August 14, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) – A press release from the American Family Association has given an update on the involvement of McDonald’s in the promotion of homosexuality.
“Now we learn that McDonald’s sponsors training for homosexuals on how to promote their agenda among corporations from the inside. Out & EqualTM Workplace Advocates is a national organization devoted to the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community in the workplace,” the press release states.
“One of its primary purposes is to train employees how to aggressively promote homosexuality within the company they work for, all the way to the corporate boardroom. Part of last year’s Out & Equal Summit in Washington, DC, (sponsored by McDonald’s) was an organized march into congressional offices demanding same-sex marriage laws be passed.”
“At the bottom of McDonald’s half-page ad in the Out & Equal Summit booklet is this statement: ‘From neighborhood to neighborhood, coast to coast and around the world, McDonald’s is proud to celebrate diversity,’” the press release concludes.
McDonald’s first overt entry into promotion of the homosexual agenda was their announcement in March, 2008, of a $20,000 donation to the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce in order to become a corporate sponsor and to have a seat on the board of directors.

After back-peddling from this disclosure (See “McDonald’s Throws up A Smoke Screen to Cover Support for Homosexual Agenda”: https://www.lifesitenews.com/ldn/2008/apr/08040905.html) McDonald’s has openly challenged those opposing the homosexual agenda, including same-sex “marriage”, by accusing various pro-family organizations of being motivated by hate.
