Not once.

How the hell can you look at all the stupid shit written next to the gay comment, chose to brush that off as old testament and then pick one specific part of the old testament and say well God meant that part?

Absolute lunacy.

you yourself say there are contradictions in the bible, and between the Old and New testament there certainly are, especially on some of the issues in your cute little illustration. However since you admit that the part about homosexuality is in the bible, please show me where it is contradicted in the new testament.

Why should business owners be able to say what they want but politicians not be able to?

So you think that elected officials should, while acting in the capacity of their elected office, tell people which companies they should patronize and which they shouldn't?

Should the President be able to make a speech telling people not to shop at Home Depot and that they "are not welcome here" because the CEO has some different belief? What would happen if a mayor made a speech saying that a business operated by a Muslim was "not welcome here"? The only difference is whether or not you agree with the opinion. Exactly as I said, it has nothing to do with being for or against gay marriage. It is about his freedom to have that belief without GOVERNMENT retribution.

Elected officials should have absolutely zero hand in choosing what businesses fail and which succeed.

If you don't see the issue with that, you really are a fucking idiot.

You already indicated old testament scripture is irrelevent. Polygamy and incest were promoted in the old testament and they are not specifically mentioned in the new testament either. You sure you want to base your position on that?

Oh, so now it was his "intent".

You are as bad as what you claim to be offended by.

What the hell do you think was the intent of the Mayor of a city saying that a company is "not welcome here"?

Is that really above your comprehension level?

Let's face reality, arguing with you in a thread involving both government control and your bigotry is absolutely pointless.

You are a real piece of work. You claim a righteous indignation over comments you claim the Mayor of Chicago said - get called out on your false allegation, and then resort to name calling.

Like I've said before, politicians love this shit. It distracts from the real problems they have caused and have no solutions for. And guess what folks, how the owner of a fast food chain feels about gay marriage is not one of the pressing problems facing our country today. Hell, gay marriage itself isn't even in the top 100.

It's an election year. This isn't even budging the needle on the silly meter compared to what else we will see before November.

Some of the businesses are taking the mayor of DC ( pure Marion Barry type douche) to task about the issue. Telling him to STFU about what businesses are allowed to be in the district.

I forgot to mention, the press loves it, too. Requires very little journalistic skills or effort to fill air time with this crap.

Actually the owner has figured a way to put his product in front of the whole country. No matter what side you are on, You'll know what Chik-Fil-A is.
