It's a business. Christians like to act like they support them because of their Christian stance. That's not why Christians like them. Christians like them because their sandwiches are good, really good. Think about it. If they had the most horrible chicken sandwiches ever, Christians might commend their position but they would buy their chicken sandwiches elsewhere.

It looks like the company is no longer funding certain charities which oppose the LGBTQ community. It doesn't necessarily signal a change in the company's culture.

But I should add that the company culture is quite obviously Protestant. And one of my critiques of Protestantism is that there doesn't seem to be a single position that they won't abandon if they think enough of the world disagrees with them. The Southern Baptist Convention is incrementally adding various LGBTQ-friendly positions to their programs and statement(s) of faith. They nearly embraced abortion, artificial birth control and all the rest back in the sixties so this shouldn't be a major surprise to anybody.

In the end, I believe that ultimately Protestants stand for nothing and should not be depended upon as allies in anything that really matters.

How disappointing.

It's very disappointing considering how many folks went out of their way supporting since 4 years or so ago when the first boycotts were attempted and their sales actually sky rocketed rather than declined. Personally I like the regional (Southern) Bojangles chain better. But when I move from the South to PA they will not get any preferential treatment from me, they will be on the same level as Hardees and 5 Guys.

And that, ladies and gentleman, is what we call cowardice.

Jesus said in Revelation 3:16 that if you are lukewarm He will spew you out. Fear God, not man, folks.

Homosexuality and transgenderism are both sinful abominations; the Fellowship of Christian Athletes is a righteous, God-fearing group of sports players, and they should not have stopped donating.

We can't let these degenerates break the bonds of brotherhood between Christians.

The absurd thing is their sales GREW while they stood their ground and resisted pressure from the alphabet people. I hope they massively slump now - but the alphabet people won't care, they have their pound of flesh.

Ingrates.
