Far too many ...I agree with your insights, Marcel. Far too many of us simply turn a blind eye and a deaf ear when as Christians we are truly called to be salt and light in this world. I believe it truly does make a difference the choices we make. I like coffee, but if my like for coffee supports indirectly the demise of morality in this country, should I not do what the Lord asks, and "fast" and "pray", for evils can only be gotten rid of through fasting. I do not support Starbucks, and there are plenty of other options out there. We should learn to look deeper at the effects of our financial support of the companies we choose to buy from, so that we can use our purchasing choices to bring the "best possible" good of available choices.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01596835429128421225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5094967570243723764.post-62904762568073505352012-11-23T00:02:46.766-06:002012-11-23T00:02:46.766-06:00http://www.hrc.org/files/assets/resources/2012_Buy...http://www.hrc.org/files/assets/resources/2012_BuyersGuide.pdf<br /><br />That's something i found online. This is from a source that WANTs to increase support for gay marriage. I am personally against gay marriage, but this is a good source because they rate how much each of these companies supports the cause they want to succeed. <br /><br />Thanks for posting this, Marcel. I think it's really difficult where to draw the line and where to not.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12610108768847690305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5094967570243723764.post-5499106232929839252012-04-27T14:49:03.238-05:002012-04-27T14:49:03.238-05:00FYI - several comments have not made it through mo...FYI - several comments have not made it through moderation. If you want to engage in a dialogue, then do so. If you want to attack, accuse, or try to stir up distortions of Catholic teachings we won't allow that.Marcelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18121158394600137195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5094967570243723764.post-21893377350181556072012-04-26T18:09:25.243-05:002012-04-26T18:09:25.243-05:00Thanks Marcel.

And btw, it is not a marriage any more than the tale of a dog called a leg is a leg.Gerry Neumannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13320770229373239823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5094967570243723764.post-82645609264897310722012-04-26T16:37:36.651-05:002012-04-26T16:37:36.651-05:00I tried to be quite clear what this is all about. ...I tried to be quite clear what this is all about. <br /><br />FYI - Things made in China aren't undermining the most basic social cell in our society.Marcelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18121158394600137195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5094967570243723764.post-28072514233318891452012-04-26T16:19:07.349-05:002012-04-26T16:19:07.349-05:00I just saw where a Starbucks opened in the MSC.
