Full story: KSFO-AM San Francisco

The health conscious residents of Loma Linda, a small California city with a large Seventh-day Adventist population, have banned together to fight against the opening of the town's first McDonald's. Nestled in a beautiful stretch of land east of Los Angeles, the 23,000 people who live in Loma Linda enjoy one of the longest life spans in the world ... (more)

What a joke. Loma Linda community and hospital are elitist. When I was down and out 33 years ago in California and was on medicaid, I endured lousy treatment at their hands when my baby was born. I was a member of the church, but I guess having to be on welfare for a year was a SIN.

Isn't there a Ronald McDonald House in Loma Linda? How can they accept that and reject the establishment that makes it possible?

It’s not a joke. It’s an indignity. And it’s also a proof of how small-minded Seventh-day Adventists are! If the Seventh-day Adventist church was really being led of God, then church leaders would be speaking out on issues of substance, such as "The Indefinite Detention Act" and the presence of respected, highly influential spiritualistic teachers within their own church.

Maybe they need to consult Sister White on this. I'm sure there is some general prophecy somewhere that could be used. Defilement of the Holy Land. Shame on McDonalds. Starbucks anyone?

Wow, this link had absolutely NO evidence at all-- the name of the doctor, bishop, and anyone else involved is absent. This is very much like listening to a fairy tale. If you have evidence, present it and don't waste our time with this sort of crap.

Wouldn't want to expose any of the locals to a Happy Meal and a Milkshake. If McDonald's would agree to fry up some vega-meat burgers, Im sure that would be acceptable even though maybe not more nutritious. With a non-SDA controlled business the money doesn't go full circle. That's the real issue here.

they should be outraged and glad to see some of them are exercising their civic duty. But what about Carl's Jr., sitting right by the VA where countless veterans loose their limbs/brains and hearts primarily due to cardiovascular dz thanks to animal fat based diets. The hypocrisy would be to stay quiet and accept the local business.

So shubee says the Adventist church is lead by God????????

Does God lead churches to do Abortion?????

SDA are not the commandment keepers they think
they are. They are not the remant church because
they have proven that by breaking the 6th commandment every day. They brag about keeping the 4th but bresak the 6th everyday of the week and
getting paid for it.

Hi Mr Truth Seeker How are you?

Adventist get mad at me because I post this.
I want them to be mad and to do something about it.
People are afraid to speak up and let there vocie be heard. Afraid of what? What is the worst thing
that could happen? comeing together to stop something that is wrong?? How cold that be wrong. The conference has no right to make decisions of this nature without consulting its members. The members hold
all the power that they need to make the conference
comply to what is right.
No matter what the reason is The church should not
be taking a life. A fetus is alive..The heart is
beating and the fetus can move around.Also it holds the
very dna of BOTH parents...That includes all the
dna of that little fetus's ancestors. Everyone forgets about that. It is not the fetus that is
guilty of wrong doing is it? I can understand the circulstances are not favorable to the mother and
I am sure the mother has been put thru many trails,
but the focus should be on the unborn and what that
fetus will contribute to society. A great evangelist Robinson seen on tv for his great work
done in africa was the baby of rape. His mother
loved him anyway and brought him up to be a man of God. Is there a Man among this forum who can take
the lead in this area????

Maybe they should throw their weight around like they did at Starbucks in Atlanta. Then put out press releases bragging about it. That's a sure fire way to spread the gospel.

So let me get this straight there is an outrage over McDonalds, but not over abortions????
That is a crime in itself, and shows the mentality
of Adventist. When you get older Truth Seeker
no one is intimedating to you and you do not
back down. When truth is on yourside there is no
impossibility just cowards. The conference people
are- what they- are people just like you and I.
Confront them and expose them see them run.

NOw they are on Trinity Broadcasting and have
rented Air time from them. I know Jan and I
am going to email her to disucss this. I do not think that she knows. Oh by the way the reason
why she looks all made up on TV is because
she uses it as a disguise...That way when she
is out and about she can live without being
disturbed.

Totally ridiculous! Nobody can force them to eat there, or to feed their children food from McD's. C'mon, folks! If it were a strip club, I'd agree, but even then... they can choose not to go there. Gimme a break!

Daily Horoscope for June 2

Aquarius

You won't like it if you feel your wings are being clipped today. You want to do something in particular, only to discover that someone is objecting to your plans or that circumstances beyond your control are standing in your way. Although your instincts tell you to throw a tantrum to get your point across, you must ask yourself what this will achieve, and whether it will actually be self-defeating.
