Hmao & Neophile - LOL!! Conservative Christians have nothing better to do than pick on a frigging logo? Why don't they spend their time doing worthwhile things? They are downright FUNNY!

Well just look at the topics they tend to obsess over most loudly: homosexuals and abortion. Then look at what they most often ignore: the poor, marginalized and those in need of care and love. Then look at Christ's example.

Then you will see that they're Christians only in self-proclaimation.

When was the last time you saw video footage of a Christian carving off some gay guy's head to mind-less chants of "Jesus is Great?!?" Easy to attack a faith that doesn't put fatwas on people. By the way, we ALL could help those in need more.

The mormons hooking up gays to jumper cables to "cure" them is close enough.

Mormons do that? Gad, maybe the "Angel Moroni" WAS the "Angel Gabriel"!

Are these the same people who were finding penises in the clouds in Disney movies?

Well I'll say one thing for Starbucks, when all else fails, sex sells.

Come on, get real! With all the problems that we have right now, this is not one of them. These thin skinned people really get my goat.

Lighten up people. Put some extra milk in your coffee. I don't care much for Starbucks' coffee but in response to this group's call to boycott Starbucks, I think I'll stop in get me a cup. Sheesh with all the problems in this world, they couldn't find something more obscene...like women and children being killed in a senseless war?

It is a low way to make a sale. We all know about conditioned response eg.-Pavlov's dog- what's wrong with pointing out some companies lude presentation of itself? The problem is that generally we are becoming more accustomed to sexual deviance so that it is the acceptable "norm". We have also lost the real value of the sexual relationship, and that has been part and parcel with corporate sales by promoting a sensual "hook" with their advertising.

This hardly appears deviant to me. Weird maybe, but not deviant. I suspect that nobody looks at the logo. But now they will.

I wonder if those "Christians" shower with clothes on?

Remember the 13th Commandment

Starbuck's coffee still sucks, though. I can do a better job with a cup of ice, some milk, some Hersey's dark chocolate syrup, some General Foods International Coffee, and my Magic Bullet Blender.

Puritanical idiocy.

Onward Christian Soldiers..

By all means let them get their knickers in a twist over this utterly nonsensical non-issue!

Less time for them to propagandise and sell their shoddy pablum to [fortunately NOT so] impressionable youth or interfere with human beings' rights over their own bodies.

Lets hear it for the mermaids!

Starbucks definitely is getting blowback!

Can't say I ever liked them too much, partly because of the ridiculous names you were supposed to call things, but also because they lost whatever hip cachet they had when they started appearing on every corner.

Then the prices got so absurd that you almost had to take out a mortgage to buy a cup of coffee.

Useful places to meet people till it became too easy to get confused about which one it was that you were meeting at.

There is definitely something fishy about this picture. I thought a mermaid only had ONE tail. Well, if seeing a picturee of a two tailed mermaid posed sexually turns you on, then take up marine biology.
