Support Chick-Fil-A
July 29, 2012
Although we supposedly live in a country that has free-speech as one of its hallmarks, it is becoming apparent that we are losing this right. The latest victim of the mainstream media, leftists and the so-called “tolerant,” regarding free-speech, is “Chick-Fil-A.” They have made this company “out to be a villain” for simply standing true to its pro-family principles.
Well if one believes in family values, like those espoused by this company, one will be able to do something to voice those values and support, monetarily, this all-American and God-fearing business. It is still possible to speak out loud on political and social issues in this country (at least for now).
On August 1, 2012, former Governor, Mike Huckabee, is calling for a national “Chick-Fil-A appreciation day.” We, as a nation, can put the proverbial “money where our mouth is,” literally. I would hope that all of you who follow or read this blog will support Chick-Fil-A this coming Wednesday. Let’s send a message to the intolerant that we will not be bullied by their slimy tactics. My prayer is that this company will have its biggest sales day ever on that day.
Completely agree!!! God bless!!
I still believe that we are a Christian nation despite the naysayers.
We will be there Wednesday in full support. We have been trying to not eat out as much, but this a very worthy cause that deserves our support. Great post!!
Thank you, and God bless you, Sarah.
Thanks for your stance on this!
Hi Dan. Unfortunately, Chick-Fil-A has been slandered similar to the Boy Scouts of America: for standing up for the truth and for what they believe in. I thank God for organizations like these- unwilling to compromise.
I would love to be able to eat at Chick-Fil-A simply to show the haters in this nation free speech is a right and not punishable by a bunch of godless Quacks. I believe people have a right to their way of life but when they seek to punish for exercising our rights…They have crossed the line.
Hopefully, the nation will respond by giving Chick-Fil-A a great financial boost which will show that this country is still a God-fearing one.
This is great, I too believe this is a Christian based nation. I will be a proud supporter on Wednesday!
God Bless
Our country is teetering, however, and without an enormous change, I fear for our future. God bless you, also.
well put
Thanks, and God bless you.
I have never had Chick-fil-A food, even though I heard that it is very good. I did know that Dan Cathy was a Christian, and Aug. 1st I will show my support of Biblical principles and the author of those principles Jesus Christ. Good post.
Thank you for the kind words. Chick-Fil-A is a great company that has become a “punching bag” for those who claim to be inclusive but really are not.
It is our intention to join in the Support Day tomorrow (Aug 1). In fact, my husband person went there yesterday as a “warm up” to the main event — haha.
You have a great blog here, Scott. Will be following from now on.
That is cool that your husband made a “dry run.” I hope many others do the same and continue to so in the future. God bless you.
Very well written article that I clearly agree with 110%! Will try to make it out tomorrow (stupid work).
Thank you.
Amen!
Thanks for commenting on my blog too. God Bless.
Thank you also.
Very cool.
Thank you, Drew.
United we stand, divided we fall…God Bless you Scott!
I think that those who fear the Lord outnumber those who don’t in this country. Yesterday, proved that statement.
I couldn’t agree with you any more Scott. From what I understand that day was a record selling day and I am glad for that.
I hope this is a sign of what will happen in November.
I went here in West Des Moines, Iowa, and the food court was mobbed. Never seen so many people happy to wait in line! They paper estimates 3500 came through the line. I think it may have been quite a bit more than that.
I went to the Ocoee, Florida location around 5:30 in the afternoon, and they were “swamped.” The line to get inside was “out the door,” and the drive-thru extended around the building and down the street.
Hi Scott,
You may be interested to know that the ACLU supports Chick-Fil-A in their right to speak though they disagree. I found this out when reading about some politicians wanting to ban the restaurant.
The ACLU apparently didn’t like the idea of government intervention in this case. They are correct in it’s a slippery slope that can go both way. Talk about strange bedfellow.
My take on the issue is one of how to talk with gay couples. Have a blessed day!
Barry, thanks for reading.
Wow Scott, thanks for sharing that; I didn’t know. That is mighty strange and a bit comical..
Sorry, I meant Barry!!
I believe the support was so great for Chick-Fil-A because our values were attacked and Chick-Fil-A was just the proxy war. It was the Vietnam to the Cold war of cultural values. And, it largely backfired as I predicted.
You did predict correctly then!
I’m not sure if people realize that this press on Chick Fil A, has made them an instant “house hold name”, gave them great publicity, especially to the Christians who had no clue of their beliefs, and will now expand their customer base! Happy to realize this…
I believe God is proud that Dan Cathy didn’t retract or bend with the world’s ideas and will have a great reward for him and all others who dont bow to anything less than the Lord’s Word/Name/Will, in heaven
Strange how what man meant for evil, God can turn around for good.
That is so true!
It is encouraging to see people like Dan Cathy who are not timid about their beliefs.
wow, u got some many comments about Chick fila
Hi I am following your blog, and just now I put your blog on my list of blogs that I follow on my front page (right hand column, towards the bottom).That helps u get more visitors to your blog in at least a couple of ways. Would you consider doing the same for me? Thanks. Mine is a Christian blog, too. Or if you can just post my site in one or your posts it would help a lot, or maybe even leaving this comment will help.
Come and visit mine sometime http://www.bradstanton.com Have a great week, love your photo’s.
Yes, I will try to promote your site. God bless you, Brad.
Hi Scott,
I am so pleased to see that there is a large remnant of believers who will stand up for the commandments of Jesus in the USA. Compromise seems to be the way of life for some many Christians that they do not even know their bible scriptures in order to quote them. It is by the word of our Testimony and the Blood of the Lord Jesus Christ that we overcome. I have to keep reminding myself that it is not flesh and blood that we are fighting but principalities and powers in the heavenlies. This is where intercession will bring down/remove spiritual blindness of people so they will see clearly and can make a decision to accept Jesus as their Lord and Saviour.
Great article and love your Blog.
Bless you, Raymond.
