Nicknamed “Jesus chicken” by jaded secular fans and embraced by Evangelical Christians, Chick-fil-A is among only a handful of large American companies with conservative religion built into its corporate ethos. But recently its ethos has run smack into the gay rights movement. A Pennsylvania outlet’s sponsorship of a February marriage seminar by one of that state’s most outspoken groups against homosexuality lit up gay blogs around the country. Students at some universities have also begun trying to get the chain removed from campuses.
“If you’re eating Chick-fil-A, you’re eating anti-gay,” one headline read.

Chicken Chain's Corporate Spine seems to be what's really missing here.

Lol. I guess that 2% of the population that doesn’t deign to eat at Chick-Fil-A anyway are really going to hurt the business! </s>
Look, if Chick-Fil-A was so concerned about money, they would be open on Sundays.
Yup...this gives me all the MORE reason to eat there.
No Chik-Fil-A here in the People’s Republic of Kalifornia...
“A Chicken Chain’s Corporate Ethos Is Questioned by Gay Rights Advocates,”
I question whether sticking a pecker up someone’s back-side is a healthy choice.
I’ve been eating a lot of Chick-Fil-Ay lately. Their sandwiches are good, and their ice cream is out of this world.
I doubt that Truitt Cathy worries much about other peoples opinions of his closing on Sunday.
Not really. Despite what the gay media is saying, if you looks at Chick's press release they did not back down to the gay mafia on this one.
The gays have been trying to smack down anyone that they couldn’t convert for years. They just get their little thongs in a knot when somebody fails to take note of their little temper tantrum. WHO THE HELL CARES. THEY HAVE NO CREDIBILITY!!!
but they just don`t reproduce well
gay gay gay I am so tired of gay being shoved down my throat! Screw the gays! Stand tall chic fil a, we have your back.

I'm hungry ... maybe I'll visit Chick-fil-a.
oops. sorry
To H E double hockey sticks with the gay rights advocates! I have a right to not contribute or accept their attitudes in every little aspect of MY LIFE. No one can expect to be coddled in every business in the country. We have the RIGHT to choose. No one is forcing “Them” to eat at this restaurant, just like they can’t force me not to!
Just when I was wondering what to have for lunch...
Did they or did they not pull their support for the organization that the gay groups were complaining about?
Good. I need to go eat there this week, then.
You know, I thought we had free speech in this country. Can't Chick-fil-A support who they want to support?
