Exactly
It's weird that a restaurant closes on Sunday, the one day most people like to frequent restaurants... Doesn't make sense, but then religion is involved.

The idea behind stores being closed on Sundays is to keep the sabbath, by not working on Sunday.
Never mind that the sabbath was originally on Saturday, the 7th day of the week. The Catholic church decided at some point to "put god first" and moved the sabbath to the first day of the week. So, Sunday is not the sabbath designated int eh bible.
@snytiger6 That sounds familiar, I believe it and am not surprised. When I was in college I studied a lot of things, philosophy being one, but I've forgotten more than I remember. My thing was learning enough to be able to decide about something then let it go. I had let go of religion before I went but college buttoned up a lot of things for me.
Wouldn't give them my business any day of the week. Don't care if they're giving away food for free.

I ate there a couple times and thought the food was good, but stopped when I found out they're all pious and sanctimonious.
@AlbertSchepis I ate there a couple of times in the early 198/0's. I thought the food was just so so.
Anyway, that was long before I learned what they represent.
I've decided not to give them my business either
It really sucks that they are an above average restaurant. If they were crap like Papa John's or Jimmy John's no one would be sticking up for them lol.

I take exception to Papa Johns... I think they make a decent pizza, but I get your point.
One of my favorite jokes:
How do you spell mediocre?
J-I-M-M-Y J-O-H-N-S
Clearly they didn't think that through.

That for the simple reason that they cannot think.
Last year's article. I've eaten Chik fil A because I had a stack of 50 coupons $2.99 for sandwich, waffle fries and a drink. $2 for breakfast biscuit hash and coffee. I ate there 3xa week for 6mo. It's good. I was poor and caring for my mom. I also figure all fast food companies are exploiters. Haven't eaten they since the coupons expired 7 years ago. I boycott. Don't care what day it is.
