WN: Gay Rights Group Petitions Against Chick-Fil-A, Plans 'Kiss-I

[Guest Butero]

Unless Chick-Fil-A actively attacks gays as policy I frankly could care less.

Chick-fil-A hasn't done this. So please explain to me why the gay community is so up in arms about it. Please xplain to me exactly why, as an organized group, they are so distraught and reactive about someone saying they believe [this], whatever it is. If their is not an agenda, then why the fervor? Can you explain that to me?

I would eat there more if they attack gays as policy. I am sick of the* edited * in your face attitude. I have no interest in seeking them out to harrass them, but I am sick of them demanding special rights.

Please point out one law that the LGBT movement wants passed that would give them more rights than you.

Homosexual marriage. It is an expansion of marriage, not the same rights that already exist. Any man can marry any woman of legal age today, whether they be homosexual or heterosexual. A gay man can marry a woman, just like a straight man can marry a woman. That is equal protection under the law. What a gay man cannot do is marry another man, but neither could I. I wouldn't want to, but we are equal in what we can do. A pedophile man can marry an adult woman, but he can't marry a 9 year old. If he sought to change the law to be able to marry a 9 year old, it would be an expansion of marriage.

Attacking gays or anyone else is wrong, no matter how much in sin they are.

There is an organization out there that promotes legalizing sex between men and young boys. It is a real organization. I guess we can all agree that pedophiles are committing sin? Is it wrong to attack them? You said it is wrong to attack anyone, no matter "how much in sin they are?" How do you feel about Sandusky? Is it ok to attack him? I will never understand why people are so willing to try to be respectful of the sin of homosexual relations above other sins? Is it because we somehow don't think they can help who they are attracted to? The same thing can be said of pedophiles. Look at the teachers that went to prison for sex with students. Both were consenting. Does anyone defend them? Then look at other sins like murder. You did say we are wrong to attack anyone, no matter how much sin they are in. Is it wrong to attack O.J. Simpson for killing his wife? Murder is just another sin. We are going to have to wake up to what homosexuals are. They are sexual deviants, and have what the Bible calls reprobate minds. God calls their activities an abomination, which means something disgusting. If God attacks them in his Word, why is it wrong for Christians to attack their sin? Again, my problem with homosexuals isn't so much they are worse sinners than everyone else. My problem with them is that they promote and celebrate their sin.

Please point out one right they don't have that others do, beyond the right to legally marry? And they already have that right in a few states.

If you are going to continue to attempt to defend the homosexual agenda, you are going to have to explain to me exactly what type of Christian you are, and exactly how your belief system enables you to support homosexuality. We are already aware that your world view is very liberal. Evidently, that extends into moral venues as well.

You can be fired in 29 states for being gay. You can be fired in 38 for being transgender. You cannot be fired in any state for being a man or woman, or due to your race.

That whole "marriage" thing isn't just about marriage. It's about hospital visitation rights, it's about the right for that person regarding their funeral, the legacy and will they leave to their loved one. What happens to their bank accounts and property. Those are rights they don't have.

You know I am told, by gay people, what drives them away from Christianity? The treatment they receive from Christians. The kind of stuff about militant homosexual agenda's and such. They view that as denigrating, insulting, condescending, and disrespectful. They simply want to be treated like a regular human being with respect and dignity. I see no reason why I should not treat someone differently or with any less respect and dignity because of whether they are gay or not. See Luke 6:27-32.

Gays deal with being denied advancement in a job, being denied a job, being denied housing, being denied service at places of business, consistent harassment and verbal abuse, being beaten savagely by people/groups of people who don't like them being gay, being driven to suicide by anti-gay bullies.... Really I could list this kind of stuff for a few paragraphs. The supposed persecution Christians in North America face is absolutely nothing compared to what gays deal with.

I do not support anti-gay organizations like Chick-Fil-A, anti-gay speech, or anti-gay attitudes because it either directly or indirectly leads to the treatment of LGBT's as inferior people which is against Luke 6:27-32.

Good, and I want them people to be able to continue to fire someone for being gay or transgender. I want them to be able to deny them housing or job advancement. I have brought this up before. I oppose gay marriage because of anti-descrimination laws. The government has no business telling private citizens who they must hire or serve in a business they started with their own money. In a truly free country, people have the right to descriminate based on anything. Why should I care if homosexuals are driven away from Christianity? They are committing an open sin that will send them to hell. Coming to a Christian Church while engaging in homosexual activity won't save them. They would have to repent to be saved, so why should I care if they are turned off to Christians? Until they see themselves as doing wrong, it makes no difference.

The scripture you posted has nothing to do with descrimination. It simply tells me that if someone attacks me openly, I am not supposed to do bad to them. As for Chick Fil-A, I will go out of my way to support them to counter those who would boycott them, and I have never eaten there in the past. If I were able to find a location, I would eat there every day this week, just to spite the homosexual protestors.

And by the way BE, in saying all of this, if I were running a restaurant, I would serve anyone, including homosexuals. If I were running a business, I would hire the most qualified individuals, even if they were homosexuals. At the same time, I would not want the govenment telling me that I must provide insurance to homosexual partners because I give it to legitimately married couples. It is none of their business, and I won't recognize gay marriage even if they are issued a license. I would have a moral problem with renting a house to a homosexual couple, as I would have a problem renting to two people who are not married. At one time, it was normal to deny rent to a man and a woman who were not married. Ever see the old tv show, "Threes Company?" The landlord didn't want people engaging in fornication in his building, and had the right to descriminate. I support that right.

Wal-mart CEO is anit-Gay as well. LOL. Simply put that which was will be. As it was in the days of Lot shall it be in the days leading up to the Judgement of God. Does that mean you sit back and place you butt firmly on the fence. Either take a stand, switch sides or jump ship. Today Gays are bullys. You do not fight bullys with there own tactics. They have a retrobate mind. God gave it to them for a reason. You do not even try to get them saved other then praying for them. Becasue they are of a retrobate mind. Preverted in all ways of thinking.

So there has to be a game plan. Might I support getting on soap box and tell this nation. "hell no you got to go" Every time a democarate supports dsame sex maraige start a movement againt him " Hell no you go to Go" Every time a company supports Gay marraige. 'Hell no you got to Go" it takes a strategy to win this war. Leadership. dirrected effort. And a will. It takes getting involved in a good way.

If you actually loved the homsoexuals, you would tell them what the Bible says about their lifestyle and you would seek to lead them to Christ. You would share the love of Jesus with them, not enable them to continue in their abomination. God hates homsexuality and no one who practices it will enter the Kingdom of God. It is unnatural, impure and sinful and until you are honest about that and come to a biblical worldview on this issue, you are the greatest enemy the homsoexual community has. You sing them to sleep and enable them to become more and more deaf to the voice of the Holy Spirit who is calling them out of that lifestyle.

Amen, and I say this with a fathers heart who has a gay daughter.

I'm kind of sick of the whole gay agenda and anti-gay agenda. People need to mind their own business, be kind to everyone, and pray for sinners. Being gay is no different that cheating on your spouse.

Unfortunately, they are "in-your-face" about it, making it our business even if we don't want it. I think that the Bible calls adultery a sin, while GOD calls homosexuality an "abomination."

Not too much to clean up, just a derogatory use of words. We all know there are many meanings to the same word, so let's not cover a derogatory meaning with legitimate one.
