fil-A.

It doesn’t matter that Chick-Fil-A has not turned away a single customer because that customer was a homosexual. It doesn’t matter that Chick-fil-A has not discriminated in any way against either employees or customers. Democrats want to punish the company, its management and employees because they would not stay silent on the issue of same-sex marriage.It doesn't matter how non-discriminatory you are in practice, if you think the wrong thoughts, you are a criminal.
This isn’t just a jihad against Christians. I am a Jew and my feelings about the homosexual agenda is exactly what the Bible says it should be. Don’t leave us out because we are in this fight the same as any Bible believing Christian.
Knowing that the Left is so seriously anti-Christian, why are Libs always to quick to claim that Obama is a Christian?
This is war. Civil war. It’s on.
Where do these anti-Chick-fil-a hetrophobes stand with the islam anti-gay docterine?
Let the free market decide, because you can not "force" anyone to accept your opinions. If you try, you are doomed to failure.
Because it's part of the cover that they tried to build up specifically for this purpose.
The closing passages of this piece are extremely important:
“The goal of Democrats in the controversy over Dan Cathy’s remarks and Chick-fil-A’s company policies is not to convince a majority of Americans that same-sex marriage is the kind, fair or tolerant position to hold — or even that it is the constitutionally correct policy.
The goal of Democrats is to threaten, bully, coerce and punish millions of Americans into abandoning their Christian beliefs in favor of a soulless secularism with government at its center.
To escape a place where the government told you that to succeed you must reject Christian values or that you must think a certain way is why millions fled to America and the New World.
If Democrats can punish and coerce Dan Cathy and Chick-fil-A into submission on same-sex marriage, where will the attacks on Christians and biblical values end?
It is time for Christians, and others who hold freedom of conscience sacred, to recognize that we must draw the line, make our stand and fight here on this issue because, unlike our ancestors, we have no New World to which we can flee.”
This isn’t just a jihad against Christians. I am a Jew and my feelings about the homosexual agenda is exactly what the Bible says it should be. Don’t leave us out because we are in this fight the same as any Bible believing Christian.
They won’t “go there”, which is totally hypocritical and cowardly of them, which is totally in character.
My guess is, they have to know that Islam professes this anti-homosexual doctrine, that it wars against females, etc. but they don’t care, as long as it doesn’t personally touch their lives or families, associates, friends etc.
What they care about is harming professing Christians.
By the time the jihadists start harming THEM in the name of radical Islam, it will be too late to do anything about it, but they’re too busy bullying and shutting up professing Christians to worry about that now.
All I can do right now is support Chick Fil A by buying their product, and this I intend to do.
I cannot understand this sudden compassion for mentally ill hedonists.
I know that as a young man dating in the late 50’s and 60’s we wanted sex, I was as horny as the next guy, but finding a girl who would perform oral sex was unusual and finding one who would do anal was almost unknown.In fact most men wouldn’t even bring it up. Today these things are considered normal in heterosexual relationships.
My belief is that we have pornography to blame.
When such acts become normal for hetero’s how far a stretch is it to do these same acts with homosexuals.How easy is it for women who refuse these acts with men to start seeking women?
Theories are easy to come up with I suppose,but that is mine.
Attacks on religion, relaxed morals, broken marriages,miscegenation,pornography,they all play a part.
WE dont have Chic-F around here but my bro is in the Maryland area and he said there are lines.good for them.if there was one here I would camp out.
Dan Cathy seems to be guilty of a thought crime. You may not hold an idea that the progressives deem improper.
"And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name." Rev 13:17
You said it. How can anyone doubt the level this has now reached?
For my part, I’m glad that the whole “Chick-Fil-A wars” have reignited the culture wars and brought this agenda out in the open. It’s always best to deal with reality, instead of complacently accepting some whitewashed agenda.
I think there’s a lot of truth in what you say here; really an astute analysis.
Yes, I would agree. Of course people of the Jewish faith such as yourself are also targets. Really, it would make sense if the Muslims were as well, because they are so blatantly opposed to the gay agenda. Of course there is another political ax to grind on the part of Dems there.
“Where do these anti-Chick-fil-a hetrophobes stand with the islam anti-gay docterine?”
Of course we both know that no matter how anti-gay Islam is, they cannot be the targets of liberal Democrats because there is a whole other political agenda there, involving them.
