ok doing some poking around, this Shane Windmeyer guy is real and is head of Campus Pride a gay rights advocacy group.

It is also true he IS spending time with Dan Cathy and they ARE friends now.

After reading this article, I get even more proof Dan Cathy caved in.

He bent over backwards to provide Windmeyer IRS documents to prove Chick-FIL-A is no longer providing funding of the most divisive anti-gay and lesbian groups. Why was Dan Cathy giving this fool any concessions or promises to not give to certain anti-gay groups? That IS the very definition of a cave in! Someone should have told this gay dude to pound sand!

Even Shane Windmeyer himself was dumbfounded about Dan Cathy inviting Shane to the Chick-FIL-A bowl last year with the rationale (and correctly by the way) that conservative groups would not like this at all and may boycott because of this.

As Dan and I grew through mutual dialogue and respect, he invited me to be his personal guest on New Year's Eve at the Chick-fil-A Bowl. This was an event that Campus Pride and others had planned to protest. Had I been played? Seduced into his billionaire's life? No. It was Dan who took a great risk in inviting me: He stood to face the ire of his conservative base (and a potential boycott) by being seen or photographed with an LGBT activist. He could have been portrayed as "caving to the gay agenda" by welcoming me.

To all of the naysayers on here defending Dan Cathy or arguing he wasn't backing down on his anti-gay stance, what do you say now? Is that article I linked to by Shane Windmeyer ALSO a ministry of propaganda? Is the picture of Shane Windmeyer and Dan Cathy photoshopped? I don't think so.

So? Jesus dined with tax collectors. — the most hated, venal, despicable men of their time.

I prefer the Jesus model.

And Jesus tells me, you still need rest.

And your point is? Where is the quote verbatim by Mr. Cathy that he hates homosexuals? Please post it.
