This makes me sick... she's the one who should be "ran out of town". If you can't support the constitution without allowing your own personal bias to affect your sworn responsibilities, then you have no right to hold public office. This code seems to work for the legal and medical professions, but public officials seem to place personal beliefs over law fairly often.

A powerful New York politician claims she was just speaking as a private citizen when she tried to run Chick-fil-A out of town, but she used her official letterhead and even invoked her position as City Council speaker to apply pressure on the embattled chicken chain.

At least some politicians get it. If the students of NYU don't want a CFA on campus, then I'm certain the restaurant will close if they don't give it any business.

“She can write to someone as a council member, but if she states that she is writing as the Speaker it can only be on behalf of the entire council. She has to have the unanimous vote of the council, and I don’t recall voting on this matter,” City Councilman Peter Vallone (D-Queens) told FoxNews.com. “A stance on gay marriage is in no way a forum to prevent someone form running a business in a community.

“If we allow something like this, then the next letter might be considering someone’s view on abortion.”

New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg said last week that he would not follow the lead of his counterparts in Chicago, San Francisco and Boston, who all said Chick-fil-A was not welcome in their cities. Bloomberg said it was “inappropriate” for any government to decide if a business can or cannot operate in a city because of someone's political views.

As one who does not believe in gay marriage I have to disagree with you on this one. My belief is that God welcomes everyone so should his churches, being gay is not a sin or IMO condemend in the bible. Acting on it (gay sex) just like adultry.

it's only intolerance if perpetrated by a white Christian. Do you not understand the modern rules of tolerance as the highest virtue anywhere, ever?

What Bible are you reading ?

Mine says that gay sex and adultry are both sins and condemned.

I've heard it before. I think what he is saying is that to love someone of the same sex isn't a sin. The sinful act is having sex with them. Two men/women wanting to live together because they love each other isn't the sinful act. The sex between them is.

Or so I've heard.

Sex before marriage is fornication, a sin.

Divorce was allowed under the law in the old testament.
In the New Testament Jesus says in Matthew 5: 31-32

It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement:

32 But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.

People are mistakenly making this about theology.....I'm no expert, but I did graduate from seminary. Getting two people to completely agree on theological topics is crazy enough...

In fact, this situation would be no different from any mayor/council person putting together a checklist for business owners. IE whether you are a Christian or a non Christian you would be forced to state your position on a laundry list of beliefs before you were able to open a business in said community.

That is not religious freedom....that is not freedom of any sort.

It just feeds the far right who will turn over rocks looking for eschatological signs that the persecution of Christians has begun.
