By the way: Have you ever actually had a chicken sandwich from Chick-fil-A? I've never had a "greasy" one. -
A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
(Luk 6:45)
The assault on traditional marriage and family values is at a current national event as was the response. Your attempt to put down Christians on the premise of comparing a national event to everyday needs of supporting the poor and hungry is fallacious. Degenerate liberals overstepped their bounds with their intolerance against Christian values and began making threats to restrict a business owner from expanding his business in their areas while the battle over maintaining family values has recently been brought to the forefront nationally by those trying to push the homosexual agenda forward and the response being nationwide is perfectly understandable.
You want a legitimate comparison, on an individual level, this is the first time I’ve been inclined to make an effort to support a business that was under attack from those promoting the homosexual agenda by “attempting’ (They were closed due to running out of food) to spend a few bucks to eat there and show my support. Many, many times I have placed a few bucks in charity jars at the checkouts in stores.
If those promoting the homosexual agenda continue to attack businesses that hold to “my” Christian values I will continue to make the effort to support those companies many, many times as well…despite the dogmatic efforts of “some” to make these types of comparisons in an attempt to cast doubt on Christian priorities and principles.

BTW, do you think homosexuality is a sin? -
Contrary to your belief, supporting Christian values in the world is not a "trivial matter" (at least for Christians), and it does not take second place behind your love of worldly ways and values and I am simply pointing out that fact which is quite apparent from your common agenda of proselytizing otherwise on this Christian board. In my book you’re trolling and the scripture I presented does indeed give insight as to what is in on your mind and in your heart:
A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
(Luk 6:45)
No, it is you that is demonstrating ignorance by thinking you can disguise your heart while you are continually speaking up in support of your worldly agendas at every opportunity. -

You have not even begun to make a biblical case for your view...but set yourself in opposition to the majority of believers on this.
It is not up to Benjamin or anyone else to have to read "peoples minds' to see that this is clearly the heathen raging against God and His word and lawful ordinances.
The fact that even today sodomites are trying to counter-protest by attempting lewd acts at chick fila shows the nature of the wickedness being expressed and the open contempt for God's creation ordinance of Marraige between one man and one woman.
It is not the "loving thing to do" to excuse sodomite behaviour as being peachy keen. We do not need to hate them...but rather we are called to speak directly to the sin and rebellion of God's truth they they seek to proclaim as acceptable.
Then can the gospel be preached to them, and all manner of sin be forgiven to any who repent and believe the gospel,
Sin is not acceptable in or outside the church.
it is a sad day when a professed christian would draw back from speaking about the sinfulness of sin.
