Top 7 Places To Boycott If You Are A True Christian

A much needed break from the chaos with a little bit of humor

There are so many places that do not support Christians and everything they stand for. Here is a list of a few that will help you decide what to boycott this week.

1. Starbucks

Starbucks supports the millennials and had to have sensitivity training because they don't know how to tell people no. They are, however, easy to hang out at for hours and you do not have to buy anything. They can't kick you out. They also make a good overpriced latte, but they are running low on the sugar-free options. It makes me wonder how they can ever compete with Dutch Bros, who is slowly taking over the West Coast.

2. Disney

Disney owns half the world, and a number of news networks, including the View on ABC. The very show who has had people on it who promised they would move out of the country if Trump became President and have yet to do so. The problem is Disney probably has the best amusement park in the known world, and let's not forget, churros.

3. Nike

The shoes are not the issue, it is who they choose to endorse the shoes. A black athlete who was raised by a white family, and has now made half of the US lose respect for him. Let us all light our shoes on fire. I am just wondering if Nike will reimburse me after I burn the shoes, because I still need shoes.

4. Restaurants

All of them except Chick-Fil-A fall into this category. They serve alcohol, and alcohol is not allowed. The fast food restaurants, those are by no means nutritious and the body is God's temple. This does mean making food at home every night. It should be easy enough, except see #5.

5. Grocery Stores

There is alcohol at grocery stores. They sell anything and everything and at some point they have probably supported a company that believes in stem cells. They also sell cigarettes which is not even a thing in the Bible. You may be able to get away with the wine, but there is too much evil in a grocery store to shop there.

6. Walmart

This one has a bit of everything, so it is much more than a grocery store. Their prices are so low, they probably have child labor somewhere overseas. If you have ever seen "The People of Walmart" you know that you enter at your own risk. Unless of course, you need to get some clothes for $3, love that clearance rack!

7. Facebook

You probably saw the link to this story on Facebook, maybe. Their algorithms are liberal. They hide all the news that Christians are really interested in. The other option is that you tend to click on inflammatory articles more than Christian ones, but that isn't possible so it must be Facebook's fault.

If you have gotten to this point, you may have realized that I boycott none of these places. I may not agree with every company out there, but if I boycott them all, I will end up living on a sheep farm in the mountains with no cell phone. The more attention given to companies, good or bad, is still attention. A true Christian follows their heart, not the crowd. As for me, I will be at Disneyland, sipping my Starbucks latte, wearing my Nikes.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
