  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Controversial street preacher David Grisham shared video this week from inside a Wisconsin Subway restaurant, where an employee acknowledged she was refusing to serve him and three other men. The group, who traveled to the Republican National Convention from Texas, were wearing T-shirts with messages such as “Homo Sex Is Sin, Romans 1” and “Abortion Is Murder.”

Now some Christians are urging Subway to respond; others are threatening to boycott the fast-food chain. “Christophobic bigotry should not be tolerated,” Grisham wrote on Facebook. “Please give Subway corporate a call.”

David Grisham Refused Service at Subway

A 30-second video circulating on social media shows Grisham and his companions trying to order sandwiches at a Subway in Waunakee, Wisconsin. When one man asks a female employee, “Are you refusing to serve customers?” she nods. The person filming the encounter says, “I want her to say it again.” The woman then replies, “I am refusing you service.”

Sounds like this guy is trolling to me.
People troll. Bake me a cake. At least this guy didn’t demand a Subway sandwich that somehow spelled out his message. Like some people in Colorado do.

No shirt, no shoes, no messages I don’t like, no service.

Is it required of Christians in their religion to wear offensive shirts? If it isn't, I don't see how this is problematic. "We reserve the right to refuse service" is still a generally held notion in any service-oriented business.
