To the Editor:

I saw a sign once that read, "Honk if you love Jesus." Many of us have seen bumper stickers that are cute, funny and sometimes are outright sacrilegious. Maybe someone will come up with a bumper sticker that says, "Honk if you love Chick-fil-A." Thank God for freedom of speech, afforded us by our Constitution,  but I think we have gone too far when the mayor of Boston is willing to  oppose a successful business from opening  stores in his city.  If  Dan Cathy (CEO for Chick-fil-A) believes in traditional marriage and isn't afraid to share his opinion, I say praise God! It is time that believers in Jesus Christ wake up and be sober, sit up and take notice, stand up and be counted, and speak up and be heard. We, as believers,  live in America and have that right, too, you know!
