Too often, those on the left make rporate statements to show support for same-sex marriage, abortn, or profany, but if Christians affirm tradnal valu, we’re nsired homophobic, fundamentalists, hate-mongers, and tolerant.

In 2019, Chick-fil-A announced that they changed their missn and donate to different chari than they have the past, not specifilly nfirmg they will stop givg to anti-gay chari.

I would like to see the data on how much money the pani donated to gay rights groups back when we were actually fightg for our gay rights.

Reports of puberty-blockers and synthetic sex hormon beg ed as experimental “nversn therapy” for gay and lbian youth ought to alarm all of .

After the gay rights victori, culmatg wh the historic Obergefell and Bostock US Supreme Court lgs–both ma possible by nservative Christian Jtic on the Court–the gay Left lost s way. If Chick-fil-A had a history of discrimatg agast gay or transgenr employe or ctomers, my gus is the activists would have let know.
