Individuals will make up their own minds about Cracker Barrel and I have decided to forgive them because they seem sincere in their apology. However, if it happens again then it will be obvious that Cracker Barrel officials don’t know who butters their biscuits. Maybe they will get the message when pro family customers go elsewhere to eat. After all Chick-fil-a is still doing a roaring business–except on Sunday.

STOP is a very loose coalition of concerned Christians who are weary of business owners who pander to the Perversion Lobby that represents Christians as haters. We are determined to remind all who will listen that we are the people who love homosexuals enough to tell them the truth about perversion. We are in the ministry of nudging, not pushing, other decent people to get involved.

I am sure many people who don’t identify with Bible-believing Christians will also get involved with STOP activities. No doubt we will pick up a few stray nuts and others who loaf on the fringe of every group but we will have to live with that. I am willing to admit that all the nuts are not in the Perversion Lobby. Some are in the church lobby, carry a Bible, and wear a silly grin. For sure, all nuts are not on the trees. No doubt, some of the Repulsive Radical Religious Right will get involved, especially in Kansas, but we will disavow them with the understanding that it is still not illegal to be a religious nut in America.

We will also have to live with some in the Christian community who will oppose our activities as being unchristian, unwise or maybe unnecessary. Furthermore, some asinine critics will use the Bible to tell us we are wrong! It is a misuse of English to call religious leaders, leaders if they don’t lead! Usually they are weaklings masquerading as leaders. Most Christians want a leader with hair on his chest, a working brain in his head, an understanding heart in his bosom, and a stiff bone in his back. Most loosey-goosey religious leaders are missing all four but do have a small yellow streak up their backs.

Even an old dog knows the difference in being kicked around and being stumbled over. So do astute Christians, who will no longer be kicked around without expressing our outrage by withholding our credit cards and our cash. You remember cash; it’s a four-letter word not seen often.

Some of my crowd will suggest that they are too busy to get involved in STOP. Say what? Those  same pastors give the impression that they work day and night preaching the Gospel, visiting the sick, feeding the hungry, knocking on doors, etc. Of course, everyone knows they spend time on the golf course, bowling alleys, hunting, fishing, and watching some of the new vile television shows. So, I think all religious leaders and decent laymen can spare a couple hours every couple months to take a public position on decency as supported by the Bible they are profess to believe. Preachers who are critical of STOP are willing to preach from the pulpit but not practice in the streets and on social media what they say they believe.

Others will tell us that they can’t be involved in STOP because it is not right to demand a business owner serve them as did the Civil Rights demonstrators. I agree. That’s the point: we don’t want them to serve us. We want to serve them! We want to convince them that it is a stupid business decision to antagonize 98% of their customer base. We want to help them, not hurt or harass them.

I have a computer list headed “National STOP List” with my name at the top. Many others have added their names in the last few hours with more being added every hour. I have a “State STOP List” and under Georgia I am listed. I may add an international list. My plea went out Dec. 24 to pastors and laymen for help in calling attention to the normalcy of a pro-family position. I requested name, city, state, and email. No one will have access to that list but me and I will never turn it over to anyone for any reason. When the next business owner decides to dance with the dandies of the Perversion Lobby, I will send out an alert to my list in the appropriate state or throughout the nation. All will be invited to get involved. I will not harass anyone to get involved; however, I will remind them of this opportunity to do something practical in support of the Bible and common sense.

We will be more sure of success if there is state and national communication between me and everyone else. After all, I can’t be aware of every problem. So cooperating Christians will contact me when a business goes off the rails and I will check it out and disperse the facts either at the state level or national level. Such cooperation will make us all more effective without a national office, budget, and other normal requirements for a large, effective movement.

If a “spontaneous” confrontation is necessary, I will issue a press release or column announcing the issue with the business, locations, and suggested procedures. Each person can then use his influence to influence others to apply pressure, kindly of course. So business owners take note: Christians have learned something from Blacks, feminists, homosexuals, Hispanics, socialists, and others: we will never be unkind, unruly, untruthful, or unchristian but we will be heard and will STOP funding businessmen who kick us around as they accept our money.

Let me assure everyone that the road to America’s moral garbage dump is paved with bad intentions. The Perversion Lobby wants to destroy your way of life. STOP is a simple and, with social media, an easy way to make a difference instead of whining about our “mistreatment.”

Hey, even a mangy old dog knows the difference in being stumbled over and kicked around. We have been kicked too many times and we demand a Stop To Oppressive Persecution.

All Americans have the right and obligation to take their business anywhere. You can decide that you will only patronize an atheist if you want. Or, you may choose to only purchase from a Baptist or Buddhist or Baháist if you want or from any religionist from Anglicanism to Zoroastism. You have that right. However, it would be no surprise if the amateur golfer, acting as our sitting president, might be convinced by his buddies down at the Down Low Club to force us to switch to homosexual-friendly businesses. As for me, I will fight rather than switch!

The day may soon arrive when we are told what kind of automobile to purchase or what kind of cereal or milk to purchase. After all, we are now told that one cannot smoke in his own home, cannot purchase large drinks, what kind of light bulb to purchase and even how much water can be in our toilet! And you thought this was still a free America! You are dreaming. But generally, we can still spend our money the way we choose. I choose to not support pro-homosexual businesses; however, those who scream the loudest about tolerance will not tolerate my taking that position!

Principled people should not need someone to organize a boycott of businesses that choose to support vile causes. We should be so sensitive that we decide on our own to be selective in where we spend our money. But it seems most Christian Americans are too busy or lazy to think for themselves so I will try to prompt them into action with the help of their religious leaders.

While all businesses have the right to choose depravity over decency even though they present a very pro-family image, sane people can see through their duplicity. After all, it is not illegal to be a hypocrite! If so, Washington, D.C. would be a ghost town! Such businesses may also go bankrupt but that too is their right. Going bankrupt is still, at this moment, legal although that could change too.

I have been a frequent customer of Cracker Barrel for many years and I decided to refuse to patronize them anymore. It seemed their officials weren’t concerned with their hypocrisy, their poor business acumen, and their lack of appreciation of their customer base (98% normal people) so maybe they would understand when the cash register got silent. Because Cracker Barrel did a seriously repentant apology and returned to the fold, I have forgiven them but that is the last business I will forgive without sufficient evidence of sincere repentance. STOP is now my operating system.

I have contacted thousands of pastors in all the states and asked them to get involved in STOP. We only need a few people in each state. I am not interested in any money or any position. There are no dues, membership cards, salaries, expense accounts, monthly meetings, or officers. I’m mad as I can be and I refuse to take it anymore. When the next business takes a pro-homosexual, anti-family position (a death wish), I will issue an alert to pastors (and other leaders) across the nation and ask for a public boycott against the offending business. Those pastors will use their church bulletin, newspaper, websites, social media, and their pulpit to encourage others to participate. Even the dullest of business leaders should get the message: Don’t mess with Christians.

Thankfully, Cracker Barrel publically repented in sack cloth and ashes so I will still eat their Old Fashioned breakfast although I am a little offended at their use of “cracker” in Cracker Barrel!

Hopefully, STOP will help stop the persecution against Christians by nudging others to get involved.

I am weary of being tagged as intolerant, ignorant, and insensitive by non-thinkers while the real haters at the LGBT and GLAAD even identify me as “bigot,” “hater,” and “Nazi.” I am also weary of the liberal left wing media (and that’s sure a redundancy) jumping into the battle and singing the same song from the same page as the vile, vicious, and vitriolic dandies at the Perversion Lobby. I plead guilty to being narrow minded, but then it is not illegal to be narrow. It’s even Christian! Christ mentioned that the path to Heaven is a narrow path that Christians travel while the road to Hell is a broad boulevard.

Let’s be clear: God has spoken. There is no argument. Homosexuality, known in the Bible and throughout society as sodomy, was wrong, is wrong, and will be wrong tomorrow no matter what any state, national, or international court decides or what any politician or legislature decides. No one on earth has the authority to make wrong, right. Juan Williams’ assertion that “It is not in the Christian tradition to make judgments about them [homosexuals] and to put them in a box” is wrong, wrong, wrong. But that is normal for him since he is seldom right, right, right. No, the judgment has already been made and recorded, and homosexuals for centuries have been prosecuted. Furthermore, it has nothing to do with hate as is always claimed by permissive leftists. You see, homosexuals hope that accusation will end the discussion but it only proves their capitulation. Permissive leftists are lazy thinkers and bigger stinkers.

A young homosexual at Liberty University correctly said, “Not tolerating someone for his narrow-mindedness is perhaps the epitome of intolerance.” That’s one homosexual I agree with. I can’t get any LGBT proponent to tell me why it is reasonable for them to demand that I be tolerant of their wild, weird, and wacky sexual activities but they can’t be tolerant of my scriptural and common sense pro-family positions. After all, history, as well as the Bible, supports my position, not theirs. However, the media never expects them to defend their positions which only in recent history have been accepted by the herd.

I have become alarmed, angry, and agitated in recent years as I’ve seen various business executives cater to and bow to the Perversion Lobby as their businesses take a public stand against common sense, Christian morals, and business acumen. That unfair, unreasonable, and un-American persecution of Christians and the kowtowing to the Perversion Lobby is usually followed by national outrage from all decent people who favor decency and fairness. After a few days of bad publicity, the business executives see their errors (because their stores are as empty as a mainline church on Sunday evening) and “see the light,” “get the message,” and “have an epiphany.” Then, trying to be real Christians, we forgive the jerks, forget their transgression, and finance their “rehabilitation.” That has to STOP! No more easy forgiveness. I don’t care if they go belly up!

I have asked more than six thousand pastors to take a couple hours when called upon to inform their members and call, email, or go to a business that has taken an anti-family position and to express their plans to no longer patronize them. Hopefully those Christians, as individuals, will not back off and continue to support a superficially repentant business owner. After all, easy forgiveness would nullify our attempts to let business owners know that while they have a right to support homosexual causes they will pay a price if they do. STOP is telling them as of now, we Christians are mad as we can be and will not take it anymore. If a businessman is so insensitive, inept, and incompetent to go on record as supporting the Perversion Lobby he will forever lose our support.

Contrary to most Americans who have been brainwashed by the public school system, television, movies, the social media, and the political system, I believe that a business has the right to sell to whomever they please, pay whatever salaries workers are willing to accept, provide whatever benefits a business can afford, work as many hours as the employer and employees agree to, and hire any young person for any legal task to which parents agree! All that with no contact with the state or feds except to pay appropriate fees and taxes. Few people remember such a free America before the bungling, bossy buffoons took control.

That being said, I believe Cracker Barrel and all other businesses have a legal right to throw themselves into the cultural war on the side of those outrageous sexually permissive dandies, and to enthusiastically jump into bed with the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender group. However, those of us who believe that same-sex marriage is not marriage and is in fact a misnomer, mistake, and madness also have certain rights. Christians and pro-family people need to require business leaders to be at least as sensitive to our positions as they are to the Perversion Lobby. Or else. If they choose to support homosexuality, they will not be forgiven. Oh, yes, we will forgive them personally but we will no longer return to their “fold.” Their cash registers will gather dust and lose their jingle until they show they are thoroughly repentant.

I have contacted thousands of pastors and others who will agree to not patronize any business that continues to kick decency and kiss decadency. With the use of the Internet and social media maybe we can put a STOP to this duplicity and the taking of Christians for granted.

We demand a Stop To Oppressive Persecution.
