i dont really understand how what BK is doing is "mocking Christians". BK is mocking CFA, so I guess all Christians are offended by that?

This is the only correct take.

they still generating donations that otherwise wouldnt have been generated.

So Ill take it tbh, a hell of a lot better than what CFA is generating money for.

Speaking of BK, do they still have that oblong chicken sandwich? I dont see it on Grubhub, Postmates, Doordash, or Ubereats. I mean sure, it was a greasy mess and the mayo got hot super fast, but I loved that thing. And there arent any BKs nearby :<
It's showing up on my doordash as an option. So, yeah. Maybe locations vary?

CFA is the official fast food chicken sandwich chain of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

It absolutely is in reference to Chick-Fil-A. Not something anyone whos a half decent person would get upset about though. The message they are trying to send is that BK likes lgbt folks unlike chick-fil-a and they wanted to do that without mentioning the other places name.

That BK chicken sandwich actually looks pretty good. I haven't eaten there in a couple of years. Is that new or something
Yea every chain has a new chicken sandwich coming out, with beef prices going up. I've had the BK one and i really liked it but when compared to the other places its not worth the price IMO. Still worth a try, though @Jiek_Fafn

That's exactly what it's about. But I don't see how offering Christians the option to eat a chicken sandwich on Sunday is "mocking" them though. Really strange thing for them to be upset about.

Whether it's worth getting upset about is a different matter, it not being worth getting upset about doesn't change the fact that it was a dig about Chick-Fil-A being closed on Sunday for religious reasons. People are acting like they can't figure out what's being talked about.

Seems like not working on the Sabbath was one of the things dropped by Jesus.

Healing of a Man on the Sabbath
14 One Sabbath, when he went to dine at the house of a ruler of the Pharisees, they were watching him carefully. 2 And behold, there was a man before him who had dropsy. 3 And Jesus responded to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath, or not? 4 But they remained silent. Then he took him and healed him and sent him away. 5 And he said to them, Which of you, having a son[a] or an ox that has fallen into a well on a Sabbath day, will not immediately pull him out? 6 And they could not reply to these things.

It isnt about religion. It is done because they are well known for being closed on Sunday. The why if it is irrelevant.

And yet here you are lol.

Let's not pretend Christians overwhelmingly treat Sunday as anything other than an excuse to dress up and congregate in an echo chamber for an hour, while the remaining 23 hours that day are BAU.

The holy day has not been treated as such for a very long time. Cut the bullshit, for most it's a day to watch sports and goof off or do projects after church.

For those asking why those "Christians" are offended, it's because they want as much money going to hate others as possible.

Chick-fil-A donated to anti-trans and anti-gay groups in 2018 but stopped after backlash.

Recently, the current owner donated money to a group that's trying very hard to kill the equality act and remove as many rights as possible from those in the LGBTQ+ community. Source:

No see, we all know that...you aren't some genius for knowing it as well. we know what part they are offended about. We're laughing at them for being offended about that, because Burger King clearly wasn't attacking Christians with this ad campaign.

This is amazing. Now if the progressives who deliberately avoid chick fil a dont deliberately go to Burger King, we can say with more certainty than we already have that its less about activism and more about moral grandstanding and feeling good about themselves.

But for the rest of us is the BK chicken sandwich any good?

Gee, its almost as if the extremely vocal minority gets more attention than the people who don't fall to pieces over a fucking sandwich. Funny how that works, huh?
