Hold the mayo...
One of the events I look forward the most when I go home to Texas is devouring a Whataburger. They are delicious, remind me of home, and did I mention delicious? I was recently in Texas to celebrate Mother’s Day with my family and drove through a Whataburger. I was sitting next to the window waiting for them to custom make my cheeseburger when I noticed a confusing sign. “One Nation Under God” posters gleaned from every side of the building. Whoa. I had to remind myself that I am (a) in Texas and (b) patronizing a family restaurant in Texas. It was a bit blindsiding though, I have to admit. I was raised by three Methodist ministers so I have nothing against Religion, except, when it starts leaking into the political system and now my #1 with cheese. It is unfortunate enough that the division of church and state has crumbled but now the division of church and dining out has been breached as well. Obviously, companies are entitled to do business in any way that they choose, however, I am not interested in having the Lord look down on me when I am breaking bun.
