Now with Chik-fil-a appreciation day passed, and a new world record in one day sales met (in the respective market), what should we as Christians have learned from this( as well as the anti-christian LGBT community for that matter)?
1. That you should never underestimate the power of one people group to demonstrate their influence once rallied to a call, which btw, we as Christians would do well to participate in more often.
2. That toleration comes from both sides, to be intolerant of ones disagreement to a particular "lifestyle", or for that matter any opinion one may hold, is hypocritical if you call yourself a tolerant person.
3. That this whole thing was a demonstration not against what the LGBT community believes, but support for one individual to express his or her beliefs openly and publicly without threat of harm from the opposing party.
Also I can't help but sense the blatant hypocrisy of the so called "leaders" of cites et.al. against those with Biblical values when they in fact go out of their way (and force us to as well) to coddle and comfort those who hold the same anti-gay "marriage" belief i.e. Muslims! Why is it that we never hear an out cry over the advocating of the killing of gays as the Muslim religion clearly does hmmmmm? No true Christian would ever advocate such an act towards those with different "values".
In conclusion what I'm trying to say is that we as believers should first never back down from a fight against our freedoms that we have been granted by God, but that also means that we don't try and use unjust means to force people to live according to our standards, that's the job of the Gospel not of the government.
I will also say this, as I have said before, that the whole problem with the gay "marriage" issue is( apart from a depraved sinful heart) that the government is involved, and since that's the case we must, for the rights of the innocent that will be violated, stand against the legalization of those so called "marriages".
