AFA targets McDonald's
It’s been a while since we last heard from the American Family Association and its endless efforts to boycott companies that bother the group. As long-time readers may recall, every once in a while, Wildmon and the AFA will draw headlines for attacking a group or company for being insufficiently “pro-family,” though most of their complaints come across more as bizarre rants from extremists than anything else.
The targets from recent years include, but are by no means limited to, Wal-Mart (for promoting “Brokeback Mountain” DVDs), Target (for not having Salvation Army bell-ringers during the Christmas season), Ford Motor Company (for purchasing ads in gay-oriented publications), and the movie “Shark Tale” (which the AFA believed was intended to “brainwash children” into accepting gay rights). Last year, the AFA was particularly bold when it tried to block U.S. troops’ access to adult materials.
This week, the AFA decided McDonald’s is the new national scourge.
The “problem,” if you want to call it that, is the company’s vice president of communications, Richard Ellis, who has joined the board of directors for the National Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce. In an “action alert” sent to supporters yesterday, the AFA’s Wildmon expressed his outrage.
According to McDonald’s CEO Jim Skinner, McDonald’s will aggressively promote the homosexual agenda. In remarks on McDonald’s Web site concerning the company becoming a member of the National Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC), Skinner wrote: “Being a socially responsible organization is a fundamental part of who we are. We have an obligation to use our size and resources to make a difference in the world … and we do.”
Regardless, I hope McDonald’s has the good sense to ignore the AFA’s complaints.
Fuck the AFA and all their psycho member! I'm heading out for a Happy Meal right now!
Who are the type of people who agree with the AFA? Jesus, the country is falling apart, people are losing their homes, we have no money and these ass-holes are targeting gays and lesbians? Why don't they adopt a neglected child, join a soup kitchen or volunteer at a homeless shelter? Christ!
AFA targets McDonald’s
There are floppy shoes, and heat lamped stale fried mystery meat everywhere.
It's just a tool to separate little old ladies of both sexes from their Social Security checks. They send out a mass mailing which includes a questionnaire allowing recipients to vent against the homosexual agenda whatever that is. At the end of the questionnaire is a plea for donations, the smallest of which would buy a week's groceries even at today's prices.
My m.i.l. died and her mail is forwarded to us. It would be funny, if people didn't believe that if someone actually prints it, it must be true.
Why isn't there a Mrs. Ronald McDonald?
I don't really eat at McDonald's, but I'm going to drop by tonight and get a super-sized quarter pounder value meal just to piss these people off.
Yes, let's be very approving of all those Gays. Then soon after we can add all the Pedophiles and Polygamists and.........well hell, let's just go ahead and add rapists and murderers, too! After all we're ALL good people, even the bad ones, RIGHT? McDonalds is a coporate whore that will do ANYTHING for money!
Robert, equating gays and lesbians to Pedophiles and Polygamists is flat wrong! If not, insulting.
Robert @ 7:
You're comapring gays and lesbians to tp pedophiles, rapists and polygamists, Robert. The majority of crimes against children are committed by white, heterosexual men, you ignoramus. I'm sorry that men who enjoy Judy Garland and dressing up like her every now and then scare the shit out of you so! Moron!
D to the Izzle @ 6:
*singing*
Dahdahdah dah-dah
I'm lovin' it!
I am supporting the AFA on this. If they can somehow organize a mass boycott of McDonalds then obesity in America will decline rapidly. Do you want Health Care for all Americans? Why bother when there won’t be any patients to take care of. The AFA: Solving obesity and healthcare though family values.
Robert @ 7:
Halleleujah! Let's boycott grocery stores too! Starve teh gay outta them pervos!
*snark off*
Ah, yes. The 'homosexual agenda'. You know, crazy shit like wanting equal protection under the law.
The AFA. You know they're just chocked full of closet-cases.
Chocked.
It's true. McDonalds is now in the pocket of the International Gay Conspiracy. We are proud to have taken over the world's largest junk food outlet. As you may have noticed, the ranks of those of us who have already signed our lives over to Satan by switching from heterosexuality to homosexuality have been overwhelmed by the muscular, the buffed and the stylish. With the acquisition of McDonalds we are simply balancing out our base to include the overweight, the pimply and the style impaired. We here at the IGC feel that it is important to serve not only those who set the trends, but those who strive to follow them.
We look forward to introducing more and more Americans, and our customers around the world, to the pleasures of homosexuality. We ask those who have comments or suggestions on how we might speed up our goal of the sodomizing of the world to contact us.
The McDonalds Team/IGC
I still get a chuckle out of the Shark Tale boycott. Where was Wildmon when that flamer Jabberjaw had his own show?
Jabberjaw- teh gayest cartoon shark EVAH!
Chris H. @ 11:
If you want to boycott McDonald's because you think it makes people fat, then do so for that reason. By the way, last time I checked, McDonald's wasn't dragging people into their stores shoving their food down their throats. There's a little thing like personal responsibility...maybe fatties should try exercising that for a change instead of demanding business supervise and control their intake.
By the way, I was once 225 pounds and got tired of being a fat shit! I watched what I ate, exercised and am now 165 and in the best shape of my life. Maybe you should should stop going to McDonald's, Chris, and put all the extra double cheeseburger money towards a gym membership!
The AFA repulses me. The stand up on their soap box and dare to tell us that they are the most moral and righteous, when in fact, people like these folks helped to get elected the most criminal of Presidents in recent memory. All in the name of Family Values! Ironic, no?
Let's see: Who would I rather have a Quarter Pounder with?
A nice friendly, well adjusted, loving and caring, gay person or a moronic, anti-christian, bigot such as Robert?
I think I will go with the intellignent gay person and we can have a nice discussion about President Obama and his ideas to strengthen the role of Science in our country and ensuring adequate sex education (not that Abstinence poppycock) and getting Supreme Court judges who care about America, not what some religious whackjob wants.
Robert, you can join us. See you at McD's.
McD's has gotten so big I doubt it gives a shit anymore what any group thinks of them.
I've never eaten at McDonalds.
:)
McDonald's had to know that becoming associated with the National Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce would attract such attention and anger from groups like the AFA. They knew this going in. I think they calculated that doing the right thing would outweigh the rantings of an extreme group like the AFA. Most people, and customers, won't bat an eye at this and it won't make a difference. The AFA is irrelevant.
McDonald's will "aggressively promote the homosexual agenda?" [N.B. - The following is a tasteless attempt at humor, and is NOT meant to be insulting to homosexuals.]
Happy Meals will now be known as Gay Meals. Grimmace (sp?) will go from purple to pink. The Hamburglar will be renamed, but I won't write what I'm thinking. They will begin serving Harvey Milkshakes. Comfortable shoes will be mandated for all female employees. The uniforms will be made of leather. And all locations will play techno music and have colorful light shows.
What the f**k is the "homosexual agenda?"
I'd like mine super-sized please.
Darth_Romney @ 16:
McDonald’s is notorious for kidnapping people and shoving food down their throats, along with the homosexual agenda. You obviously have no idea what you are talking about.
@21 - Very good. I had originally thought about something along the same lines, until I realized that I didn't know the names of the stuff on the McDonalds menu. This homosexual certainly isn't insulted by your humor. I think it's great!
OK, so it looks like AFA and World NUT Daily are saying that McDonalds officially stated on their website that McDonalds is helping the gay agenda. They have links to everything BUT where it says that on McDonalds' site. Odd, huh???
I am going to see if I can find that on their site.
there IS a reason it's called "special sauce!" vbg
Like BK a lot better than McDs but perhaps I'll grab a cheeseburger there soon.
Off topic. CNN News: Top adviser to Maliki, BlackWater Deal "Bad news."
Wow, can't find it here - http://www.mcdonalds.com/usa/news.html
Darth_Romney @ 9:
Actually, the sexually orientation of a pedophile is that of children. Most portray themselves as straight white males.
Robert @ 7:
So, homosexuals are BAD?
Ricky Bones @ 31:
Well polygamy is actually supported by the bible. I wonder what the author was thinking when he wrote that?
Are there any real Christians left in this part of the world, or just these fake ones? I'm sure 40 years ago, these same people were cheering the murder of MLK, hoping to end the 'black agenda'. They were fake Christians then, and they're fake Christians now.
Chris H. @ 32:
Funny, I bet he hates gays, but loves lesbian porn.
McDonald's wouldn't support anything or any group if they didnt think it would help thier bottom line. Polls show that there is less and less anti-gay feeling in the USA. The AFA is a marginal group and Im sure that McDonald's welcomes the publicity for its "brave and principled" stand for the underdog...not to mention that Gays have money to spend...LOL.
johnnyRocketpants @ 33:
Funny you mention that. I had a thought on that yesterday as a civil rights leader was speaking about how they looked to God and MLK to help them in their struggle and this is the same God that whites prayed to and believed in as they tried to suppress civil rights and their leaders like MLK. Glad to see God was their for them all.
proletariatprincess @ 35:
BINGO
Wait... is this the group that said the purple Teletubbie was gay?
Or the group that said Pokémon promotes sorcery and evolution?
Ricky Bones @ 34:
Funny, I bet he hates gays, but loves lesbian porn.
Heh heh...I was thinking the exact same thing. Maybe in that case though he's 'loving the sinner but hating the sin'.
Colbert nailed these a-holes for what they are last year > http://www.truthdig.com/avbooth/item/20070508_colbert_on_dobsons_intoler...
Space Coyote @ 38:
Don't forget SongeBob and Patrick....I will never forgive them for that accusation :-)
My mother is one of these 'Fake Christains'. She's not a bad person, but everything revolves around HER version of the Bible. She is relatively wealthy, and lives in an area where she is surrounded by people like herself. It is so easy to be judgemental of other people when you surround yourself with people who follow the same rigid views,as she herself.
The next thing you know, they will boycott The Wizard of Oz. My mother told me Harry Potter promoted witchcraft and I laughed in her face. I think they want to go back to the book burning Glory Days. You know, when all fiction is bad.
Space Coyote @ 38:
Anything they don't control is gay- the jet stream, petoskey stones, quarks, rainbows...All TEH GAY!
I'm not taking up smoking if RJ Reynolds is making similar overtures.
Mc-food? No, Mc-thanks.
I just went to the AFA site because I thought this would make for a kick ass article and wanted to read their stance on other issues . . . these people are fucking nuts! I mean, a lot of them are probably just really passionate about their stance, and the fact that the Internet gives them anonymity makes them go a little extreme, but god! Check out the comments to their reaction over Obama saying he doesn't want his girls punished with an STD or baby if they make a bad choice:
http://onenewsnow.com/Election2008/Default.aspx?id=74609
I thought this McDonald's thing was a joke until I saw this. Damn, these people just don't know what's important.
Chris H. @ 11:
Right Company - Wrong Reason. Unfortunately, it DOES make a difference.
I'm still waiting for someone to explain to me, What exactly is this "Homosexual Agenda" we are suddenly hearing so much about?
Is the agenda in question best illustrated by the political inclinations of renowned "gay activists" like Roy Cohen or maybe Clay Shaw? Perhaps it is best illustrated by the political achievements of such notables as J. Edgar Hoover and Clyde Tolson.
Other hand, most references to this so-called "Homosexual Agenda" seem to imply some kind of liberal underpinnings, so these examples can't be considered representative of this agenda, can they?
I tell you, the more I try to figure it out the more I have to admit it: I am having a very hard time getting a Straight answer about the Homosexual Agenda.
Actually it was Jerry Falwell who outed the tellytubby.
I always wondered what he fell so well from?
Darn it took them a long time to figure out the gay agenda code, I mean all this time advertising big mac and his quarter pounder. Probably too subtle. unlike outing obvious targets like teletubbies, spongebob and books about penguins.

johnny, I grew up in that era in the South and let me tell you, you are correct. Those are the exact same kind of people who cheered Kings murder.
I was there. It's true.
They hated King with a passion and wanted him dead.
These people are off the brain scale....BUT WAIT....Ronald McDonald should go on national TV and state: "I AM NOT GAY!".....and remove thoes pictures of burgers and things, IF you turn them sideways they DEFINATELY look like porn stuff!....eeeeeekkkkk.

C'mon, it's as clear as day: once Mickey D's becomes dependent on teh gay $$$'s, teh gay will force them to carry Christian Baby McNuggets on the McMenu! Duh!
Robert @ 7:
Let's do approve of gays, Robert. Better that we value people for their humanity and positive contribution to society than to hypocritically judge and condemn them and define them solely by sexual preference as you have.
Get the log out of your eye before you condemn the speck in others.

Oh, almost forgot: A wider array of salads, too.
Is that what Mickey D's means by "We do it all for you"????? How lame.
The Homosexual Agenda
8:00 a.m. Wake up. Wonder where you are.

8:02 a.m. Realize you are actually in your own bed for a change. Wake stranger next to you and tell them you are late for work so won't be able to cook breakfast for them. Mutter "sorry" as you help him look for his far-flung underwear.

8:05 a.m. Tell the stranger, whose name eludes you, "It was fun. I'll give you a call," as you usher him out the door, avoiding his egregious morning-breath.

10:15 a.m. Leave office, telling your secretary you are "meeting with a client." Pretend not to notice her insubordinate roll of her eyes (or the cloying "poem" she has tacked to her cubicle wall).
10:30 a.m. Hair appointment for lowlights and cut. Purchase of Aveda anti-humectant pomade.
11:30 a.m. Run into personal trainer at gym. Pester him about getting you Human Growth Hormone. Spend 30 minutes talking to friends on your cell phone while using Hammer Strength machines, preparing a mental-matrix of which circuit parties everyone is going to and which are now passe.

12:30 p.m. Pay trainer for anabolic steroids and schedule a workout. Shower, taking ten minutes to knot your tie while you check-out your best friend's boyfriend undress with the calculation of someone used to wearing a t-back and having dollars stuffed in their crotch.
1:00 p.m. Meet someone for whom you only know his waist, chest and penis size from AOL M4M chat for lunch at a hot, new restaurant. Because the maître d' recognizes you from a gay bar, you are whisked past the Christian heterosexual couples who have been waiting patiently for a table since 12:30.
2:30 p.m. "Dessert at your place." Find out, once again, people lie on AOL.
3:33 p.m. Assume complete control of the U.S., state, and local governments (in addition to other nations' governments); destroy all healthy Christian marriages; recruit all children grades Kindergarten through 12 into your amoral, filthy lifestyle; secure complete control of the media, starting with sitcoms; molest innocent children; give AIDS to as many people as you can; host a pornographic "art" exhibit at your local art museum; and turn people away from Jesus, causing them to burn forever in Hell.
4:10 p.m. Time permitting, bring about the general decline of Western Civilization and look like you are having way too much fun doing it.
4:30 p.m. Take a disco-nap to prevent facial wrinkles from the stress of world conquest and being so terribly witty.
6:00 p.m. Open a fabulous new bottle of Malbec.

7:00 P.M. Go to Abercrombie & Fitch and announce in a loud voice, "Over!"
7:40 P.M. Stop looking at the photographic displays at Abercrombie & Fitch and go to a cool store to begin shopping.
8:30 p.m. Light dinner with catty homosexual friends at a restaurant you will be "over" by the time it gets its first review in the local paper.

12:00 a.m. "Nightcap at your place." Find out that people lie in bars, too.
I won't eat at McDonald's because there food is unhealthy. I also stop eating at Fast Food chain ever since I saw the movie Fast Food Nation and read the book.
I am not boycotting McDonald's because they support gay rights but because of the cruelty that they had inflicted among the environment, their workers, and the common people.
This the only one good thing that McDonald's had done correctly but that won't convince me to eat there.
Why does the AFA hate freedom? No porn for our troops, no college courses including postmodernism or humanism, no Harry Potter or Pokemon . . . why do these people want to take our liberties from us? Do they really hate America so much as to tell adults what to do with their lives?
Perhaps the gay and lesbian community can help influence these large fast-food chains toward healthier, more nutritional foods. Maybe there's a way for regional stores to purchase more locally grown, seasonal and (dare we say) organic ingredients?
The AFA actually serves a purpose, if nothing else it helps remind us of how far we have to go in opening minds and hearts in this world.
But before you run out and drive-through for a meal, why not check out how quick and easy it is to prepare fast, nutritious and super delicious snacks and meals at home (not to mention cheaper in the long run!)
Peace, Love and Organics!
The Hippy Gourmet
Actually McDonalds is a part of a Christofascist plot to make all the young dudes with their rock hard abs as flabby as the rest of us.
What I would like to know is this.. is the whole of America to capitulate to this organization, and only do, see, hear, feel and accept what they do. Why not put long dresses on women, make men grow beards and long hair. And lock the woman in the kitchen with only access to the bedroom at the husbands whim.
I think the country should boycott them they sound like a bunch of nuts. Has anybody suggested they be analized...sounds like the need it.
I haven't eaten at McDonalds in 5 years, but to send a big FUCK YOU AFA, I just might go get a Big Mac!
oh please....redstaters live on mickey d's...have you seen the waist lines of wingnuts???
and ronald mcdonald has always been gay
Makes me want a Big Mac and a large fries. Right. Now.
Grimmace...he's GOT to be gay, right? He meets all the AFA requirements; he's fictional and purple!
Just have to say it; Dobson's a total fruit, so deep in the closet he's found Christmas presents.
And everybody remembers when Ronald was busted while eating the hamburglar’s meat! God Damn McDonalds, God Damn America! I'm surprised the AFA hasn't teamed up with the Phelpsians; they're right up each other's ally, so to speak. Mmm, Mmm, Chicken Fucknuggets never tasted so dirty! Wooo!
This reminds me of the current scandal going on in Saskatchewan with the tory MP who made some anti-gay comments in 91. A coworker of mine was mentioning to me what an idiot he was, so I replied if he had been a republic in the US he would have been hailed as a hero. This story basically proves that. I'm glad I'm not the US anymore.
{{{7 Robert Says}}}: Yes, let’s be very approving of all those Gays. Then soon after we can add all the Pedophiles and Polygamists and………well hell, let’s just go ahead and add rapists and murderers, too! After all we’re ALL good people, even the bad ones, RIGHT? McDonalds is a coporate whore that will do ANYTHING for money!
========================
You forgot to add, the bigots and the ill-informed.
There are plenty of good reasons to boycott McDonalds. . . ., but this is not one of them!
{{{11 Chris H. Says}}}: I am supporting the AFA on this. If they can somehow organize a mass boycott of McDonalds then obesity in America will decline rapidly. Do you want Health Care for all Americans? Why bother when there won’t be any patients to take care of. The AFA: Solving obesity and healthcare though family values.
Does McDonald's cause obesity, or is it people eating too much?? Hmmm...
I almost feel sorry for McDonald's: they take all the heat. Why not Burger King and KFC etc.? Or why not people that eat a dozen doughnuts with a litre of coke for breakfast? Or people that buy the 1 lb. bag of chips, and a pound of chocolate, as a movie snack.
{{{22 baylaw73 Says}}}: McDonald’s will “aggressively promote the homosexual agenda?” [N.B. - The following is a tasteless attempt at humor, and is NOT meant to be insulting to homosexuals.]

What the f**k is the “homosexual agenda?”
=======================================================
Since you asked: back by popular demand:
Thanks to Betty Bowers, homosexuals' sneaky little secrets are now revealed to the godly:
THE HOMOSEXUAL AGENDA!
As every Christian knows, there is only one enemy that threatens our entire civilization. And I am, of course, not talking about Satan. I'm talking about those damned homosexuals! Yes, they give otherwise dull hair radiant highlights and our imperfect décor those fabulous flourishes that elude our more predictable heterosexual sensibilities, but at what price? In exchange for a little panache, we allow homosexuals to steal our children and destroy our Christian marriages. And how do they do this? With their secret masterplan -- The Homosexual Agenda!
Many a well-intentioned person has asked me, "Betty, what exactly is The Homosexual Agenda?" Well, if you have to ask, you are probably already under its pernicious influence and blithely hop-scotching your way straight to Hell. Nevertheless, the details of The Homosexual Agenda have -- up until this day -- been kept more secret than the nature of John Travolta's and Tom Cruise's marriages. But I am pleased to announce that through innumerable free vodka sea-breezes and some artful Christian skullduggery, I have gotten my hands on an authentic copy of The Homosexual Agenda. Praise the Lord!
I have had my secretaries, Miss Anne Thrope and Anita Priceczech, transcribe The Homosexual Agenda from the back of a used cocktail napkin (the original is to be placed in the Smithsonian Institute) for your convenient reference. Never again shall we be surprised by what these malevolent Nancy Boys are up to. While they may still be able to surprise us with a cunningly perfect piece of Chinese porcelain for our Biederimeier end-table, they will never again be able to surreptitiously take over our culture, families and prime-time television without God-fearing Christians being one step ahead of them! Praise the Lord!

P.D.: You mean the good ol' days of the 1930s in Deutschland? Because, in the 1500s under the Catholic Church, they didn't burn books, they were too expensive. They simply placed them on the Banned Index all civilized-like. When Nazism arose in the 1940s, then book-burning become normal. When Joel's Army-ism, the American version of Nazism arose, it began here, also.
Medieval Catholicism wasn't the best of all possible worlds, but compared to Protestantism and Nazism it was a much healthier society.
All the religion that are comparable to Christianity before Christian/Judeo were tolerant of Homosexuals. The native American held them at high regard before the Europeans arrive. Egyptians early history before Christ had no problem. It is only recently in man history that we decide that Homosexual would be consider deviant behavior.
I don't know when this happen, but I kind of have one thought, that the persecution for gay started with the Roman empire. We had Nero and Caligua in Rome that were over the top decadent lifestyle which involve homosexuality. I believe that Christianity were used to control people and to get them to take down the Roman empire with their religion. When you compare Jesus teaching to the old religious dogma of the early testament, and see how much contrast the 2 are.
My response to this inquiry was that the old testament failed and we could not live to that standard, and so god sent forth himself in the flesh to understand us better. And present us with the new covenent which is in the new testament.
My problem with that is if god is ever knowing and loving then the last commandment from Jesus to love one another and yet view homosexuality as the abomination in the eyes of god doesn't compute with me. I think someone wrote that in to take down the roman empire, and also keep women under the thumb of man.
I don't know the homosexual agenda, but the Christian agenda has more disclosure and vivid practice of manipulation to get what they want thru quoting the bible for their own purposes. I consider myself a Christian, but I don't pertain to any brand name of being a Christians. I have no problem with the word of Christ. It's all the others that speak in the behalf of Christ I have a problem with.

This is only one version of the secret and nefarious "homosexual agenda" . . .

all hail the hypno toad @ 73:
I picked up on the fact that you're not a neighbor from the south (can ya guess where I'm from?).
What I should say is that I believe that homophobia exists in Canada as it does in the US, and is as rampant inside the Conservative Party as it is in the GOP. The difference between the two nations is that in the US the homophobes are led by religious types, whereas in Canada it's people like Don Cherry who lead by subtle example.
BTW- one of the funniest things I've ever seen is when Scott Thompson(Kids In The Hall) was appearing on a talk show with Grapes, and hopped on Grapes' lap and kissed him! I never thought Cherry capable of blushing before I saw that.

Darth, excellent skackdown of that stupid troll.
paranoia @ 75:
Buddhism denies gays the right to Nirvana in this lifetime, the worst of all possible fates. And Roman culture and Greek culture both hated the type of homosexuality common today, egalitarianism. In both cultures, somebody was to be dominant, another ruled. Two men loving each others as equalled was viewed as an evil against the gods. It's not so clear-cut a Christian issue as would be believed, and I am no defender of the AFA, owing to my sexuality.
I hope they come out with a "lesbian" burger, just to piss these psycho-bastards off!
It's funny how the posters here won't tolerate hatred toward gays and lesbians, which I agree with.
But, some posters here have no problem stereotyping fat people.
Yes, we fatties can be healthy and not eat McDonald's. I know you probably won't believe that, but it's true.
And yes, there are thin people in this country who eat terrible and don't exercise. But I don't see anybody here knocking them around. Why is that?
Body size does not gage a person's health, no matter what the pharmaceutical and diet companies tell you. The amount of activity and the variety of food you eat DOES.
We're liberals, right? Well, try enlightening yourselves. Google the names of Kate Harding, Paul Campos, and Sandy Szwarc.
Prejudice is prejudice. There is no excuse to show hatred toward a person because of their body size - thin or fat.
And diets? They don't work. Period. And they cause more health problems than being fat. If you've lost weight, and keep it off for five years, you are an abnormality.
General_Rennenkampf @ 80:
Generally, the Western form of Buddhism is friendly toward gays and lesbians. And I think you are oversimplifying the position of the ancients too.
The crackdown over homosexuality (which wasn't even a word until the late 19th century) really didn't start until Christianity started dominating culture.
McDonald's clearly realizes that offending raging brain-dead homophobes will cost them less than offending friends of "teh gays."
Those in the AFA are idiots. Otherwise they would admit they're fighting a losing battle. The point is not whether or not homosexuality has become socially acceptable -- it's that homophobia is socially unacceptable.

General_Rennenkampf @ 74:
You forgot one little thing about the catholic church in the 1500s. Your right, they didn't burn books, they burned people instead.
Wow I don't feel so bad about getting my son a 20 piece chicken McNuggets today.
Maybe we should eat there more often.
Christians, have killed more fucking people than smallpox, oh wait they have a magical being on their side so its ok. The magical being gave you gays a choice so don't blame his brave followers if you picked the evil road. You can be cured of your evil in as little as two weeks, but you must want to get better. Remember anything you do,kill,steal,spread hate, rape in the name of the magical being is ok in the fight to make everyone live the way you expect. The followers of religion have since time began been a hemorrhoid on the buttocks of mankind and the advancement of civilization! They believe in "The Being" because they are frightened to face the truth that humans are alone and are not protected by anyone or any thing while they are alive nor rescued from death when their time comes. If their was a grain of truth in their believes, they would not have to lie,spin,rewrite history, suppress knowledge and truth and brainwash little kids. The being said let there be lite! Who the hell was she talking to?Who wrote it down? Did the being have a personal scribe handy? If the bible is the word of the being, how is it that she allows you to pick and choose what to live by and what you can put aside. christian is just the word chickenshit misspelled. Come on grow a pair(don't be scared little children) you live, you die nothing scary about it. Don't fear to think for yourself! don't allow the church to keep bending you and your kids over the cross just because you are slow on the uptake or scared shitless that you don't have a magical body guard. ** Re- mcpoison I saw a video that put some of their fries under glass, 8 weeks later their was not a spot of mold or anything on fries, what in the hell are those things?
Robert @ 7:
Yea, and before you know it McDonalds will be welcoming homophobes, hate mongers and bigots such as yourself into the fold. When will it all end?

Sarah: The Western form of Buddhism bears about as much resemblance to real Buddhism as Mao Zedong does to Confucius. Western Buddhists practice a watered-down easy-peasy form of the faith that doesn't cost anything. Don't mistake the Americo-European wishy-washy nonsense for what is real Buddhism.
Diamondmc: So did Protestants. Wanna know why you don't hear much about that? This country's mostly Protestant-flavored in Christianity that is every bit as watered-down nonsense as what your average Western Buddhist believes.
C-I ain't writing that name, too lazy: Communism murdered in decades what it took Orthodoxy, Catholicism, and Protestantism almost two millenium to accomplish. Capitalism has murdered just as many, but Capitalism is separate from anything resembling a real Christianity. Real Christians, even the Torquemada types, didn't believe in greed. Now, you'll bring up Pizarro and Cortez, but those people simply said "GOLD! Oh, yes, and um, maybe converting the souls that live after we get our GOLD!"
I'd take Torquemada, Basil II, and Charlemagne, and even Theodosius II over Mao, Stalin, Pol Pot, Tito, Ceasceau, and Lenin. At least the religious types played by the rule of let some people live to be converted. The Communists would just kill indiscriminately. You had more chance to live under the Inquisition than under the Red Guards.
Whats so fucked up/funny about it is that the "homosexual agenda" is just to have equal rights.
CEO,citizens,eyes,open @ 87:
Try melting one of their shakes.
I just realized, Iran would be the perfect country for the AFA to move. Not only could they increase the Christian population of the country, but there are no McDonalds and apparently no homosexuality.
to general@90 you are absolutely right, the absolution of capitalism is " It's just business".killed you,raped you? Its only business. ---oh well thats ok then.
The Homosexual Agenda:
1) Own Spongebob
2) Take over McDonalds.
3) Disown Andy Dick
4) "Queer-Eye" every DIY show on Learning and Discovery channel
...
CEO,citizens,eyes,open @ 94:
Exactly. Communism's flaws are legion. But Capitalism has equally numerous flaws, and has killed just as many over its existence. To magnify Communism's flaws and ignore Capitalism's is...I'll use (GASP, OH NOES) a Christian term: sinful.
Robert @ 7:
Well, I was going to reply to Robert, but it looks like the ass bugged out after one post. Figures...ignorant idiots like him can't debate themselves out of a paper bag, not to speak of actually defending their position(s).
I like to ask fools like him when he decided to be a heterosexual; it seems to me that if homosexuality is a choice, then heterosexuality must also be. I asked this of a gay bashing person on ThinkProgress.org last year, and he actually replied. He said that he discovered he was a heterosexual at the age of 10 after looking at pictures of women wearing underwear in the Sears catalog. Classic.
Yeah, there's nothing homoerotic about their "special sauce".
Well, isn't it clear what we all need to do here?
Personally I plan on driving over to Target in my Ford to buy a new DVD player; then swing by Wal-Mart to pick up a copy of "Shark Tale" and on heading back home stop in at McDonald's for a burger and fries (always did love their fries) - pop that "Shark Tale" in my new DVD player from Target, prop my feet up and watch a flick while flicking off AFA w/ my middle finger.
General Rennenkampf@90: Seeing as in the 1500s in Europe, outside of parts of the netherlands, and England, the rest of Europe was ruled by the catholic church. It was the French catholics who killed over 6000 Huguenots for being hertics. In England Queen Elizabeth sent no one to the stake for being catholic. King Philip of spain burnt thousands in the inquisition. Most of the blood in Europe in the 1500s fall on the hands of the catholic church.
Believe me, there are worse things to be pissed off at McDonald's for than "teh gay". Their practice of charging too much for crappy food is a good place to start.
Although, I must admit I really like the Paul Newman Italian dressing they have with their salads. Can't seem to find it in the grocery store though...
general@96 I think some new words are in order for clarity ,christianity is hypocritrolism? I leave the others for your enlightened intellect. have fun--ceo
Man ... this AFA group is SO afraid of Teh Gays they just can't see straight. (pun)
And they say Atheist are attacking THEM. We're not, but their so paranoid it probably looks like everyone is attacking them. Meanwhile, THEY are attacking everyone.
Go figger

let's boycott AFA! F*uck 'Em
diamondmc @ 100:
You are dead-out wrong about Queen Elizabeth I. The English Catholic Church had more than a few martyrs at her hands. Oliver Cromwell, the Protestant dictator who took over England just a generation or two after her struck the Catholic Irish so genocidally that they still curse people with Cromwell's name. In the Thirty Year's War, we Protestants caused the blood of Catholics to flow as high as horses' bridles. In North America, the early English colonies followed the slightly milder policy of banning heretical Christian sects with Massachuttsetts (ironically one of the more devout states, still) the only one in the hanging business. The Catholics were not persecutors of Protestants, and Protestants innocent victims...
General_Rennenkampf @ 106:
should read "always" in the last sentence after Catholics and "not always" after Protestants. Nice to know, incidentally, that the old American tradition of hatin' on the Catholics is alive and well on the Left, too.
Gee, and here all this time I thought AFA stood for American Fascist Association, especially since this group of "concerned" U.S. citizens have backed so many Fascist Republicans for political office, Fascist Republicans who've sought to suspend our Constitution, trash our Bill of Rights, endorsed torture in place of our laws and international accords, as well as having blown up the wall separating church and state, while turning the news media into a Fascist Republican propaganda machine, and packed the U.S. federal judiciary with a bunch of Fascist Republican judges who have the goal of making these Fascist Republican policies permanent. But the most bizarre thing of all is that these Fascist Republicans have screwed the futures of their own children and grand-children in America because of their warped and twisted totalitarian schemes, undermining the core principles of our free, liberal, democratic nation...somewhat calling into question the sanity of the members of AFA and so many other right-wing Fascist Republican groups. These fools have made all Americans poorer.
The Oracle @ 108:
These people resemble an American Nazism much more than an American Fascism. They're obsessed more with race and supremacy of empire than with an all-powerful state and just ordinary opportunism the way Italian Fascists were.
I boycott McDonalds for other issues just as I do Wal-Mart. Most groups that become a target because of association with the gay community gets more of my business-but I can't cave on this one. The AFA are stupid because they have no concrete facts to support most of what they "stand" for. At least I did my homework before starting my boycott 10 years ago. And it had nothing to do with gays-it has to do with poisoning people with the content of their so called food.
To everyone that wonders what the "Homosexual Agenda" is, here is the answer. We are all fully aware of the fact that many major religions and the Republican Party in particular are full of closeted homosexuals. The "Agenda" is a loose set of rules that this group of people follows in an attempt to tell the rest of us how to live our lives. So you see, the "Homosexual Agenda" is REALLY a Republican/Christianity thing....
When the American Family Association have a fund raising Gala
Do they call it AFAG?
God wants spiritual fruit not Religious nuts
Humans have one distinct advantage over animals. We make choices. Everyone is searching for something, and Christians have found that once you have accepted Christ in your life the void is no longer left unfilled.
If a person chooses to use their body for something other than the purpose it was designed for, that's their choice. Unfortunately, Lust taints that decision making process, and perhaps the confusion that has come from our broken down society contributes to the need for gay people to search for love and companionship from their own sex.
No one knows, and it's not like anyone is going to stop people from defiling their bodies. I say just leave it alone. All of this was so much better in the closet.
Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve!
(I do not think you will post my comment on your website.)
Let me say first of all I'm not a homosexual, I have not arrived If I die today and get what I deserve I would wait up in a hot burning hell.
I'm not trusting in a church or in any good thing that I may have done to get to heaven. But I believed the only way to heaven, is God give his only begotten son Jesus to die on the cross shedding His sinless blood to pay for all of are dirty rotten sins three days latter He arose from the dead.
The only way to heaven is when we trust only what Jesus done nothing else to pay for are sins, ask Him to forgive your sins and receive Him (invite Him) into are heart and life. When he comes in he will also help us to live a new life.
Believing this would it be right to agree with McDonald's or any other company who supports those things the Bible don't? Like prostitution, Adultery, Homosexuality,orgies or any thing else the Bible don't.
If you read in the Bible Romans first chapter verses 24-32 you will get some idea why I don't agree with McDonald's.
