In the end, Chick Fil A is a private business... and just like a Jewish Deli or Halal restaurant, as long as they adhere to legal policies, are free to operate according to the rules and beliefs as they see fit, to the benefit and/or detriment of their business. Just like you aren't forced to adjust to any of their rules of conduct in life, they shouldn't have to adjust to yours. In the end there's a pretty easy solution if you don't agree with the beliefs and customs of any of these places... just eat (or work!) somewhere else.
