It is presumed you don’t know.
You know, if you do not have to presume because they make their beliefs well known, what’s the harm? There is a doughnut shop that is run by some good parishoners we patronize regularly, probably every month or two. As far as supporting Chick-fil-a for one day, I see no harm in that. For those with weight issues that still want to show support, they really do have some good choices.
This article is dated today, 7/30. It’s already been established that what those men said previously would be illegal, but the Catholic League is still cranking this hurdy-gurdy?
Raise your hand if you’re in favor of polarizing people.
It’s amazing how obvious it becomes, just by reading this thread, who are the hot, and who are the cold.

The issue of homosexual marriage is a non-negotiable.Is there not anything more important to Catholics than Chick-Fil-A? Abortion, maybe? The five non-negotiables? Anything???
Or is Chick-Fil-A the new non-negotiable?
Disagreeing does not exactly equal being hateful.It’s PC to be hateful, petty and vindictive in this country, now.
I fear that our beautiful nation is in for some horrible times. Very horrible times, indeed.
Not what I said - which was, “is Chick-Fil-A the new non-negotiable?”
I prefer my Catholic faith hot. I understand Christ’s lament. I want to vomit when I read posts by people who “self-identify” as Catholic, but their posts identify them as anything but. Thanks to Mellow for raising the matter.
But, 780 mg of sodium. He could do still better by grilling the chicken at home and going easy on the salt.
So we can either stick to the topic or follow you down whatever rabbit hole you have in mind.Not what I said - which was, “is Chick-Fil-A the new non-negotiable?”
Tell you what.
I don’t know the Fil-A family personally, but if they have been knowingly willing to forgo 1/7 of their income due to religious reasons, and knowing the climate is not particularly Christian-friendly, I doubt they care if it has an adverse effect on business. Now if Chic Fil-A becomes a huge proponent of the gay-pride movement, I’d be quite shocked.
That may be true about the Coors Brewing Company, but the conservative Adolph Coors Foundation is still around along with the Castle Rock Foundation it founded.
Ahh, don’t you love relativism? If Muslims call for violent acts to be committed against gays, it’s okay, as it’s their religious freedom. But if anyone else wants to simply say “hey, we think marriage shouldn’t be redefined” then they’re considered like Nazis.Wow!
Mark Steyn puts the whole issue into perspective, regarding Boston mayor Tom Merino’s accompanying announcement:

Oh, it’s not just so-called “leftists”. Have you heard of Grover Norquist? Michael Bloomberg? The New Jersey governor? They support the same nonsense, and even receive money from the people quoted in the Steyn article. Do you think Romney would have opposed giving money to that mosque where they preach hate and violence? Of course not.
Exactly.
I vote “YES”, you should frequent these bar and grills to show your support. In light of your plea to “moderation”, just limit yourself to one shot of Jamison’s at each.
Developments like these show where such business owners’ loyalties truly lie: money. They were never ardent supporters of anything other than their own wallet. They only played the “anti-gay” card to drum-up business. They found that they got more business by supporting the “pro-gay”. Lesson learned. It was never about principle for these clowns.
Possibly, but then, it’s an issue that you made up, not one I raised. Now, why don’t we ask why you raised this issue? Better yet, would you have raised it if the Cathys were l-----ls? If they didn’t lead people to a true Christ, but instead, some sort of l-----l, false, wildeyed Christ, that preached a gospel of hot, steamy, illicet sex for all, no holds barred, and no penalties, would you still need those hard numbers?
Correct. I never stated that hard numbers were available.
Correct again. Why would you state the obvious? I never stated anything to the contrary.Non-Catholic Christians have been Christians way before Lumen Gentium.
