Religion What is your take on religion? Do you base your thoughts in life according to your religion? Do you feel that religion should be kept out of Government and Politics?

Christians Against McDonalds

The Taliban Christians are at it again. This time calling for a boycott of McDonald’s because they support “sodomites.” Ok, so maybe Ronald McDonald comes off as a little fruity, but cut him some slack guys, he’s a clown!
If you’re interested in learning more about why McDonalds wants to give you two hot patties and special sauce in a bun, visit BoycottMcDonalds.com

I rarely eat at McDonald’s but this weekend I will be sure to stop in and get me some Big Mac and a large chocolate shake.
Fight the good fight, and die with the enemy's heart in your hand.

The Burger King looks like a clown, too.

I know there is a Roy Rogers in Leesburg, VA. But that's a long way from Florida. I visited that Roy Rogers in 2004. I may go there again in a couple of months on my to or from Pittsburgh. But mornings always entices me to visit a Dunkin' Donuts location there.

I don't know why a Roy Rogers don't have a Trigger Special. I guess they don't make horseburgers.

Gotta hand it to you Willie you have a photographic memory of fast food establishments and other eateries you've visited in the last 40 years!

I like Bob's Big Boy restaurants but there aren't many around any more. Their chocolate fudge sundaes come with a tiny jug of extra fudge - magnificent.

Yeah, I know. They were a leader in their field. Too bad they closed. I guess there are a lot of Shoneys east of the Mississippi.

I am gonna take a wild guess that "Christian Brother" was making a parody right there.

Even if McDonald's has contributed monies to a homosexual activist group...

You know, years ago the Croc foundation, owners of McDonald's, at least in the 80's, well...fundamental Christians were encouraged to boycott them then. That because they supported with monies some research project concerning stem cell research.

I personally, at that same time, was most thankful to McDonald's. My second oldest was six at the time, and had gone into status epilepticus, newly diagnosed with epilepsy at all. But that incident life-threatening. When his local doctor referred to a specialist in pediatric neurology at a hospital/clinic two and a half hours away, and my son was there for two weeks, I got to stay in very nice quarters at a Ronald McDonald House for a mere $5 a day. Though I stayed many nights at the hospital right in my son's room, it gave me a reprieve. And it was filled with so many parents facing medical heartbreak too, so it was great not to have it break the pocketbook besides.

Two of my kids work at McDonald's now. My favorite is the Asian Salad with grilled chicken. And their ice cream cones are only 150 calories!

Anyhow, nuf' said...that vid was either a parody or lacked any real information to show that McDonald's is any different than any other big business or even The United Way for that matter...

Christian Brother may have been making a parody, but the "American Family Association" wasn't:

Boycott McDonald's - A Project of American Family Association

Quote:
What the boycott of McDonald's IS about

It is about McDonald's, as a corporation, refusing to remain neutral in the culture wars. McDonald's has chosen not to remain neutral but to give the full weight of their corporation to promoting the homosexual agenda, including homosexual marriage.

PROPAGANDA:

What lies behind us and lies before us are small matters compared to what lies right to our faces.

Your religious beliefs end where civil law begins.

"Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere." --Martin Luther King, Jr.

"All, too, will bear in mind this sacred principle, that though the will of the majority is in all cases to prevail, that will to be rightful must be reasonable; that the minority possess their equal rights, which equal law must protect, and to violate would be oppression." - Thomas Jefferson
