[Linux4christians] OT: Chick-fila is a Pro-Family, Christian Led Company- GASP!!! (The Nerve!)

[Fred A. Miller]

Description: American Flag

*IN* *GOD* *WE TRUST*
*Thought all of you might like to know about this.  I was shocked that
Chick-fil-A is being attacked for trying to run their company the way
they think God wants them to.  Once we're told how to run our companies
and lives... our freedoms are completely gone.  They say to choose your
battles, I believe this is definitely a battle worth fighting*.

*Let's all eat at Chick-Fil-A this week
**
Now the Socialists (AKA Obama Democrats) have targeted Chick-Fil-A, a
Southern based company with the below resume..
I think, I'll have a Chick-Fil-A sandwich tomorrow.*

*Chick-fil-A is an American success story. Founded by Georgian
entrepreneur Truett Cathy in 1946, the family-owned chicken-sandwich
chain is one of the country's largest fast-food businesses. It employs
some 50,000 workers across the country at 1,500 outlets in nearly 40
states and the District of Columbia ... The company generates more than
$2 billion in revenue and serves millions of happy customers with
trademark Southern hospitality.

So, what's the problem? Well, Chick-fil-A is run by devout Christians
who believe in strong marriages, devoted families, and the highest
standards of character for their workers. The restaurant chain's
official corporate mission is to "glorify God" and "enrich the lives of
everyone we touch.." The company's community-service initiatives, funded
through its WinShape Foundation, support foster-care, scholarship,
summer-camp, and marriage-enrichment programs. On Sunday, all
Chick-fil-A stores close so workers can spend the day at worship and rest.

Over the past month, several progressive-activist blogs have waged an
ugly war against Chick-fil-A. The company's alleged atrocity: One of its
independent outlets in Pennsylvania donated some sandwiches and brownies
to a marriage seminar run by the Pennsylvania Family Institute, which
happens to oppose same-sex marriage.

In the name of tolerance, the anti-Chick-fil-A hawks sneered at the
company's main product as "Jesus Chicken," derided its no-Sunday-work
policy, and attacked its operators as "anti-gay." Petition drives on
websites are demanding the company change and disavow their standards.
Facebook users dutifully organized witch hunts against the company on
college campuses.
Progressive groups are gloating over Chick-fil-A's public-relations
troubles. This is not because they care about winning hearts and minds
over gay rights or marriage policy, but because their core objective is
to marginalize political opponents and chill Christian philanthropy and
activism.. The fearsome "muscle flexing" is being done by the hysterical
bullies trying to drive them off of college grounds and out of their
neighborhoods in the name of "human rights."

*Please pass this on if you believe companies with Christian principles
have a right to freely conduct business in the U.S.* 
*IN GOD WE TRUST'*
*Amen to this!!!!*
