So he donates to Christian foundations? So what? The religion, on basis, is a homophobic one. It bugs me, but I can't change it. In return, these organizations are anti-gay. That's how the religion - as I know it - is. If I was an adult, I'd donate to pro-gay things. But I'm not. Chick-fil-A donates to these places because it's what he believes in. If you have any proof that the Family Research Council spent thousand of dollars lobbying for congress to not condemn Uganda's Kill the Gays bill in 2010, I'd like to see it.

During an interview with Chick-fil-A's owner, Dan Cathy, the interviewer asked him what he thought about homosexuality, since it is a Christianity based company. He told them he does not approve. That was it. The rest of it is accusations saying bogus like he's trying to kill people. He simply believes in his morals. That's about it.

I'm against what he thinks, but everyone is entitled to their beliefs/opinions, right? If that's all he said then... What else has he done?

Exactly. I've read in articles and heard on the news that he donates to Christian organizations, but I've seen nothing about sending money to purely anti-gay and hate groups. Other people say they have, but since this isn't religion and it can be proven if he has or not, I want proof.

I want proof, too. Because until he confirms that he does or is, I will believe what everyone is saying.

^^ Regarding the above claim; this is not written by me, but on another online source I found. No, Chick-Fil-A Did Not Support Legislation To Kill Gays by: Dana Loesch Due to a lack of reading comprehension and desire to deal in truth, progressive websites have for days peddled the lie that Chick-Fil-A supported the Family Research Council's support of legislation which OK'd gay-killing in Uganda. A lie that took all of two seconds to debunk: The Tony Perkins-led FRC said it did lobby on the bill, but not to kill it – rather to change the language it contained and to remove sweeping and inaccurate assertions that homosexual conduct is internationally recognized as a fundamental human right. FRC did not lobby against or oppose passage of the congressional resolution. FRC's efforts, at the request of Congressional offices, were limited to seeking changes in the language of proposed drafts of the resolution, in order to make it more factually accurate regarding the content of the Uganda bill. FRC does not support the Uganda bill, and does not support the death penalty for homosexuality - nor any other penalty which would have the effect of inhibiting compassionate pastoral, psychological, and medical care and treatment for those who experience same-gender attractions or who engage in homosexual conduct.What? So you mean the story about Chick-Fil-A supporting gay-killing is complete and utter hogwash? Of course it is. Do you expect any of the many websites to print retractions? No, you don't. Unless you've stopped buying gas from OPEC countries which oppose even the discussion of gays and condone death as punishment -- and you didn't vote for the party that endorsed the gay-killing Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt -- shush.

You're well aware of how something being written online doesn't make it true. What organization upon being suspected of lobbying something so horrendous would admit to it? FRC claims that it was lobbying for something else. Does that mean it's telling the truth? Lobbying itself is a shady business. The FRC interested in accuracy? They're known for creating propaganda, especially false links between gay men and "having attraction to children," the actual word will get caught in the filter. Interested in "compassionate pastoral, psychological, and medical care and treatment for those who experience same-gender attractions?!" The American Psychological Association has said that any attempts at changing someone's sexuality is harmful. There is nothing compassionate about it.

Yes. Accusations.

You don't care that millions of dollars were donated to anti-LGBTQA+ organizations, including recognized hate groups? And that some of those organizations took actions in support of Uganda's Kill The Gays bill?
