A&E suspended Phil Robertson

He doesn't say that you are going to do all of them or that one leads to any other in particular. Or do you think he was saying homosexual behavior leads to 'sleeping with this woman and that woman and that woman'??? Do you also argue that he was saying that?

You are reading into what he said because you want to stomp your foot and hate the man for what he said.

he does indeed lump all 'sins' (as he sees them via his bible) together. So at best you could say that he was saying they were all the same in his eyes. Beastiality and homosexuality and promiscuity etc...

But he said "START with homosexual behaviour and just morph out from there."
 
Superfreak said:
Your problem is you think it was 'homosexuality' that he was referring to when he used the word morph. But the question asked of him is 'what is sinful'... SIN is what was morphing. Or do you think he meant homosexuality also morphed into drunkenness and sleeping with a lot of women etc...???

Do you think he meant that if you commit one sin you will automatically commit all of them? Or do you think he meant that if you sin in one fashion, you are more likely to keep sinning in other fashions as well?

I disagreed with him even before the morphing business. He started by saying “Everything is blurred on what’s right and what’s wrong… Sin becomes fine."

That's a really big sweeping generalization.

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

No, he doesn't. You simply proclaiming he does, does not make it so. You and many on the left continue to project YOUR desires for what his feelings and thoughts are onto him. You express what YOU want his comments to mean so that you may bash him for it. Again, it says far more about your character and class than it does his.

yes... from one SIN to the next SIN...

I will ask you since Rana refused to answer... do you think that means he thinks homosexual activity will lead to sleeping with a lot of women?

Apparently so, or he picked a very bad way to phrase it.

I've never said anything even close to what the duck guy said because who am I to judge?

If this guy really heeded the words of Jesus he would show more tolerance and mercy to people who don't share his beliefs. He said “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.”

I think it's incredibly arrogant for anyone to pronounce who will or won't inherit the kingdom. If duck guy believes that Jesus is omniscient, omnipotent and perfect, then he should know that Jesus isn't going to judge people the way we judge each other.

This is from the GQ interview. His view is that America is going to hell in a hand basket because Christian principles are being diluted.

"...in Robertson’s worldview, America was a country founded upon Christian values (Thou shalt not kill, etc.), and he believes that the gradual removal of Christian symbolism from public spaces has diluted those founding principles. (He and Si take turns going on about why the Ten Commandments ought to be displayed outside courthouses.) He sees the popularity of Duck Dynasty as a small corrective to all that we have lost.
“Everything is blurred on what’s right and what’s wrong,” he says. “Sin becomes fine.”
