San Antonio Councilman Robert Treviño said providing travelers with the option of eating at Chick-fil-A would make them feel unwelcome. Double-standard alert: Apparently, they don't care about Christians who are offended by a certain large-chain coffee shop that donates to anti-Christian causes and is presently in virtually every airport across America.

On Thursday, administrators with the San Antonio City Council rejected a potential Chick-fil-A location at the San Antonio International Airport, citing the Atlanta-based chain's "legacy of anti-LGBTQ behavior," according to KTSA-FM.

The decision to scrub Chick-fil-A from its list of considerations came when the council inked a seven-year contract with Paradies Lagardère, a travel retailer that operates stores and restaurants in airports. The deal is expected to generate around $2 million in revenue for the city.

Chick-fil-A was presented as an option because of its extreme popularity and the health-conscious menu options the restaurant offers.

Regardless, the eatery won't be allowed in the airport's terminals because it just isn't inclusive enough, a progressive trope dating back to 2012, when Chick-fil-A CEO Dan Cathy expressed his personal belief that marriage is a union between one man and one woman.

Councilman Robert Treviño said providing travelers with the option of eating at Chick-fil-A would make them feel unwelcome.

"With this decision, the City Council reaffirmed the work our city has done to become a champion of equality and inclusion," Treviño claimed. "San Antonio is a city full of compassion, and we do not have room in our public facilities for a business with a legacy of anti-LGBTQ behavior."

He added, "Everyone has a place here and everyone should feel welcome when they walk through our airport."

How did Chick-fil-A respond?

A spokesperson for Chick-fil-A responded to the council's decision, citing the restaurant's "code of conduct," which promotes actual tolerance: "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."

The reference is of course to the Golden Rule found in the Bible, like in Luke 6:31... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
