Thats why I asked the OP where he lives.
There were no long lines at the Chick-fil-a down here on the way to my work - I looked both on the way to and the way home.
Chances are that Chick-fil-a lines are longer in the south where this kind of thinking is the norm.
I haven't seen anything that shows there are long lines accept a couple people who responded who both live in the south and then one article out of Atlanta.
There are several areas on the east coast that will never allow a chick-fil-a to even be built because of their stance. Boston's mayor already took such action. Seems like a large area of business that they are missing out on
Rahm never said they were banned, he simply agreed with ONE alderman in ONE ward's decision. I don't understand how that vow of support turned into Rahm banning Chick-Fil-A entirely from Chicago. It makes a better story I guess, but that doesn't make it true.
He said Chik Fil A's values are not Chicago values. Bad move. Just about any religious or conservative person in Chicago is offended.
They were all there for the new Queer Hatin' Cordon Bleu

The NIV Study Bible notes,6 “Noah’s curse cannot be used to justify the enslavement of blacks, since most of Ham’s descendants are known to be Caucasian, as the Canaanites certainly were (as shown by ancient paintings of the Canaanites discovered in Egypt).” We conclude that Genesis provides no biblical basis, either ethically or prophetically, to justify black slavery.
Furthermore.. read my post above about context.. not just for passages, but for books and the Bible overall.

You are a very large part of what is wrong with this country and I wish you would dig a big hole and climb into it.
You have no dog in this fight since it is a Christian viewpoint, so please leave.
What you and many seem to miss in this whole discussion is that government has no right to deny them permission to locate their restaurants anyplace where it is legally zoned for them...
There will NEVER be complete equality, that would be physically IMPOSSIBLE.

A man and a woman together can create a baby.
Two gay men together cannot create a baby. To lesbian women together cannot create a baby.
Are you going to refute the inequality there? Does it piss you off if I recognize there is a difference there? If the mere action of pointing that out pisses you off, that is YOUR problem, and no one else's.
Not sure if serious. I'm guessing you've never heard of sperm/egg donors, artificial insemination, surrogate mothers, etc....
Guess what, gay couples are having kids at this very moment.
Heh, it's pretty funny how backwards conservatives are when it comes to science.
Apparently, and sadly, the one near me in NJ was crowded. Close to NYC and a relatively liberal area. But it's also the only CFA in the surrounding county or two, I believe, so morons were traveling from afar. I probably would have passed out from anger if I witnessed it
You have a strong opinion on the subject. The right to have and express an opinion is a wonderful thing. Don't let another's opinion bother you. The aggravation is not worth it.
I mean, he's still right. They can't physically produce a baby together... :hmm:

On that topic, many male+female couples can't conceive either, are they now considered an inequality?
I think I'll have some chic-fill-a today. Honestly, I couldn't care less about the gay thing, it's that spicy deluxe chicken sandwich that's alluring me at the moment.... Mmmmm.
Pretty much... oh you don't want gay marriage? That's great... is it gonna affect the good tasting food? No? Ok carry on.
How DARE you sir. You have no right to interrupt my religion for me! This is my personal belief, not some thing you can stir up with some people who think god wouldn't plant false evidence in the historical record to test us!
You apologists just need to get lost. I follow the bible, not some scientists who think that paintings in egypt can define what really happened. How did they date those paintings? I trust my personal relationship with jesus and not some devil science.
But sense you have all the answers, maybe you can tell me why rape is a crime and not a one way ticket to marriage with a hot chick? Or why my wife seems to think she has a say in what we do and how I spend my money. She's my damn property!
Which Bigots? There seem to be plenty on both sides.
fuck, that is not the answer people.. violence isn't going to do anything but make this a lot worse.
