For the record, I do not have a television, but I am fully aware of who Phil Robertson is. You can hardly go to Wal-Mart without seeing his face on posters. He has clearly made a name for himself with Duck Dynasty, his show on A&E. He and his family have become celebrities, both because of Duck Dynasty and because of his openness with his religious beliefs. Perhaps that will be his "undoing"? If you don't want to know what Phil Robertson believes, it would be best to not ask him. You may get more than you bargained for.
In a recent interview with QC, Phil Robertson let his views on homosexuality be known. A raging firestorm has ensued against him. First, his comments. Consider this a language warning. There is no profanity, but the language is clear because Robertson is plain-spoken.
Liberty News - It seems like, to me, a vagina as a man would be more desirable than a mans anus. Thats just me, Robertson stated. Im just thinking: Theres more there! Shes got more to offer. I mean, come on, dudes! You know what Im saying? But hey, sin: Its not logical, my man. Its just not logical.The views Phil Robertson stated are his own and he is entitled to hold those opinions. I happen to agree with what he said and with the following statement, taken directly from the QC interview. He is paraphrasing the Bible, a passage in Corinthians.We never, ever judge someone on whos going to heaven, hell. Thats the Almightys job, Robertson told GQ. We just love em, give em the good news about Jesus whether theyre homosexuals, drunks, terrorists. We let God sort em out later.
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, he says. Then he paraphrases Corinthians: Dont be deceived. Neither the adulterers, the idolaters, the male prostitutes, the homosexual offenders, the greedy, the drunkards, the slanderers, the swindlersthey wont inherit the kingdom of God. Dont deceive yourself. Its not right.As much as Phil Robertson has just became immensely politically incorrect by daring to voice his opinions and quote the Bible about homosexuality, he is also telling the truth about today's society. That may rub the politically correct crowd the wrong way, but the truth of what he said is not diminished. I must say, it is quite refreshing to hear someone so popular in the entertainment industry be so open and honest with their views.
We Stand With Phil is a Facebook page for people wanting to show their support for Phil Robertson. Amidst the accusations against him, claiming he is guilty of hate speech and saying that the majority of Christians do not believe homosexuality is a sin, there is an outpouring of support for Phil Robertson. It appears he has much more support for his religious views than some people would like to give him credit for.
A&E has since censored Phil Robertson, placing him on suspension from Duck Dynasty. Since it's his show, they may find that hard to pull off, but let them give it their best shot. While a firestorm has exploded over his remarks, there is another fire that has started. In the terminology of a firefighter, I think this would be called a back fire. It is in support of Phil Robertson and it is threatening to do its job and put out the main fire of outrage against a private citizen sharing his views on homosexuality.
Homosexual activists have pushed their agenda for decades. We are seeing more and more references to the normalcy of homosexuality in our pop culture, music, movies, and other entertainment. It is not well received when someone like Phil Robertson dares to share his views with the rest of the world. They want people like him to be punished for the views they hold, instead of being free to express those views. I have no doubt the support that is now being shown for Phil Robertson is adding fuel to the fire of their consternation.
one of the funniest remarks he made when being interviewed was that when women try to hand him a pair of panties to sign, I always first ask them if the panties are clean.. That was during a different interview and when asked a question about his popularity, that was his answer...hooray for honesty...
The Gay Mafia tells Disney what to do.
“Truth is a big deal down here as is faith, family and helping out others. They like guns, pickups, hunting and the American way.”
Pretty much covers it.I would add G.R.I.T.S.
I agree. This is phase 2 of the business plan. Good man, Phil.
Kudos Phil and Duck Dynasty. I just hope they tell A&E to STFU and leave their station. If A&E want to support GLAD and the rest of those freaks let them do it without Duck Dyansty.
After years in the work field, I noticed that homos are most despised by working men who don’t go to church. Truckers and delivery men absolutely hate homos as they can’t stop at a rest stop or truck stop without homos swarming them.
Great article! God bless Phil Robertson for his openness and honesty about his spiritual views. As with Sarah Palin, the Truth trumps the cultural decay. The Truth cuts like a sword into the heart of evil, and no wonder that they want blood in return. The reaction of the left really tells us all we need to know. There is no room for the Truth, for decency, for righteousness, for family values in their ideological world. They will neither defend one’s beliefs in them nor tolerate the person who holds those views.
But to focus on the topic of his ridicule by A&E. Maybe they should take a look at the facts regarding the sexually deviancy and biology of the homosexual ‘lifestyle’.
The bowels were designed by their Creator for ‘exit only’...No matter how they attempt to elevate this sin/deviancy (WARNING: Graphic content)
“...Sexual transmission of some of these diseases is so rare in the exclusively heterosexual population as to be virtually unknown...”
sexually deviancy=sexual deviancy
Buy Duck Commander stuff, not Duck Dynasty. DD is a property of A&E. DC is the Robertson family’s brand. duckcommander.com is a viable web address.
LO_! Don’_ w_nt t_ of_nd a_y lur_kin_ Left_sts.
Replace "as a man" with "as a lesbian" and all the leftest loons would agree.
