I’m not religious personally but TGI Fridays is a very popular after-church spot (according to all of the religious/former religious people I asked). Why are none of them mad about this?

How could they actively support a restaurant so sinful it includes a sin in the title?

    Is it me or are people thinking more about religion lately? I know I am so I might be biased but some friends and family have brought it up as well despite none of us being religious.

      My fiancé was raised extremely religious and managed to escape that life. The childhood teaching and consequences of said upbringing are always prevalent for us.

      As for everyone else… The religious far-right has been growing rapidly across the entire globe so I imagine that has at least a part in it.

      I reconnected with some old colleagues recently and they’re both turned religious. One of them already was but it seemed much more intense now, the other seems surprising to me. Very unusual in my circles, I basically never interact with religious people or if I do it’s so superficial it doesn’t come up.

      Might have something to with the easter season, oh and something about a dead Pope? Don’t worry it’ll die down once beach season starts up.
