Today I made sweet couscous and a preserved lemon chicken tagine, but prior to that I don't think I ate any meat but fish for like a month.
I did it for health and weight reasons. It's been working out really well for me. Maybe I'll start a thread in Off-Topic sometime soon to discuss it.

the real reason many rightwingers can't support boycotting Target is that they lack alternatives.
if they stopped supporting every company and artist that supports gay equality they'd practically have to become Amish. sucks to be a hater in 21st century America.

Mike Huckabee Calls For National 'Chick-Fil-A Appreciation Day
Maybe the Religious Right can arrange to substitute this for Martin Luther King Day.

If nothing else, Scott demonstrates the time honored apologetic habit of using questionable overstatement. When has chik fil A ever resembled a scrumptious dining experience?

Well, you do put their stuff in your mouth, chew it up and (if you feel like doing so) subsequently swallow it. There is that resemblance.

That's the problem with this supernatural stuff, it doesn't really solve anything. It's a placeholder for ignorance.

I was going with "made from indeterminate substance and is hard to swallow" . But that's more comparing his apologetics with Chik Fil A...

He is right.
Why Me, don't you think you should boycott Chik-fil-a because of its founder's strong devotion to the Southern Baptist Convention and its explicit anti-Mormon agenda?

Interestingly, they locked the thread for this over on the ironically named Mormon Dialogue Board.

What dialogue can occur when a bunch of Fascist/Communist/Socialist/Liberal/Nazis control their board???
