Is Coca-Cola really discriminating against Christians? Some Christians are calling for a boycott on purchasing Coca-Cola products due to issues with the company’s personalized can feature. Are you considering supporting the boycott? Before you decide whether to or not, it’s wise to gather more information.

I didn't watch the video but heard about this. Apparently they are not allowing Jesus to be mentioned on the can? But anything else is ok?

I always liked Pepsi better...more zingy. LOL

Apparently they've banned all religious figures from their personalized cans now. But I don't really blame them for initially blocking Jesus and Trump2024. Not because I hate Jesus, but because maga is tarnishing the name of Christ and Christianity.

The pastor in the video investigated it and found that Coca-Cola was allowing Jesus to be mentioned on the can. The programming was inconsistent and the company has shut it down.

Same. (Which didn’t go over well in Atlanta, home of the Coca-Cola Company).

Welcome to the forum.

It’s a business. A big business. It was a big business decision.

I prefer Pepsi if offered a choice between Coke and Pepsi, but their business decision has nothing to do with it.

Politicians come and go.

If they hoped to earn more of my business, blocking Jesus was a bad big business decision.

if anyone is still drinking Coca Cola, they have far worse things to worry about than discrimination.

Here is some info about CocaCola:

We had a few rusted items in the garage.
A few bolts and nuts, I put then in Coca Cola and it cleaned up nicely.
Just think what Coca Cola does to the inside of your belly.

My daughter did a science project in the 8th grade involving a 16 penny nail and a bottle of Coke, it did not go well for the nail.

Did your daughter compare stomach acidity with the acidity of Coke in her science project?

No she did not. If I remember correctly we sumbersed a nail in Coke and one in water, taking measurements each week over the period of a month or so. The nail did not completely dissolve, but it was much smaller.
From what I remember of my own science classes, I suspect that the hydrocloric acid in the stomach would have dissolved the nail even more rapidly. Not a theory I care to test however.
