DO CORPORATIONS AND INDIVIDUALS REALLY SUPPORT GAY MARRIAGE OR IS IT JUST A BUSINESS SAVING THING?




I was reading an article recently where Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos and his wife have pledged $2.5 million to a PAC defending Washington state’s same-sex marriage law.


Amazon is one of the largest online retailers in the world selling everything from books to clothes. I wonder how many millions of dollars in revenue they would lose if they stood up against gay marriage. On the other hand, I wonder how many millions they would gain as well if they stood against gay marriage?

When Chick Fil A’s president Dan Cathy spoke against Gay marriage, many went nuts. including the overt gay people themselves or those who had gay loved ones and friends. I often wonder how many people


How many individuals and corporations can actually come out and speak against gay marriage without worrying about the consequences. I am very sure that there are hundreds of companies and individuals who have the same exact opinion as Dan Cathy and Chick Fil A. The question is …can their risk the pockets of their businesses and take a stand? Only time will tell.


One thing is sure and it is that America is a sentiment driven country. We always want to be diplomatic and please everybody even though pleasing everybody for some will always mean displeasing God.


…Millions of people should ask themselves they are supporting gay marriage. Is it because your gay friend might hate you if they find out your views don’t line up with theirs or that your August sales will go down if the LGBT community finds out that you don’t support their cause?


I looked for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand before me in the gap on behalf of the land so I would not have to destroy it, but I found none. (Ezekiel 22:30)


Dan Cathy is N (ONE)of the many God is looking for to stand in the gap. I’m sure God is smiling on Dan Cathy and Chick Fil A and he is sure not to put the company, their sales, or anyone else who stands on his word to shame!!
