Chick-fil-A’s Dan Cathy asks white
Christians to repent of racism

Original Article

Posted By: mc squared, 6/18/2020 9:53:19 AM

White Christians should repent for racism and fight for their black brothers and sisters, Chick-fil-A's CEO urged, after weeks of protests over police brutality and the death of Rayshard Brooks. Cathy spoke about racism in America during a 70-minute roundtable discussion Sunday at Passion City Church in Atlanta. Brooks had been shot dead two days earlier by an Atlanta police officer in a Wendy's parking lot, sparking protests. Most of us, white people, we're out-of-sight-out-of-mind oblivious to it," Cathy said about injustice against black Americans. "We cannot let this moment pass."

Et Tu Chickie? When did Christians become lilylivered cowards?

It’s not racism, it’s the crime! And what do these black people want...whites to lie prostrate before them? Tell them to clean up their act and join American culture. Then they’ll get the respect they want if they’re not getting it already.

I cannot remember the last time I heard a racist statement from any friend of mine. (I have heard lots of racist talk from Leftists in the media.) Mr. Cathy, I suggest you start hanging around with a better class of people.

While we're at it, would some give the rest of the world a Coke and teach them how to sing too? Christianity is THE most inclusive faith in the world, especially of women, as compared with that other travesty that begins with "I".

I don't mind so much speaking against racism. It's virtually a requirement now. But apologizing for a employee wearing a "Back the Blue" shirt (which, ironically, had nothing to do with the police) and shining LeCrea's shoes on stage is just plain pandering and a bridge too far. What a shame.

Will this white guilt ridden CEO place his restaurants in the crime ridden sections of Minneapolis, Chicago, St Louis and other Democrat controlled cities? Charity begins at home, Mr Cathy. We can assume that his charitable home is surely far removed from these dangerous neighborhoods.

I have enjoyed the occasional CFA spicy chicken sandwich but I fear my last one was indeed my last. S. Truett Cathy must be whirling in his grave as his son strives to destroy the business. As one poster opined, they may as well join the rest of the godless and open on Sunday and provide non-gender bathrooms. The Left have taken our schools, our children, our history, our books, our entertainment, our news, our freedom to worship - there are perilously few hills left to die on. greyseal

It’s not about racism; it’s about control. That’s why the narrative continually changes. They could have every white person down on their knees, giving every cent they have for reparations, and the goal posts would change again. Ever try to win an argument with a control freak? The moment you make a salient point, they immediately shift to another—sometimes unrelated—point. None of this will ever end, until decent people understand this. Acquiescing does not make you a good person. Accepting a control freak’s terms unconditionally doesn’t make you a good Christian. It makes you a pawn.

1. Their breakfast biscuits are dry and crumbly. McD's is much better. Actually several local filling station's biscuits in my opinion rank as the best. 2. I like the chicken sandwich but there are others like Zaxby's that are just as good. 3. And now that Wendy's has started toasting their buns (well... at least at one location) their chicken sandwich may be much improved. Though their Molotov toasting method may prevent me from patronizing that location.

OK, I see.....we must be understanding of their vandalism and other crimes because the perps are frustrated?? Who among us hasn't been frustrated from time to time? Long wait times at the grocery checkout, in doctor offices, in traffic, taking a vacation day from work to wait for an appointment who never appeared and did not call to apologize. These are just a short list of things that frustrate me but I never thought I could express my frustration by vandalizing a business. I have also been shoved by a black female while I was shopping. I was debating between two items I was thinking of purchasing and I suppose I was too slow in my deliberations; she wanted to shop the same items so she shouldered me aside. As I recall I didn't go back and loot the store or attack that woman. We handle ourselves based on maturity and consideration for others. Those are tools that are ridiculed by these criminals.

I don't have a racist bone in my body! However, I'm also not blind to see what has been happening in the African American community for decades. 75% of children born to single mothers. Crime out of control in their parts of major cities? Black on Black crime skyrocketing... I'm not going to apologize for something that I haven't done or thought! As a Christian we are taught Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. THAT is what I believe and practice! And I will give no preference to any "aggrieved" group of "victims"!!!

Funny. Squishy, weak spined Churchian who bends to the World instead of God, lecturing actual Christians who bend to GOD, not the World. You dishonor the fine legacy of your family Mr. Cathy. Hope you invested your money well, because the destruction of your company is about to commence. Do you not realize yet that you do not apologize to immoral people for actually wanting to follow and obey God? I am sorry sir, that you have caved to those people.

That someone can deliberately categorize human beings as "white," act as if that actually is a meaningful category, and then apply moral judgment to them as a group while decrying racism illustrates the essential absurdity inherent the fictitious concept of race. The concept of race as a way of thinking about human beings is inherently illogical and socially destructive. The application of that concept in the form of an accusation is a vile and dishonorable act.

We do not repent for anything "collectively". There is no such thing as corporate or collective guilt. Cathy and others who are accepting the idea that by being "white" we must be inherently racist, because we are not black. That's silly. The US is a majority "white" nation, and there is nothing wrong with that. Do we condemn Africa for being "black" or China or any other country for one or another feature being a majority? Besides, do we see people desperately trying to get INTO those countries? or here? Do incoming ethnic groups have some struggles? Ask the Irish, ask the Italians, ask the Jews, we could go on and on. Cathy is falling under the Maoist spell of collective sin and collective punishment pushed by BLM and no doubt antifa doctrine as a catalyst also. Most likely this is a big doorway for the reparations movement: it doesn't matter whether or not you owned slaves or supported slavery or any of the segregation laws and activities as the Democrats did, all the way to LBJ, and i'll say all the way to Senator Robert Byrd (claimed he gave up his Grand Kleagle's robes) so did Ralph Northam (plus the blackface make-up) (there are more, but leave that aside). It doesn't matter to the fascist Democrats when you emigrated here, or from what horrors you escaped. They must dominate and control, and they are following the Maoist pattern of nightmares. Way back at the beginning of President Trump's presidency i said that the kind of virulent and irrational hate directed at DJT (and us vicariously) is a lethal poison injected into the body politik. People like Cathy who weakly submit are helping fuel the implosion. According to demolition experts, you only need a few well-place charges to bring down a massive structure. They mean to destroy this Republic, and Cathy just pitched in.

If you have never committed a racist act, discriminated against anyone, missed a promotion due to racial selection and paid tens of thousands of dollars in taxes some of which is distributed to African-Americans children and able body men on the dole, you don't need to ask for forgiveness and you don't need Mr. Brooks telling you how to practice your faith. I'm appalled that such an ignorant statement could be made under the guise of Christianity. Mr. Brooks had a forum to advance Christianity, but instead of speaking about pro-life, etc., he condemned people he knows nothing about with his backhand comments. Confess your own sins, Mr. Brooks, you must have lot of them if this is how you conduct yourself.

If you get as many emails from all of these businesses as I do, you’ll find they are all apologizing and saying they will do better regarding race relations. Mr. Cathy is a Christian and Christians believe in hate the sin and love the sinner, so I’m not offended by what he said. I believe they are all afraid now because the BLM and Antifa seem to have the upper hand. Thank, media. I will just tell these businesses I didn’t realize they were racists before I read their emails, and maybe I should shop elsewhere. If you choose not to eat at Chick-fil-A, you’d better not eat at most every other place because they’re all pretty much on the same page.

The United Teachers of Los Angeles (UTLA), the largest local teachers’ union in California, rejected Governor Gavin Newsom’s school reopening plan on Monday, calling it “”a recipe for propagating structural racism.” The plan, which was announced by Newsom and Democratic leaders in the state legislature, provides $6.6 billion for schools to accelerate the reopening process as coronavirus cases drop. “$2 billion would fund safety measures to support in-person instruction, such as personal protective equipment, ventilation upgrades and COVID-19 testing. $4.6 billion would fund expanded learning opportunities, such as summer school, tutoring and mental health services,” the governor’s office said in a press release.

Dr. Sherri Tenpenny is an American osteopathic physician who is making some disturbing claims about the dangers to human health from the new vaccines being produced by companies such as Pfizer, Moderna, and AstraZenica — dangers she predicts will manifest themselves over the next three to six months or so. These mRNA vaccines contain instructions for building antibodies to the spike protein that has been identified on the surface of the COVID virus. On her website, vaxterr.com, Dr. Tenpenny explains how there are two primary types of white blood cells called macrophages: type 1 (M1) kills the pathogen cells, and type 2 (M2) cleans up dead cells and promotes

These are crazy times. A pandemic led to national quarantine; to self-induced recession; to riot, arson, and looting; to a contested election; and to a riot at the U.S. Capitol. In response, are we focusing solely on upping the daily vaccination rate? Getting the country back to work? Opening the schools as the virus attenuates? Ensuring safety in the streets? Or are we descending into a sort of madness? It might have been understandable that trillions of dollars had to be borrowed to keep a suffocating economy breathing. But it makes little sense to keep borrowing $2 trillion a year to prime an economy now set to roar back

A rocket strike on a US base in Iraq by a group believed to have links to Iran has wounded several Americans and killed a foreign contractor. More than a dozen 107mm rockets were last night fired at the military complex in Erbil airport that has hosted troops deployed as part of the international alliance fighting ISIS since 2014. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said he was 'outraged' and vowed to 'hold accountable those responsible' without giving details on the injured Americans. The bombardment was claimed by a shadowy group calling itself 'Guardians of Blood,' which US forces believe is one of many which have  CORRECTION*

Nearly half of the wind turbines in the state of Texas froze in recent winter weather, hurting state power supplies, according to state authorities. The Austin American-Statesman reported Sunday: Nearly half of Texas’ installed wind power generation capacity has been offline because of frozen wind turbines in West Texas, according to Texas grid operators. Wind farms across the state generate up to a combined 25,100 megawatts of energy. But unusually moist winter conditions in West Texas brought on by the weekend’s freezing rain and historically low temperatures have iced many of those wind turbines to a halt. As of Sunday morning, those iced turbines comprise

So you know that warning label they put on aerosol cans, right? The one that says something to the effect of “Do not use near open flame or store at high temperature”? As the Missouri lady below found out the hard way, they meant that. Although in her defense, she just left an aerosol can in her hot car too long, but you get the point. /break for tweet/ There are all sorts of warning labels on all sorts of products, many of which fall somewhere in between common sense and downright silly.

As we reported two days ago, Joe Biden completely made no sense when he was trying to explain the Wuhan coronavirus relief bill. It was really bad and it explains why they’re afraid to have him deliver an address to Congress or do any kind of a real solo press conference, because at this point they have to be afraid this is all going to fall apart if he does anything live and this all becomes too obvious to the American people. But there’s only so long that they can hold this off. And it’s getting worse, as video today revealed. Biden was holding an event to announce the nomination

Democrat Senator Joe Manchin (WV) appears to have started to shift his views on the filibuster with remarks that he made on two news shows on Sunday morning.The shift from Manchin comes after he has repeatedly stated that he would not vote to end the filibuster, despite pressure from the far-Left. During the interviews on Sunday, Manchin repeatedly claimed that he was not open to ending the filibuster because he did not want to strip the minority party of their power in the Senate, but signaled that he was open to changing it.Fox News host Chris Wallace asked Manchin if he would consider “reforming the filibuster” if “Republicans

Prince Harry’s American wife accused his family of hateful racism against her baby, claimed they refused to protect her and drove her to the point of suicide.She made the incendiary and implausible charge that when she was pregnant with Archie, the royal family decreed that her unborn son would be denied the title of “prince” because her mixed race meant he might have dark skin.

Nancy Pelosi’s top priority is to turn America into a one-party nation ruled by Democrats. Her bill HR 1 trashes the U.S. Constitution in an attempt to rig the system and make it virtually impossible to elect a Republican president or Congress again. It’s a power grab. The bill eviscerates state voting laws and forces all the states to conform to a set of rules that includes automatic voter registration. Anyone who goes to a DMV or applies for food stamps, Medicaid or other social services, or attends a public college will be automatically enrolled to vote. Noncitizens are obligated to identify themselves and opt out,

President Biden on Monday seemed to forget Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin’s name at a White House event—calling the Pentagon chief “the guy who runs that outfit over there.” Biden was announcing the nomination of two female generals to lead US military combatant commands. “And I want to thank the sec—the, the, ah former general. I keep calling him general, but my, my—the guy who runs that outfit over there,” Biden said.(Snip) Earlier at the event, Biden mentioned the Defense Department leader by his name, “Secretary Austin,” while appearing to read from a teleprompter.

I’m probably second to none in my dislike for Meghan Markle. There’s something unattractive about a mature woman marrying into the British Royal family with one of the world’s most expensive weddings, hanging out with the Queen, living in insane luxury…and then whining non-stop about the horror of her life. There’s something even less appealing when that woman accuses the Royal family of race hatred. And the problem is that, when it comes to that left-wing diva, Meghan Markle, it’s hard to believe most of what she says. After weeks of hype, CBS finally televised Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah.

Rep. Steve Cohen vowed to renew the push to remove former FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover’s name from the bureau’s downtown Washington headquarters, according to an interview released Monday. Appearing on Yahoo! News’ Skullduggery podcast, the Tennessee Democrat said the effort is getting a fresh look after the release of a new movie highlighting the FBI’s secret program to discredit civil rights activists. The Washington Times in 2019 first reported Democrats’ bid to strip the longtime FBI director’s name from the bureau’s headquarters. Mr. Cohen said the impetus to revive the bid is the new movie, “Judas and the Black Messiah.” The movie details

“There must have been a moment, at the beginning, when we could have said –-no. But somehow we missed it.” Tom Stoppard The millions of Americans who were paying attention throughout the 2020 election campaign all became painfully aware of the fact that Joe Biden’s cognitive abilities were slipping and slipping fast. His wife, as the person closest to him, should have been the one to call the campaign quits in order to reduce stress on the man. Instead, apparently so anxious to become the First Lady by any means necessary, Mrs. Biden continued to push her failing husband’s campaign forward as if he were mentally qualified.
