  • That is the problem with everything. They try and make it better without realizing the old is fine.

I certainly hope The chancellor at University of Kansas  will look to what happened to MIZU when you allow a small minority, absent of a legitimate grievance, take precedence over the majority and tell the misfits to pound sand up their vejays.

The Kansas City Star reports that Chick-Fil-A previously had a spot tucked away in the basement of an obscure building on campus. But, after a new contract, the eatery was moved to a new and improved location. The business was also given a new sponsorship via "Chick-Fil-A coin flip" before every home football game the next three years.

KU’s Sexuality & Gender Diversity Faculty and Staff Council sent a letter to Chancellor Doug Girod this week, saying "KU granted Chick-fil-A, a bastion of bigotry, a prime retail location in the heart of our campus."

"Moving Chick-fil-A to the Union and granting it a role at the start of all home football games violates the feelings of safety and inclusion that so many of us have striven to create, foster, and protect on campus, and sends a message that the Union, KU Athletics, and the administration at large are more concerned about money and corporate sponsorship than the physical, emotional, and mental well being of marginalized and LGBTQ people," the professors added.

"The culture of Chick-fil-A fosters hate and discrimination on multiple levels. In short, Chick-fil-A on KU’s campus stands in direct contrast to the university’s mission of fostering a multicultural, inclusive environment," they declared.

Evidently these professors would prefer that University of Kansas foster a climate of bigotry, intolerance and discrimination against pious adherents of Christian confessions that believe in the reality of the moral dictates expressed in Holy Scripture.

Last I checked religion is one of the categories non-discrimination laws cover, and they do so uniformly and with exception, while the inclusion of sexual proclivities among the categories is less universal.

And when they behead your own people in the wars which are to come, then you will know what this was all about.

Hopefully UK's administration gives these profs a curt, "No!" OTOH, Lawrence is not a tiny town, and CfA should remind UK that that they could find a location not on campus ... remind UK who lays some of the golden eggs for them.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

What bigotry?  I've never known CFA to deny service to anyone.  Your money is good at CFA whether you are a pervert or not. 

This is all part of an effort to force everyone to accept perversion as normal, natural and sanctioned by God.  Say anything against perversion and you are automatically a bigot.  These people are not happy to boycott CFA.  They want to utterly destroy the company.

However, a merciful God has not allowed that to happen.  CFA may not be welcome on university campuses, but all the ones I've been to have lines out the door.  They do a booming business.  And I believe God will continue to reward CFA so long as they hold true to their beliefs.

Tell the "Sexuality & Gender Diversity Faculty and Staff Council" to go take a flyin' one...

And that's putting it as mildly as I can for a family forum such as this!

...

While the original, failed, :silly: , CfA boycott was over the founder's comment about marriage, the current beef is that CfA donates to charities the activists have labelled anti-homosexual.

Chick-fil-A ceased its donations to all political groups and those organizing against LGBT rights in 2012, and it now makes its charitable donations though the Chick-fil-A Foundation. However, the chicken chain's donations to two major organizations — the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and the Salvation Army — continue to draw criticism.
