Is Chick-fil-A anti-gay?

I think not. This popular fast-food chain restaurant is now under scrutiny from gay rights groups since it donated food to an anti-gay marriage group. Chick-fil-A is a Conservative Christian restaurant business. I personally believe they have the right to donate to whomever they want and support the Cause of opposing marriage between homosexual Couples if they Choose.

I do not believe that their donation and Conservative beliefs makes them prejudice towards individuals of homosexual orientation. They are just holding to the belief as it is written in the Bible: 1 Corinthians 6:9-10, "Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals,nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God"

In America we may not be physically persecuted for exclaiming and being animated about the literal views and morality of the Bible as Christian in other Countries. However it seems that Christian's in America are definetly discouraged to be vocal and actively support their beliefs. This controversy is very sad to me since donating food to a cause that supports a religious conviction is seen as wrong.

Supporting an anti same-sex marriage group is a religious conviction issue (according to the Bible) and it is their American right to support whatever moral issue they Choose, right?

Below is CEO's Dan Cathy's response to the Controversy:
