The Berenstain family wrote on its web site that it did not know about the controversy surrounding Chick-Fil-A and gay marriage until July 25.
Comments by the CEO of the fast food chain Chick-fil-A opposing same-sex marriage continued to reverberate for a second week, drawing the beloved children’s book figures the Berenstain Bears into the controversy.

Time for parents to boycott Henson and the Berenstain Bears. There’s too many perverts out there trying to ram rod this trash down the throats of young children.
Did Ellen herself say that?
This makes no sense. The Berenstains (at least the actual creators of the Bears) were Christians. What is going on?

I think what really caused it was the statement a paragraph later in the speech where he said something to the effect of “we are inviting God’s judgement on our nation if we attempt to tell God we know better than Him what constitutes marriage.”
The Berenstain Bears by Stan & Jan were among my daughter’s favorite books growing up. I’m sure their son is on the right path.
There were decent pro-life, pro-God, pro-family traits in their books. I recall one about the “Birds and the Bees” that sent such a positive, beautiful message about the holy triad of mother-father-and-child in nature.
I’m sorry if that term seems blasphemous to some, but on this material earth, family is sacred and should be seen as such.
I’m calling you a troll. I’m a lurker who occasionally goes on rants but nothing like what you say. I’ve looked through your comments and they give the impression of a caricature of what a liberal thinks a crazy social conservative is.
If I am wrong, and you are sincere, I apologize. But your rhetoric...
Remember before posting: loose lips sink ships.
Already planning on taking the family to Chick-Fil-a tomorrow to support the cause. I’m thinking about buying a handful of gift cards to hand out to people in uniform when I’m at the airport.
You would be wrong. My conservative credentials are strong.
And while almost everyone here rants, my rants are sound.
Okely-Dokely.
You would be wrong. My conservative credentials are strong.

“Some have opposed the companys support of the traditional family. Well, guilty as charged, said Cathy when asked about this opposition.
We are very much supportive of the family the biblical definition of the family unit. We are a family-owned business, a family-led business, and we are married to our first wives. We give God thanks for that.”
*Oh my, my ears are burnin’!*
Geesh, this is what constitutes hateful speech?
What a bunch of weenies. We’re even dumbing down “insult”.
(BTW, I still haven’t seen the quotations from the father, or whatever he is - the old man in his 80s+.)
What speech? I thought this was an interview. Where are these “judgement” comments? (Not that I care that much if that’s all he said, but the more accurate and complete info, the better.)
Godspeed, sister. The “Chronicles of Narnia” books made for great bedtime reading in my house.
ESQUIRE WROTE You can get a chicken sandwich anywhere, which may explain your low expectations. Boneless breast. Bun. Blah. But down south, there lives an eye-opener.
A come-to-Jesus sandwich.
The Chick-fil-A. Seasoned, breaded breast served on a toasted buttered bun with dill-pickle slices. No mayo. No sauce at all. Deceptively simple, yet transcendent. The hook is the breading: spicy, with an intoxicating crunch. The meat is always juicy, never chewy. The bun is like lingerie -- there, but not, providing delicious support without obscuring the main flavor. The first bite changes everything you think you know about chicken. And about the need for condiments. --Allison Glock

Just order a deluxe w/ lettuce, tomato and slice of
cheese, with a side of waffle fries and large lemonade.
Couple containers of the special sauce and you got lunch.
Chick Fil-a Deluxe---with frilly lettuce leaf, cheese slice, and red ripe tomatoes.
Too advanced for a toddler! I don’t think those are really applicable until school years.
You can google it as easy as I can. Just google “Chick Fil a marriage comments full context”. will probably work.
It may have been an interview, not sure.
