‘Duck Dynasty’ star slammed over anti-gay rant
The New York Post ^ | December 18, 2013 | Andrea Morabito

Phil Robertson, patriarch of the “Duck Dynasty” clan, is being slammed for controversial comments he made about homosexuality in an interview in the January issue of GQ.

“It seems like, to me, a vagina—as a man—would be more desirable than a man’s anus. That’s just me,” Robertson told the magazine. “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.”

When the reporter asked Robertson what he found sinful, he said “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.”

The self-proclaimed Bible-thumper then went on to paraphrase Corinthians: “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.”(continued)

He didn’t say anything hateful or incorrect that I can think of

I haven't a clue what he said was wrong other than the gay mafia brooks no dissent.

The man is entitled to his personal beliefs. He was not saying gays should be rounded up and done away with.

Nothing. Not a damn thing.

Remember, kids, in a time of universal deceit (thanks to our fascist leftist deviants and their apologists and enforcers), telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

I have never watched this show.

Guess I need to download a few episodes and give it a squint.

He was speaking the truth from the unalterable Word of God about sodomites and their evil ways. The Lord will Mightily Bless Mr. Phil Robertson and the entire family.

Sounds to me like he quoted or paraphrased I Corinthians 6:9-10. It wasn’t just his personal opinion. If that’s the case, GLAAD’s beef isn’t with him, it’s with the Bible:

1 Corinthians 6:8-10
New International Version (NIV)

8 Instead, you yourselves cheat and do wrong, and you do this to your brothers and sisters. 9 Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men[a] 10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.

Footnotes:
a.1 Corinthians 6:9 The words men who have sex with men translate two Greek words that refer to the passive and active participants in homosexual acts.

>> What did he say that was incorrect?

His antagonists are essentially equating the anus with the vulva. That’s twisted. And it’s the major network, A&E, that’s championing the misogyny.

Defending sodomy is the only correct position in the liberal world. So unless Robertson accepts the thought if anal sex between two men as being normal he is wrong in the eyes of the left. That is how disgustingly perverted society has become.

Welcome to Obama's America.

That’s exactly what Ass & Entertainment is doing.

Maybe he should have retold the story of Sodom and Gomorrah. They refused Lot’s daughters and wanted the male angels/messengers. BOOM!!!

I also object to Murdoch's Post characterizing the truth as articulated by Mr. Robertson as a rant. This is a dismissive term implying what he said were the ravings of a madman. This is just further proof that Murdoch and his vast empire (with muzzie investors in key positions) aren't allies to Conservatives or Christians.

What you stated in another post, GeronL, needs to be become a reality. A FreeRepublic television network. Mr. Robertson and our own Mr. Robinson would be a formidable duo on the side of Truth, speaking out for American Exceptionalism and Godly Principles.

I watch and enjoy Duck Dynasty and other A&E programs. I will notch that network again until Mr. Robertson is reinstated, with an apology from A&E.

A & E is a joint venture between Hearst Corporation and Disney-ABC Television Group, a subsidiary of The Walt Disney Company.

Boycott them all!

And that’s exactly why they deserve to lose this money-making show.

I can’t wait to see the reaction of the rest of the family.

Ditto’s with the “self proclaimed Bible thumper” description.

Yes, but to hear gays tell the story of Sodom and Gomorrhah, they claim that the "real" sin was being "rude".

Not the way I've read it.

The gays wanted to "know" the angels, as in having sex with them.

That is the accepted version of "know" in the Bible.

As far as I understand it, gays have never challenged this interpretation of "know".

And that is a VERY gentle description of what the homosexuals REALLY wanted to do.

I'm not a Biblical scholar, but the intent was quite clear.

And I've never heard of God destroying an entire city over "rudeness".

Perhaps someone can clarify if I'm wrong.
