A true American Entrepreneur

God bless America. Somebody is making money.:laugh:

peace to youraying:

 

Yeah...and tons of "funny" shirts with disgusting sexual jokes on them as well. Sounds like a guy that will do whatever to make a buck. Sorry, that's not a real American to me. A real American has some morals and decency and displays those values even in his business.

You want to talk about a real American entrepreneur, let's talk S. Truett Cathy! :thumbs:

 

Cafe press has some very vulgar stuff. Maybe Lb didn't realize that.

 

Agreed...but I was talking about (and I think he was) this company Zazzle. CafePress is basically a place where individuals (or companies) can design and sell their own t-shirts. This Zazzle is a tshirt company all on it's own. Both have plenty of trash. CafePress just let's people make any trash they want and Zazzle makes it themselves.

 

By this line of thinking, it's ok for a company to cater to the lowest morals and values in a society, since someone will buy it? Would it be ok for a company to sell tshirts promoting beasiality, pedophelia, and incest since there are people that will buy it? A businessman or company can't use the excuse that people are buying products to throw their values out the window. We as Christians need to let these companys know that we won't stand for it and refuse to purchase any of their products.

 

I agree with the consumers have just as much fault.

I don't agree that a company should sell vulgar items just because someone will buy it. I can't even believe that you are saying that you believe it's ok for a company to do so.

I never implied that you said that. I was asking a question. But, based upon your other answer, why do you have a problem with it? You just stated that you don't have a problem with a company catering to the lowest morals in society.

I agree. Our first priority is to share the Gospel with the lost. Taht doesn't mean though that we should just let sin run rampant around us with the hope that everyone gets saved. We should also stand up for what's right and one way we can do that is to boycott companys that promote evil.

 

zazzle is like cafepress - people design their own products and sell them to whoever wants to buy them.

 

Wade's right you know, LeBuick--------lets not trade $$$$$$$'s for morals!!


I had an opportunity to purchase Brother Cathy's "Success" books some time ago--------------I pulled in to a Chick-Fil-A in Jackson, MS and the books were on display for sale-------I broused through one while my wife ordered our sandwiches-------and I said to myself, "Blackbird!!!! You ought to buy this book!!!!" but I didn't and now I can't find the book anywhere

 

And would those morals include opposing the slaughter of unborn or just born children?

I agree with you about Cathy. I believe LeTourneau was of the same spirit.

 

Where did this come from?

 

I believe it came from post #13. I assume a real American Christian would think the slaughter of the unborn and just born would be a moral issue. Don't you think so?

 

You assume? Don't you know for sure?

 

Not unless some of those who post on this Forum are not Christians!

 

What does this have to do with whether you know something to be true or assume it to be true?

Personally, I know that abortion is murder and that a real American (regardless whether they are Christian or not) will know the same.

You know where I stand on abortion, I have made that abundantly clear in everything I have posted regarding abortion and those who support it.

I am not going to quibble with you over words any more. I try not to quibble but to be as direct as possible though I realize I have engaged in quibbling with you in this particular incidence.

I also realized that if I addressed this issue as I would like to I would probably be excluded from the Forum because I would question some persons salvation.

Does that make you happy?
