A leader in the evangelical community has called for Christians to boycott Starbucks, saying the company's support for the radical homosexual agenda makes it an enemy of God.

Pastor Steven Andrew, president of USA Christian Ministries asks the question, "What would happen if Starbucks were to lose 80% of their customers"? Andrew says Christians have that kind of clout as they outnumber homosexuals by a ratio of 40 to 1.

USA Christian Ministries says it is dedicated to proclaiming the good news of Jesus Christ, uniting the country in Christ, leading America to repentance and seeking God first in government.

Starbucks, which has several coffee shops in the Greeley area, has long been supportive of the homosexual agenda.

On Jan. 24, the company announced that it was proudly supporting efforts to legalize "gay" marriage in Washington, despite the state already allowing domestic partnerships that provide all of the legal benefits of marriage.

While Starbucks claims it is committed to diversity, it apparently does not extend to conservative causes.

Brian Brown, president of the National Organization for Marriage, said that as early as 2005 he was told by representatives in writing the company was committed to "embracing diversity" which included sponsoring "gay" pride events.

Brown said that, "When I asked them to name a single pro-life event they sponsored, or an event encouraging teen-abstinence or the celebration of marriage ... their national representative told me plainly by phone, 'I don't like the way this conversation is going.' So much for diversity!"

Andrew says Christians should not be surprised at the company's support for the "gay" agenda and that Christians are partially to blame for Starbuck's policy.
