First, to my gay friends, I am deeply sorry. You've probably seen the same disgusting Facebook posts I have the last few days. No doubt, you're even more hurt and angered by them than I am.  All those self-righteous posts have probably just reaffirmed your belief that Christians and anyone else who oppose marriage equality hate you and want to tear your family apart. But they are NOT representing the Christ that I know who loves you so much that He died for you. On "Chick-Fil-A Appreciation Day", I posted this on Facebook:  I'm kinda somewhere in the middle with the whole Chick-Fil-A controversy - I believe in liberty, free speech, and voting with your feet. I love that we have the freedom to choose whether we do business with Chick-Fil-A or Amazon, who's founder is now the largest public financial backer of gay rights in the country. We have the freedom to support pro-life Curves or pro-choice Staples. Yay for liberty and capitalist superiority
