A few years ago the broker we were with at the time recommended Starbucks to us as a good investment. We bought a few hundred shares of Starbucks and we have made money on the deal, but when I read this article in World Net Daily, I’ve decided to show it to my husband today and see if he wants to contact our financial adviser and dump this stock.

An Ohio woman is steaming after reading an anti-God message published on the side of a Starbucks coffee cup.

The message that got Michelle Incanno’s blood boiling reads:

“Why in moments of crisis do we ask God for strength and help? As cognitive beings, why would we ask something that may well be a figment of our imaginations for guidance? Why not search inside ourselves for the power to overcome? After all, we are strong enough to cause most of the catastrophes we need to endure.”

The quote was written by Bill Schell, a Starbucks customer from London, Ontario, Canada, and was included as part of an effort by the Seattle-based coffee giant to collect different viewpoints and spur discussion.

“As someone who loves God, I was so offended by that,” Michelle Incanno, a married mother of three who is Catholic, told the Dayton Daily News. “I don’t think there needs to be religious dialogue on it. I just want coffee.”

Incanno of Springboro, Ohio, admits she had been a huge fan of Starbucks before discovering the message, always ordering a large, house-brewed coffee with nonfat milk and two Splenda.

“I wouldn’t feel right going back,” she said.

Why do people who don’t believe in God always have to give us a back-handed slap in the face by saying He’s a figment of our imagination?

Who am I hurting by believing in God and telling you I do? I can’t force anyone to believe what I believe at the risk of your life, so who am I hurting?

The way I see it, we have two choices for eternity. We die and go to Heaven if we have accepted Jesus as our Savior, or we die and we go to hell if we haven’t.

The way those who do not believe in God see it, I guess for the most part, is we die and go to the grave and that’s it.

So, if I’m wrong what have I got to lose? I don’t believe I’m wrong though. If they’re wrong what do they have to lose other than their eternal life?

Eternal death is the separation from God, realizing He is God and knowing and being fully aware that you rejected Him in life. That along with the torments meant for Satan and his band of followers.

As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. Joshua 24:15 (b)

I’m not a coffee drinker. The only thing I like about coffee is the smell, so I’m not a Starbucks customer, but I’m with Ms. Incanno: I don’t feel right keeping their stock.
