Phil Robertson breaks his silence: REFUSES to back down from anti-gay comments
Daily Mail ^ | 12/22/13 | Staff

Posted on 12/22/2013 3:54:48 PM PST by BunnySlippers

Robertson – who made his fortune from inventing and manufacturing hunting equipment before finding TV stardom – went on: ‘We are a bunch of rednecks from Louisiana, but I am not uneducated, I have a degree from Louisiana Tech. 'But this week I have been called an ignoramus. This week I have been asked, "Is this the first time you have brought up sin?" I said, "Are you kidding? I have been traveling to and fro spreading this message." 'Then he said, "Well do you invite yourself to go and get your Bible and tell people what you are now sharing with us." I said, "No they are inviting me."

One thing I’ve learned:

When a Conservative says ‘tolerance’ what they mean is ‘casual indifference.’

When a Progressive says ‘tolerance’ what they mean is ‘celebratory approval.’

The prerecorded 2014 Season airs January and Phil is in it. New 2015 episodes are up in the air.

Read and understand people

From the article:

Yesterday Entertainment Weekly claimed that despite his suspension, Robertson will be back on the hugely popular show – which regularly pulls in 12 million viewers – when filming recommences in January.

They quoted a source saying: ‘The network also hopes the media and fan furor will cool down over the holidays and that tensions over shooting future episodes can then be resolved. There’s no negotiation to have; we’re doing the show.’

Perhaps you missed that part of the article?

I agree.

And, as a society, I think we need to decide to what extent we are going to allow entities like GLAAD to shove us around.

GLAAD was on a live 3 AM morning call to fire Phil. WHY would A&E allow them this access?

You nailed it, Green66.

As Phil would say ..... “That’s good shootin’”.

Exactly. WHAT did he say that was anti-gay ? He noted that he just didn’t get the attraction, and that it was on a list of sins in the Bible. . .

But according to the homopsycho agenda, that is “anti-gay”. So is being happy if one’s father was married to one’s mother and if one was brought up by one’s father and one’s mother.

If A&E were really offended by his opinion they would not air the 2014 episodes. This is all for show and they need to be called out about being hypocrites!

Ya know, even tonight, the American media, including Drudge and other online outlets, have muddied their reporting of this week’s events so badly that the public is not certain where the components of the different stories really stand now. DD merch has been confused with DC merch, CB’s lack of good management skills is confused with A&E’s suspension or non-suspension of Phil. Phil’s not apologizing for anything is being called something new...

Ladies and gents, we are—and have been—living in the very real Orwellian 1984 in the USA. God save our Nation.

>> they want to be “Celebrated.”

Cuz they’re of course “gay”...

FWIW, gay is defined as 1) homosexual, 2) lighthearted and carefree, and 3) foolish, stupid... {snort}

He allows these people to sit in his Bible study group then they write more lies about him. He never said one homophobic.

Why are the beastiality folks not being defended? He mentioned them, too. Oh, I know. Nobody is willing to step up and say having sex with a dog is okay. Yet.

I don’t attend church. Are there any preachers that still preach against sexual depravity? Or are all of them afraid, too?
