  • I really really wish people would stop glorifying Chick-Fil-A. The company's statement of purpose says that the business exists "to glorify God by being a faithful steward of all that is entrusted to us..." The fast-food company has financially supported religious-conservative groups like Focus on the Family, which opposes abortion, feminism, homosexuality, and pre-marital sex. The restaurant was also involved in some suspicious behavior that led to a lawsuit: http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m3190/is_44_36/ai_94131554/ Essentially, the day after a Muslim employee declined to take part in a group prayer to Jesus Christ, he was fired. If people want to continue visiting and supporting a discriminatory business, that's fine, but they should at least be informed.
