Since the  Charity Give Back Group  was forced to defend its financing of organizations like the Family Research Council and Focus on the Family, spokesman Kevin McCullough (who himself has propagated  virulent ant Image via Wikipedia i-gay rhetoric ) has stated that the campaign to have companies withdraw from the CGBG represents bullying. Tony Perkins , the president of the FRC, even said it was an attempt to  “censor” Christians .

The dispute surrounded Chick-fil-A’s involvement in conferences next month in South-Central Pennsylvania featuring “The Art of Marriage,” a program designed to help Christian couples support their marriage. The conferences are being sponsored by the Pennsylvania Family Institute, which homosexualist bloggers faulted for supporting traditional marriage. “If you’re currently eating a Chick-fil-A, ask yourself if it tastes good enough to justify supporting Pennsylvania’s most prominent anti-equality group,” declared the homosexualist Good As You blog on January 3. Metro Weekly’s  Last Word blog  noted the next day that Chick-fil-A’s corporate philosophy is Christ
