A&E suspended Phil Robertson

I suspect that rednecks will act like rednecks and acting surprised and angry when they do is just silly nonsense.

I never watched the show and know next to nothing about it or the people.

What I do know now is that I won't watch it, and I won't buy their products for the hunters in my family.

I support his right to say anything he wants, even if its idiotic. I believe in his right to be an ass. I also believe in A&E's right to choose who they put on the air.

I agree, it's always better when these people show you who they are right from the beginning.

The fact that you call it hateful, uneducated extremism shows you did not read what he stated. You are the hateful piece of shit, not him.

Here's what he stated. It's ignorant and hateful, how can you say it isn't?

Robertson said in the issue, "Everything is blurred on what's right and what's wrong… Sin becomes fine. Start with homosexual behavior and just morph out from there. Bestiality, sleeping around with this woman and that woman and that woman and those men." Robertson then paraphrased 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 from the Bible: "Don't be deceived. Neither the adulterers, the idolaters, the male prostitutes, the homosexual offenders, the greedy, the drunkards, the slanderers, the swindlers—they won't inherit the kingdom of God. Don't deceive yourself. It's not right." Robertson also added, "It seems like, to me, a vagina—as a man—would be more desirable than a man's anus. That's just me. I'm just thinking: There's more there! She's got more to offer. I mean, come on, dudes! You know what I'm saying? But hey, sin: It's not logical, my man. It's just not logical."[SUP][50][/SUP]

I hope he doesn't ... and I'm watching to see if he does. The statement he issued in response is good enough, IMO. Ever since it has been pointed out to me that there was this Duck Dynasty show and I forced myself to watch it one time, I definitely have enjoyed it. I was one of the almost 9 million who watched their Christmas special last week. Once again, he claims to be a fundamental Christian so folks should expect nothing less when asked to expound upon his beliefs. Some things cannot be compromised and I hope he doesn't.

He has a lot of hate in his heart for someone claiming to be Christian.

God bless Phil Robertson.

Homosexuality, beastiality, it is all the same and goes against nature

Phil don't care. He was 10000% correct

Homosexuality is not "natural" in the sense of biology via procreation between a male and female but the brain function of emotional attachment, affection, love and the chemical reactions between partners is quite natural.

I don't see like that. He said I am a (fundamentalist) Christian and this is what I believe based on what the bible said. He also said "However, I would never treat anyone with disrespect just because they are different from me. We are all created by the Almighty and like Him, I love all of humanity. We would all be better off if we loved God and loved each other.”

To me someone who is full of hate couldn't say that or live like that.

It was a setup and Phil knew it. He's a man. GQ and A&E are a bunch of metrosexual pajama buys, like most of the leftist trash around here.

You've been here nine days* and banned for seven of them, yet you've somehow determined that the lefties here are trash, amirite?

*Not really nine days, huh.

This is what happens when leftists demand "equal rights" for queers. It has nothing to do with equal rights. It's all about silencing any opposition.

There is nothing to oppose. The argument against homosexuality is not even a strong one, let alone the argument of homosexuals being allowed to marry. I say let homosexuals be as miserable as us heterosexuals!

Forget about the homosexual comment for a moment. I was perplexed when he said that in the Jim Crow era where he lived "blacks were happy." I would assume any black person not being lynched and able to live a stable life without the fear of the KKK stringing you up an oak tree would make anyone happy.

He does indeed saying that one type of sin leads to another which is just ridiculous!
