Do you have plans to eat out next Wednesday? Choose Chick-fil-A! Chick-fil-A's affirmation of the traditional family deserves a big thank you, especially as they take the heat from others who demand "tolerance." Please read this letter from the president of Family Research Council, Tony Perkins. -Phil Burress- Citizens for Community Values
Dear Friend, Last week, Chick-fil-A's CEO Dan Cathy told the Baptist Press of his company's steadfast support for marriage and family:
We are very much supportive of the family--the biblical definition of the family unit. We are a family-owned business, a family-led business, and we are married to our first wives. We give God thanks for that... We know that it might not be popular with everyone, but thank the Lord, we live in a country where we can share our values and operate on biblical principles. This simple affirmation of biblical truth has sent homosexual activists into a frenzy. From calling for universities to keep the restaurant off campus, to Boston's mayor vowing to use his political power to keep Chick-fil-A out of the city, these left-wing activists will stop at nothing to make this successful business pay for holding American values. Chick-fil-A may be a private company, but that doesn't mean its executives have to surrender their beliefs. Under the First Amendment, they are just as entitled as any American to speak publicly about their views. Those of us who share Chick-fil-A's commitment to the biblical definition of the family need to show them that we stand with them (whether or not we're chicken connoisseurs!). Please join thousands of others and "Like" our Facebook post supporting Chick-fil-A's stand. Leave a comment in support, or share the post on your page. Join FRC and eat at Chick-fil-A on Wednesday, August 1 for Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day - an effort started by Gov. Mike Huckabee to show that Americans stand with them.
