Chick-fil-A president Dan Cathy is not the only business tycoon who refuses to hide his faith under a bushel — top executives from some of America’s biggest companies are born-again Christians who talk about their beliefs more often than their balance sheets.
Major corporations like Tyson Foods, Interstate Batteries and Hobby Lobby were either founded or are now led by outspoken and deeply religious bosses. While some of the companies distinguish between their corporate identities and their leaders’ faith, others embrace it.
—Norm Miller, chairman of Interstate Batteries, discusses his faith and salvation at length on the company’s website, even inviting people to write him for advice on prayer;
—Tyson Foods, the Arkansas food processing giant, offers chaplains to counsel its employees on life issues like deaths or family emergencies;
—In-N-Out Burger, the popular California-based hamburger chain, prints “John 3:16” on the bottom of its cups;
—Hobby Lobby, the Oklahoma City-based arts and crafts store chain, cites its commitment to “honoring the Lord” on its website and closes its 500-plus nationwide locations on Sundays, as does Chick-fil-A.

About Amelia Hamilton
First of all, Chick-fil-A is not pedaling religion! It’s CEO and subordinate officers simply adhere to their Christian beliefs and rituals in their own lives. The only part of that translates to the business is not being open on Sundays. Ms. Hamilton, the author is misconstruing the personal beliefs of individuals with the policies of the business itself. Because one doesn’t agree with Mr. Cathy’s personal beliefs doesn’t mean his staff is pushing them on customers. Whereas the gay community is doing everything it can to normalize an abnormal aborition and pressing the adoption of their views on those who wish not to be pressed.
