I've been boycotting CFA for decades before this latest fal-de-rall

[MNBrewer]

I try not to patronize "Christian businesses". Not businesses owned or operated by Christians mind you, but "Christian businesses"...the kind that put Jesus-fish on their trucks, or bible verses on the sign. If you indicated that you are a "Christian business" and advertise that fact in an effort to obtain business (which is the case) then it's perfectly reasonable that you're also loosing some business for the same reason. This is why I will never go to Pizza Ranch, for example.

1. I feel the same...

I don't appreciate businesses trying to 'lure' me in because of their beliefs. I'm also not a fan of businesses who put out signs for specific candidates (especially Republicans), as if to say my business is not needed because I'm not 'the right kind of person'.

2. That's why I've never eaten at a Chik-fil-a

I knew early on the owner was a religious nutbag and I know most religious nutbags contribute to causes I find abhorrent.

I patronize Christian businesses every day, it's hard not to. I just avoid the ones that feel compelled to wear their religion on their sleeves (and advertising). I've learned through long and bitter experience that their advertising is the only place Christianity is ever displayed.

3. I realized this back in the 1970s as a kid

when, on a church trip, the whacko-fundie youth "minister" suggested that we all eat at the Chikfila. I ate elsewhere in the mall food court, but from that moment on, I knew something was foul (fowl?) with that place.

4. I've never even seen one. A full sensory boycott, I guess.

5. Grew up in Georgia, which is lousy with them, I guess.

There are two here in Minnesota. One in the ticketed passenger only area of the airport, and one in the Student Union of the U of M. One of those might not be long for this world, I imagine.

7. Using Jesus for commercial purposes is unChristian IMHO.

9. i personally dont care about a businesses political or personal views unless they upfront dis me

if they do the best pizza in town for the best price they get the business, same for my auto etc i simply dont look at whats happening unless its immediately in my face.

10. I consider the Jesus-fish grounds for dismissal.

"I like being able to fire people who provide services to me."

11. I first encountered CFA in 2005, I had a bad vibe then.

It has since then been confirmed.

If you're a 'Christian' shouting about how awesome a Christian you are from every street corner, then I won't really trust you very much.

12. No Chik-Filet for me either

I've been boycotting them for about a year. I used to go there once a month b/c their grilled chicking sandwich seemed a healthier alternative when making the bad fast food choice. Also, my daughter liked the playground. No more, though.
