“The MC told the crowd, “Today, we’re all gay—”

Um, nope. How about, “Today, we are all Americans” ?

Chick-fil-A chose the right path... They’re not doing it for the press... they know the press hates them.

How about, "Today, we are all human beings"?

A lady actually came up to me at the rally and complained about "so-called pro-lifers" who supposedly "stop caring" about people once they're born. A common libel.

I responded that everyone has a right not to be assaulted and murdered, a right to simply go on living: men and women, gay and straight, born and unborn.

Just by virtue of being human beings.

On Sunday, following the bloody massacre at an Orlando nightclub that caters to gays, several nearby locations of the restaurant chain opened its doors to deliver sandwiches and drinks to police and EMTs at the crime scene, and to those donating blood.

That news will be all over ABCNNBCBS, NPR, PTV, NYT, LAT, Journal&Constipation, WA ComPost, Newsweak, Time... < /sarc >

“I thought Chik-Fil-A hated gay people since they’re Christians and all.”

The Enemedia has lied about Christians for so long, and so many have swallowed their lies for so long. (Who is the master of lies?)

Christians have been taught for millennia to love the sinner, hate the sin.

In John 8, Jesus told the adulterous woman he would not condemn her, but also (pay attention here) told her to sin no more.

- The MC told the crowd “Today, we’re all gay— today we’re all LGBT” -

No. Simply, no. Nice try, Mr. MC, but no.

We’re also not all Latino, or wealthy, or adulterers, or senior citizens, or red heads.

It was a gospel witness, that’s the only “benefit” they got.

The coals could be a multiple-meaning or punned illustration. Some scholars see this as a gesture of useful friendship (when fire was hard to strike, people would borrow coals from a neighbor and carry them in an insulated bucket, atop their heads). Some see this as the sense of humility the recipient may experience. Some see this as an analogy to the process of extracting metal from ore. All of these reflect in some way. I don’t think it would mean to literally burn somebody’s head off.

What I believe is it shows that if you treat your enemies as your friends, then they won’t have any reason to hate you any more..................

I think a critical mass of Americans are unavoidably realizing the depth of lying by the MSM/Enemedia, and the national response will be harsh upon them. Finally.

They must have been shamed into covering it.
