(Newser) – A pastor is calling on Christians to shun Starbucks because of its support of gay marriage in Washington state, reports the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. "Starbucks is no longer fashionable," says USA Christian Ministries head Steven Andrew in a statement. He makes the case that the chain would lose 80% of its clientele if Christians united in the cause. "Starbucks can follow Satan if they want to," he says. (They're also "haters of God.")

If you take a closer look at who owns and runs Starbucks, you'll get a better idea of what is really going on here. And Newser, if you ban this comment, then your a bunch of mamzers!

Wow the world would be a way better place without politichristians. What would happen if 80% of Christians boycotted church and their social control?
