I'd heard that Starbucks was supporting gay marriage. This makes me quite happy. And if I am out near one, I'll be getting myself a coffee. Or maybe a muffin. I don't know. Something. >_>

MUFFINS FOR GAY MARRIAGE.

The pastor is a fool; its clear that he only has one aspect of marriage. He can ******** off I love my pumpkin cake! Like peter off of family guy said: "If they want to get married and be mersible like the rest of us, I say let them!" It's Christians like him who give the religion a bad name even though one rotten apple shouldn't spoil the whole bunch but due to society's standards, it does. STOP MAKING CHRISTIANITY LOOK BAD a*****e!!! scream scream scream

I don't often go to Starbucks, since I'd rather support our local coffee shops, but I do love their peppermint mocha frappuccinos (even though they're just about the most unhealthy beverage on the menu xD). It's nice to hear that they support same-sex marriage. smile

I'm not too fond of Starbucks and how they have become the death of independent coffee houses in so many neighborhoods, and that their hipster-targeted coffee is just okay..not great ( I was spoiled by SF coffee) but now I won't feel so bad when I end up at one cat_xd

Hipsters are a great counterpoint to my argument. Gays I will fight for, but I have a pretty hard time being tolerant of hipsters...

That was a great move by Starbucks. They will gain much more money by supporting than they would by losing bigoted Christian customers. Homosexuals are one of the most sought after target markets, and we are high up in spending power as well. Now I can enjoy my latte even more! blaugh

There's literally nine Starbucks in the small suburban town that I live in. (I guess we have a lot of hipsters here, though I've never really noticed...) The closest one is only a five-minute bike ride. And even though it's February, IT'S SO SUNNY OUTSIDE! ;D No excuse for me not to stop in and have a double chocolate chip frappucino. :9

I'll stop by there this Friday when I am in the town that has one! Haha.

I wish there was a way I could tell this Pastor that I am a Christian and have a problem with him and his POV on this.

Hmm...

Wow... o.o

I love Starbucks for their coffee, but I hated that they were slowly killing off independent coffee shops, though I had seen some that are still alive and thus Starbucks hasn't wiped everything out yet.

But upon hearing this, they will have more support from me. XD

For a caffeine addict, this is like hearing God to tell all the homophobes to shut the ******** up.
