Wondering what others think about this. If you read the article, it ties into their separating from Salvation Army and Fellowship of Christian Athletes

Eager to expand its footprint overseas and into liberal cities in the U.S., executives at Chick-fil-A have made the decision to no longer donate to perennially controversial charities like the Salvation Army and the Fellowship of Christian Athletes.
There are a couple of videos to watch, and the article is not that long.

Chick-fil-A president and COO Tim Tassopoulos said that, as the company expands into more places, “we need to be clear about who we are.” He added, “There are lots of articles and newscasts about Chick-fil-A, and we thought we needed to be clear about our message.”

Shining shoes and kissing feet is no where near the same thing as washing feet

I think the shoe shining post is about this: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...ent-racism-shining-black-strangers-shoes.html

The homosexual pandering article is about a year old. There is a lengthy, and contentious thread about Chuck fil A and this story. I’ll try and find it.

There is no forgiveness due to CRT, BLM, Woke "Christianity" or their false gospels since no white person alive owned slaves, and no black person alive in America was a slave.

There also will never be any forgiveness forthcoming from any of these hate groups. Any person shining their shoes, and those accepting this are a disgrace.

That these people have been indoctrinated they are owed entitlements and reparations is unfounded, sad, ignorant and only designed to divide. They will never be satisfied no matter what is done, their selfish sinful human nature has been exploited and selfish human nature can never be satisfied.

There were many more white slaves under blacks than there were black slaves in America. Note Barbary Slaves.

Blacks owned slaves here too. So did Native Americans, and they sided with the Confederacy in the civil war.

Blacks still enslave blacks today.

The entire movement is callow, evil, hypocritical, destructive, Satanic. It isn't seeking justice, it is cherry picking who gets to pay vengeance on whom, and who gets to overlook their own history of owning slaves "themselves."

They want "justice" on everyone but themselves. It reminds me of when Jesus said "Ethnicity (*Nation) shall rise against ethnicity (Nation)." (*"Nation" is "ethnos" which is literally ethnicity)

I think the media is gaslighting America into thinking that the isolated problems that exist are bigger and more far-reaching than they actually are. Peoples' fears and emotions at being played and the media has been responsible for inciting riots. Good luck holding them accountable.

For sure fears are being exploited, for example if you don't wear a mask, Covid is going to kill you. I would disagree that the media is inciting the riots though. The riots are being funded by people like Soros who desire the fall of the US. Last night, on the news, BLM finally came out and said that white people should give up their properties and they desire to take over the White House.

Actually, the liberal media are covering up the riots and the damage and the murders to a large extent.

These people are trying to enact a revolution.

Liberal and conservative media both incite fear and panic, at least the mainstream ones do. You don't have to say "get out there and riot" to incite rioting. It can be strongly intimated and encouraged by using loaded language and innuendo and the media are master manipulators.

To say the problem in the streets boils down to to the influence of a single man is an understatement, though you aren't wrong to say he spreads his influence; I just think you're exaggerating the scope of it.

I never said one man was responsible for the rioting. Perhaps you are not aware of certain movements in this country?

I wonder if people know that the Execs and/or Employees of Chick Fil A are human beings just like all other people?

No better, no worse................

Human beings that others look up because of their belief in Jesus.

This is major stuff here and represents disappoint for lots of people. Wonder no more. We are all making decisions every day and all day long about how we represent Christ if we say we are saved. It's not about 'human beings' when you stand in front of the world and proclaim certain things and then with the whole world watching you, you give reasons for no longer taking the stance you once did. Kind of flaky if you ask me.

Too many people are falling in with BLM and Antifa propaganda. Cathy can do what he wishes and people will decided whether to support him or not. He's putting himself out there. Some will agree, some won't. If the majority disagree he doesn't get to cry about it later.

I often wonder about the bigger corporations that claim to be Christian.
Hobby lobby was another one. Apparently his wife had a dream that God said to stay open during the coronavirus. Did they develop a plan of action to keep people safe about it? Nope, just stay open. Seems fishy to me. Because people really needed decor items while trying to get bread for example.

In fairness one wrong political move can ruin a person financially. They hold people responsible for even things they said decades ago. As if no one in the world is allowed to grow and change as a person.
