    Glad you cleared that up. So basically, you're a hypocrite: you're going to rag on Chick-Fil-A 's CEO for merely giving financial support to organizations that are only against the gay lifestyle and gay marriage (while not discriminating against gays who work for him or gay customers), but you're going to be silent on entire religions and governments (usually one and the same) that not only are against gays but gladly kill or imprison them -- along with their historical discrimination against women.

    If we want to go the God's wrath route, God is angrier at heterosexuals destroying marriage by their actions more than he is angry at people tring legalize same-sex marriage.

    The only trouble with your post is that none of it is true.

    Well of course you say so. That enables you to avoid the perspective you're so sorely lacking.

    Glad to see all the conservatives boycotting Amazon now that Jeff Bezos has donated $2.5 million to support gay marriage.

    Wait, they are continuing to support gay marriage by buying things from Amazon?

    The white American celibate Christian is much more virtuous.

    These guys might fit your bill.

    Would it be wrong of me to point out that the perceived position on gay marriage as voiced by Dan Cathy was exactly the same as President Obama's official position before he reversed himself this spring, and the position of a lot of Democratic politicians?

    This isn't the "hijacking of a political party by a movement to deny others rights." That two men or two women weren't allowed to marry wasn't even an issue for the first 220 years of our republic, and even in the 2000s was the stated or implied position of both major political parties.

    In my state, the only governor candidate who supports gay marriage is the libertarian (who, by the way, I'm supporting politically). So, I guess in Indiana, both major parties have been hijacked by that small group.

    There for a while, there was a company that was connecting corporations with chaplains. It was found to be an employee benefit to have someone onsite they could go to with personal issues, marital counseling, etc.

    Say what you want about the company but they've been rated off and on as one of the top companies employee-wise to work for. Which says a lot about a fast food entity.

    Strangely enough (and feel free to roll your eyes anyways, since this is related to pro wrestling), there was a pro wrestling promotion in the 1970s and 80s in Texas called World Class Championship Wrestling. They were very successful in the early to mid-80s.

    Not only were they televised on one of the Christian Broadcasting channels, but at one point in the late 80s, they had an official chaplain, who, during the broadcast, while wrestlers were pretending to beat each other up in the ring, would come on and praise God and the owner of the promotion. Not necessarily in that order.
