Chic Fil A helping out

[Maistre Gracey]

Again they are opposed to gay marriage

So what? Can't Christians have a belief?

Yeah, I thought it had a chance. I don't mind talking and disagreeing, I think that is actually better than everyone always agreeing. It's good to see others' points of views. I just hope it doesn't get out of control.

I agree somewhat, but I have no doubt this will get out of control. No doubt at all...

Yes anyone can. It's just some people find some beliefs to be very behind the times and bigoted they have their rights to say what they feel as do I and I believe this was a tax right off PR stunt

 

[JaneBanks]

What bigoted policies?

MG

Please expound...

MG

Didn't see this bait coming from a mile away...

You (or someone here) was calling his beliefs "wrong". I find that extremely intolerant toward the Christian beliefs.

I am ALL FOR exercising personal ethics in the marketplace. I believe anybody that has an issue with the stance of the Chik-Fil-A guy should not patronize the company or work there. I just hope that anyone speaking critically about their gesture of support for the victims of this terrible crime are also doing something equally supportive from their own personal resources. For that matter, it's Ramadan right now and apparently many give their annual Zakat (alms) during this time. I hope to hear of many outspoken representatives of the Muslim community showing leadership by directing their giving to this cause also.

No good deed goes unpunished.

No chance at all..

There is one Mulsim man calling for all who are able to donate blood. He donated himself even though he is fasting. On the podcast today it was brought up that the Muslim community has raised at least 40K.

It is nice that everyone is stepping up and helping out the city.

Honestly, stepping up and reaching out is the right thing to do...don't care WHO you are. JMO

It's not a Christian view, as there are many MANY Christians who do not hold the same belief. It's just a hateful one.

A company that adheres to its core values... Closes on Sunday's because that is the day for Christians to observe and be with family, opens their doors WITHOUT a media announcement to give free food to blood doners and first responders.
You insinuate they are poisoning the food given to gay people.

Shame on you.

Nope. Hateful is your opinion.

It was definitely the right thing to do and I don't believe there was any ulterior motive.
