Is Chick-fil-A Anti-Gay Marriage? CEO's Comments Cause Flap

Lunch lines seem just as long at Florida's restaurants, even though the chain is under fire for comments CEO Dan Cathy made in an interview with the Baptist Press.

In the interview, Cathy described his support for "the biblical defintion of the family unit," reports the Los Angeles Times.

“We are a family-owned business, a family-led business, and we are married to our first wives,” Cathy said in the interview with Baptist Press.
