Chick-fil-A caused quite the fuss last week by taking a stance against gay marriage.

The company was criticized by the mayor of Boston, who promised to stop any attempt by Chick-fil-A to enter the city. Then, the Jim Henson Company spoke out against Chick-fil-A and ended its partnership with the company.

President and COO Dan Cathy, the man who made the remarks slamming gay marriage, is?the son of Chick-fil-A's founder and patriarch, 91-year-old S. Truett Cathy.

The Cathys are the reason that Chick-fil-A has its reputation as a values-based company with strong Christian ideals.?The family and their ideals are also a big reason that the Chick-fil-A brand is beloved by many, but hated by others.

So, how did we get to this point? Who is this self-made billionaire behind the second-largest fast food chicken chain in America?
