Conservative Christians rage after Chick-fil-A promises to stop hating gays for Jesus.
After Chick-fil-A promised they will stop supporting conservative Christian groups with an anti-LGBT agenda, conservative Christians had a melt down.
Earlier today major media outlets reported that the chicken franchise pledged that they would stop donating to anti-LGBT conservative Christian groups.
For example, CNN reports:
Chick-fil-A is making major changes to its charitable foundation, ending donations to two organizations that have been criticized for being anti-LGBTQ.
The fast food chain announced Monday that beginning next year it will only donate to a certain group of charities. That list no longer includes the Salvation Army and the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA). Both organizations have taken controversial stands on homosexuality and same-sex marriage.
However, after news of this attempt at damage control to a brand tarnished and ruined by the stench of Christian bigotry became public, many conservative Christians were enraged, and some even promised to boycott Chick-fil-A.
The following is a sample of the reactions via Twitter:
In Aug 2012, I coordinated a national @ChickfilA Appreciation Day after they were being bullied by militant hate groups. Millions showed up. Today, @ChickfilA betrayed loyal customers for $$. I regret believing they would stay true to convictions of founder Truett Cathey. Sad.

Shame, shame on you, @ChickfilA. You are the 3rd most successful fast food franchise in the US. You had no reason to capitulate. But you did. Yes, shame on the progressive bullies too — yet the greater shame is yours, Chick-fil-A, you cowards. https://t.co/eTfALNMUz4

Shame on @ChickfilA.
The LGBT bully mob is unquestionably the most powerful mob in America today. Everyone bends the knee or risk their wrath. Makes me freaking ill. https://t.co/UX8mjvFZ57

in a stunning move, @ChickfilA kowtows to the intolerant, hate mob. I don’t eat fried chicken and rarely have fast food.. but, I cannot tell you how disturbing this news is to those who believe in traditional Judeo-Christian values. Shame on you. https://t.co/YjxdhjqnsH

Congrats #ChickFilA you sold your principles to the hate-mob & they won’t leave you alone until you renounce your Christian beliefs. You might as well open on Sunday…If you’re not going to honor His principles, why honor His day?
Truett Cathy spinning in his grave @ChickfilA
