Customers Cry Fowl Over Chick-fil-A’s Same-Sex Marriage Message

LGBT, , ,

A Utah Chick-fil-A franchise recently posted photos celebrating a same-sex marriage, sparking backlash from customers.

The Washington Stand reports the restaurant posted images of two men with the caption “CONGRATULATIONS TO THE HAPPY COUPLE!” The post has since been removed.

This incident highlights ongoing problems with Chick-fil-A’s corporate direction and leadership.

While companies like Walmart, Target, Toyota, John Deere, Tractor Supply, Harley Davidson, and Lowe’s, as well as major financial institutions have rolled back pro-LGBT and DEI policies in response to consumer backlash, Chick-fil-A continues moving in the opposite direction.

The restaurant chain still employs a vice president of diversity, equity, and inclusion. It quietly renamed its DEI program “Better at Together,” but it continues to promote the same DEI principles.

It’s obvious that consumers are tired of pro-LGBT pandering by Corporate America. In 2023, Bud Light managed to single-handedly overthrow itself as the number-one beer in America after sending transgender social media influencer Dylan Mulvaney a novelty can of Bud Light with Mulvaney’s picture on it. Target has quietly replaced its LGBT Pride merchandise, and entertainment giants like Pixar and Disney have removed pro-LGBT elements from their storylines.

Pro-LGBT and DEI initiatives promote flawed ideologies that do not ensure individuals are valued, heard, or included. Employees who hold Biblical views of marriage or gender risk losing their jobs in workplaces that have adopted DEI policies. None of that is good for our economy or our country.

Chick-fil-A would do well to learn from other corporations’ mistakes and abandon its pro-LGBT pandering.

A Troubling Number of Women Use Marijuana During Pregnancy

Marijuana

A recent study shows a troubling number of women use marijuana during pregnancy.

Marijuana has been shown time and time again to hurt pregnant women, unborn children, and newborns. It also is believed to harm female fertility and increase chromosome errors.

In October, researchers from the University of Michigan released a study showing at least one in six pregnant Michigan women uses marijuana. Researchers noted that the number may be as high as one in four in some parts of the state.

The study published in Addiction relied on health data from more than 1,000 women at 20 clinics serving 11 hospitals across Michigan.

A growing body of scientific research shows marijuana is dangerous.

Marijuana use has been tied to deadly heart problems, such as heart attack, heart failure, and stroke.

Researchers say marijuana doubles a person’s risk of death from heart disease.

And heavy marijuana use is strongly linked to an increased risk of oral cancer as well as head and neck cancers.

All of this underscores what we have said for years: Marijuana may be many things, but “harmless” simply is not one of them.
