[The other fundies have been talking about boycotting Burger King because of their "Proud Whopper".]
I agree with your boycotting Burger King. There should be a price to pay if they choose to promote the homosexual propaganda.
As a side note, the word "whopper" has a secondary definition of "an extravagant or monstrous lie", which I would say gives a very appropriate meaning to their "proud whopper" program.

Huh, and these people think leftist boycotts are tyranny. But it's okay when WE do it, is apparently their thinking.
I'm not sure this one is just a fundie sentiment. I've seen a lot of conservatives, even the moderate ones, do the same thing.
At anon
For the last fucking time, these two issues are not just two sides of the same coin.
Chik-Fil-A donates a portion of proceeds to an organization that supports the death penalty for gays. Burger King is donating to a scholarship program for LGBT youth. One wants to kill gay people. The other wants to send them to college.
"There should be a price to pay if they choose to promote the homosexual propaganda."
Always is.
There are very few BK's in my area, and I don't often eat fast food, but I'm thinking a Whopper sounds pretty good about now.
So why isn't Faux News railing about this? Back when the Chick-Fil-A boycott was happening, they were screaming about "economic terrorism." But when the right boycotts something (which they do A LOT, just look at all the AFA boycotts), they're just standing up for their Christian values.
No, it's fair to boycott -- as long as they admit it's fair to boycott Chick-Fil-A over their bigotry.
It's only when one's considered okay and the other's considered dirty pool that there's a problem.
After I saw the commercial, I went out and got a whopper. It was delicious. Also, you can get barbeque bacon ones now. Yummy. On a sad note, I fear I will never again fit into my size 4 jeans. Oh, well.
I agree with your boycotting Burger King.
I don't go to fast food joints myself, but for different reasons. I just prefer to eat real food and not greasy junk crap that will make you look like a tub of lard in short order.
If the Rapture Ready people realized that *not* eating at BK might actually lead to healthy eating habits, they'd probably go running back there, out of fear of being "un'mercan".
"As a side note, the word "whopper" has a secondary definition of "an extravagant or monstrous lie"
As a side note II, the word "whopper" can also be used as a euphemism , which I would say gives a very appropriate meaning to their "Tube Steak" programme.
And Burger King always has it his way...! [/4chan /b/] >:D

Meh, how many people here are boycotting Chick-Fil-A over LGBT issues?
I am!
I got a new Chick-Fil-A next to where I live around half a year ago and I have never and will never visit it. I vote with my wallet.
Sorry to bust your EXTRAVAGANT PONTIFICATION, but this "double meaning" is completely ad-hoc and a coincidence.
The salient issue here is the boycott, however. I hope you realise that if you boycott Burger King, there are many, many people out there who will boycott your preshus Chick-Fil-A.
Oh my gosh, Rapture Ready knows that some words have more than one definition?? Stop the presses!
Whopper is also the name of a Pound Puppy. Wonder how that fits in?image
Not a fan of fast food, but it's definitely a good promotion. Though, I guess it's only available in San Francisco? Would've been a lot cooler if it was nation wide.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
