Yesterday was dubbed Support Chic-fil-a Day across the US. This was all started because the founder stated that he supports marriage being between a man and a woman, as the Bible states it should be and 2 major city mayors decided they didn't like that and they were going to "ban" the restaurant from their cities.
Here is my issue with the whole thing....it became VERY political. Carson and I ate lunch there yesterday on purpose. Because I support and believe that what the founder said was correct BECAUSE I believe in the Bible and take every word of it for TRUTH. I do not hate gay people, I just don't believe their lifestyle is what God intended. I have friends that are gay and love them just as much as my "straight" friends but they also know my feelings. If you are familiar AT ALL with the Bible, you will know that God befriended the sinners, no matter their sin. Being gay is no different then when I sin by gossiping, lying, or coveting.
I am thrilled that the founder of Chic-fil-a answered a question honestly, instead of conforming to what he thought would be good for business. (BTW - haven't you people noticed that they are all closed on Sundays??? No one called for a boycott because of that.) That is why I chose to go there yesterday...to support a fellow Christian standing up for his beliefs.
There - I just needed to get that off my chest.
