Businesses like Chick Fil-A have to be boycotted

But it doesn't taste of anything.

 

EOE?

 

What is hateful is that you want to control what others eat, apparently because you don't like their religion. It isn't any of your business where others choose to spend their money, nor is it your business if they choose to be closed on Sunday. Your "separation of church and business" idea makes no sense. You obviously have the lines blurred between the government and private enterprise.

 

Texture and taste are different things.

 

Chik-Fila is "government"?

Nobody guarantees anybody freedom FROM religion. Ones desire to not be religious does not prevent anybody else from displaying their faith and beliefs. That is part of their rights.

LOL. Because private business are government owned? I own a business, that I started with my own risk, my own investment, my own sweat blood and tears. Who the hell are you to tell me that I need to suppress MY beliefs in MY business in order to protect you?

I am not even a religious person, but the Progressive Cult is far more ridiculous than the religious one. You prove this.

Your rights end at the tip of the nose of the rights protected by others, including the right to freedom of speech and religious freedom. Maybe everybody gave you a trophy when you were a kid, but your opinions really don't trump everybody else's rights.

Not everybody is a progressive liberal either, but we let them say all kinds of stupid **** because it's protected.

OMG! Somebody said "Merry Christmas" and hurt my snowflake feelings because I am not religious.

Instead of being an adult and responding with "Happy Holidays" or "Happy Hanukkah" or something else, you desire to eliminate freedom of speech for everybody else to comply with YOUR feelings.

You are the epitome of what is wrong with Progressive Liberals.

 

This violates the establishment clause.

 

Breast is rubbish. Dry and flavourless. Asians don't use it separately for that reason.

 

Chick Fila-A , as any business has a right to close any day they want to. Starbucks is a big proponent and donator to Planned Parenthood and Abortion. You gonna boycott them too?....or do you just direct your hate toward Christians. (You may want to boycott In and Out also)......they have the best fast food in the world and they are Christian.

 

I am not in favor of secularists....but I am not so stupid I won't use their products or service if it is of benefit to me.

 

You can eat fattening food if you don't sit on your a## all day.

 

Sure, but water doesn't taste of anything, but you drink it, but you don't eat chicken breast. So it would seem that your problem is purely with the texture, not the tastelessness.

 

What do you mean they "don't use it separately?"

 

I mean they cut up a chicken in cross section, they don't separate the breast (not favouring it due to flavourless-ness and dryness). They prefer bone and dark meat, so cutting in cross section means everyone gets a piece of bone and dark meat.

 

Equal Opportunity Employer.

 

I rather educate people on the dangers of fast food and eating with a conscience than simply spew hatred. How many people that clog up the drive thru at CFA actually know about the distasteful donating over the years the restaurant chain has done? If anything, they are unaware of the facts and think its simply drama over a Christian-based enterprise. So aside from putting something unhealthy (and the fact its the exact same chicken sandwich you can get at other chains) in your body, there's the utter lack of public knowledge aside from those like myself who have done due diligence on the issue.

You can have your beliefs, just keep them out of business unless you're opening some sort of religious institution or a store that sells exclusively religious paraphernalia. Private enterprise is meant to be fully secular, unless its what I just stated. For the very reason not everyone is a practicing Christian or Catholic.

 

There was obviously an issue with prayer in public schools, why? It goes back to the fact not everyone is Christian. That's why religious freedom is, at best, a misnomer in this country. It's not intended to empower Muslims or Jews the same way its sold by pundits to empower Christians. Simply closing on Sunday's isn't pushing a religious belief, its when you have a history of donating to organizations that champion gay conversion therapy like Exodus International that it becomes clear you're pushing beliefs that shun another community. Chick Fil-A is going to have to demonstrate an equally rich track record of not donating to these organizations before their word can be taken seriously.

It's not being a snowflake or immature in general to point out a store's insensitivity to all religions in this country when all it plays is Christmas music, not holiday music shared in other religions, and only says "Merry Christmas." You would think corporate America would see this as a problem. Let's say you own your business in a prominent Jewish community in Florida. Are you going to alienate a large chunk of your community simply because you are Christian? It's actually advocating for inclusion, because you're not celebrating one religious holiday in particular. You want to donate to the homeless, great. Just don't invite the Salvation Army. Be as secular as possible during the holiday, not Christmas, season.

I can't see what's problematic with that. I'm not saying a Christian can't shop there, I rather take the opportunity as a business owner to recognize all religions, not just one because of Jesus Christ. It's my hope our country can reach a point that it is secular in general, because the Judeo-Christian approach is what is creating problems.

 

Because government should not endorse any religion. A theocracy is never desired.

Since public schools are funded with involuntary taxes, and as an institution of government, it should refrain from endorsing any religion.

Now... if a group of students elects to pray together, wear clothes directing their faith, or talk about God in a commencement speech, that shouldn't be an issue.

Other students do not have the right to be free from religion as that would impose on the rights of the faithful.

Yeah.. that's exactly NOT what the intent of separation of church and state intended.

It had nothing to do with equality nor protecting feelings.

Absolutely it is. Snowflakes expect that everybody else adjust their behavior, suppress their beliefs, and walk on eggshells to preserve delicate snowflakes feelings.

That is NOT why we have separation of church and state. You don't like somebody else's business music... don't go their.

Absolutely I do. You are in support of a theocracy, with the powerful religion being progressivism. And you expect our government to rule in alignment with your views.

Ironically, you are precisely the reason the separation exists.

That decision should be up to the business owner. Not you. Not the prospective customers, and certainly not government.

Why should people of faith, be secular, to appease your desire for inclusivity?


I can't see

Well, that's because you're a snowflake and we're raised that way.

Ok.

Let's see how this goes.

Should bar's in boystown and gay neighborhoods not display the rainbow flag out of respect and inclusivity to straight couples?

Get ready for some hypocrisy.

 

What's your problem with that law?

What do you mean a "legal crutch?"

Why wouldn't you be surprised? And why would asking about a higher power result in an applicant mentioning that they are gay?

 

We are a Christian country and all are welcome that is legal.

 

We are not a Christian country.

 

Oh really, says who?

So now you going to post revisionist history that muslims founded America?

 

The US constitution says.
The founding fathers said.

Who do you believe says we are a Christian nation?

 

We are a country that is overwhelmingly inhabited by citizens who identify as Christian.

Or government doesn't endorse the majority faith, but in fact that doesn't change the fact that majority of people share the same view.

 

Which is more accurate than “we are a Christian country” although I will disagree that 65% [link] of a population is an overwhelming majority. Most English language experts agree that a figure has to be 70%+ to be classified as a overwhelming majority.

Correct, which does not make us a Christian nation but rather a nation inhabited by mostly Christians.
Looking at population and religious affiliation trends this will be true for about the next two decades.

 

Chick Fil A has become the top fast food restaurant without support from the radical left. It will continue to succeed.

I see nothing wrong with boycotting. I’ve never bought Ben & Jerry’s ice cream because of their harmful public policy positions. But here’s where the left and I disagree: I’ve never sought the destruction of Ben & Jerry’s. Whereas the left seeks to ruin and silence Chick Fil A.
