Big mistake!
Already, there are over 150 comments on the post, most of them outraged that Farrell would allow Warren in his shop. A couple of them:
"yeah, getting a hatemonger like Rick Warren for a store opening is a sure way to FAIL as a business. good luck with all that..."
"I'm glad there's a Farrell's again. But please don't use a creationist homophobe, who calls atheists and medical doctors "Nazis," to promote the restaurant."
"I have great memories of going to Farrell's as a child; the one on Tustin Avenue. We always had fun there. But using a homophobic, narrow-minded figure to promote the new place is a bad sign...I would think more than twice about going back if I risked being treated to Rick Warren's presence along with my banana split sundae. Farrell's - pay attention. This is not the way to promote family values."
Us? We weren't going whether or not Farrell's seeks Saddleback Church's faithful. Its only attributes seem to be guys dressed on flat hats and vests and disgustingly big sundaes.
