“Eat Mor Chikin” – I DID!

Peanut Gallery: Today was the big “Free Speech” / “Religious Freedom” day for culture warriors and I did my part. So did hundreds of other folks in Aurora, IL where we’re visiting our family. I waited 2 hours in line for inside counter service. Drive through wait was about 45 minutes. And the lines were just as long when I left. This was big!

It was a lot like a tea party gathering without signs – lot’s of regular folks waiting for hours in the hot sun to make a point for freedom… it had very little to do with the food. It took time, energy and passion… and people were glad to do it. It would have been a terrific place for conservative voter registration effort.

The people in line with me couldn’t wait to express their support for traditional family values. And they can’t wait for November 6th to express their opinion again. The sleeping American giant has had enough. Look at the variety of people – men, women and families.

The people who know their God will display strength and take action (Daniel 11:32, NASB).

It seems that a group of mischievous cows with poor spelling skills—or a lowly chicken, depending on your preferred logo—has become the latest symbol of America’s cultural divide.

When Dan Cathy, president and chief operating officer of Chick-fil-A, affirmed his stance on the sanctity of traditional marriage, same-sex marriage advocates loudly voiced their opposition and called for Americans to boycott the restaurant.

Days later, former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee responded by calling for a National Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day on Wednesday, Aug. 1, an action supported by both Billy Graham and Franklin Graham.

In a statement issued July 26, Billy Graham said he supported his “good friends Truett Cathy and his son Dan Cathy, and their strong stand for the Christian faith.

“Each generation faces different issues and challenges,” said Mr. Graham, “but our standard must always be measured by God’s word. I appreciate the Cathy family’s public support for God’s definition of marriage.” Continue reading ““Eat Mor Chickin” – Aug 1st – Billy Graham” →
