McDonald's Recants its Support for the Homosexual Agenda

After approximately five months, it appears that McDonald's has felt enough pressure from their primary market (traditional families with traditional values) that they have ended their association with the pro-homosexual activist group National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce. Richard Ellis, a McDonald's VP, resigned from the board of directors of NGLCC and his seat on the board will not be replaced. Officials have also stated that McDonald's will not be renewing their membership come December. This is a step in the right direction for the fast food giant and AFA (American Family Association) has ended their boycott.

McDonald's: From "I'm Lovin' It" to "I'm Promoting the Homosexual Agenda While Alienating My Largest Customer Base"

For those of us who are not familiar with McDonald's most recent assault on family values, the company has donated $20,000 to the anti-family activist group The National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce. This is not the first time McDonald's has acted inappropriately, but it should be their last. With the donation, a senior executive (Richard Ellis, VP of Communications) from McDonald's USA has been placed on the board of directors. Following in the pattern of previous anti-family actions such as sponsorship of the sexually-explicit San Francisco Gay Pride Parade, sponsoring training from Out & Equal™ Workplace Advocates for homosexuals on how to aggressively promote homosexuality within the company they work for, and utilizing McDonald's spokesman Bill Whitman to suggest to the Washington Post that those who oppose same-sex marriage are motivated by hate, it is no surprise that the company continues to find new means of promoting the homosexual agenda on a national avenue. Companies such as McDonald's which have become American icons of family values over the decades have seemingly lost touch with their largest customer base to adopt a new vision
of immorality which is contributing to the destruction of the moral fabric of society. It is time to put an end to the "super-sizing" of wickedness. Please join me in boycotting McDonald's (click here) until they understand that our money is not for those who hate and seek to destroy traditional families and traditional values.

Gay from Birth?

The question of the debate over homosexuality between the secular and Christian world is not a question of whether or not homosexuality is genetic. We can both agree that heterosexuals have a natural inclination to be attracted to members of the opposite sex; however, this inclination does not justify the sins of fornication or adultery. This is a question of our response to a Holy God Who has communicated through both general (in nature) and special (the Bible) revelation that homosexuality is an abomination. This does not make the fornicator or the adulterer any less guilty in the eyes of God, but it does call into question our response to God. Whether an individual desires sex prior to an appropriate marriage covenant, sex in addition to an appropriate marriage covenant, sex with animals, or sex with members of the same sex, all of these have been classified as sinful attitudes/behaviors by Scripture and necessitate the need for fallen men and women to repent in obedience to their Creator. While I believe the research that has been presented thus far to be found quite wanting, even if there was an apparent "gay gene" (which I find to be incredibly unlikely considering that God created man and woman "very good"), this in no way relinquishes the responsibility of apparent homosexuals to live a life of celibacy. This raises the question of marriage itself; but again, our response to a Holy God is paramount and we find the parameters of the covenant of marriage defined and established by the Word of God. This means that marriage is reserved for one man and one woman for the duration of the life of either party. In the midst of a sinful, fallen world, God's standards seem much too high for us. The fact of the matter is, they are too high for any human being to meet. This is only a reminder of the completeness of our depraved sinfulness and the necessity for a perfect Savior in Christ Jesus.
