Duck Dynasty's Phil takes a stand

Wow!  Phil was asked a question and gave an answer.  Now A&E is banning him. 

Here is one of the responses that is in support of Phil.

I also find it interesting that Barbara Walter's is on TV with her most facinating people of 2013 and Duck Dynasty is #8 on her list. (Phil was not present during the interview because it was hunting season)

In a world where tollerence is herolded it appears that only applies to the other guy. 

Why do all these groups of people feel that they should have the right not to be offended?"

If you don't want the answer don't ask the question. 

For me - It was refreshing to see someone call sin for what it is.  I appreciate seeing someone trying to live a way of life that is not swayed by popular opinion but founded on beliefs and defended by the Bible. 

Another site announcing the banning of Phil made it clear that his remarks were not A&E's views.  They went so far as to describe themselves as "Champions" for (sin?)....





The sidebar has (at the time of this writing) an advertisement and gallery including Phil and the Duck Dynasty family.  This really does blur the lines...

Merry Christmas / Peace on Earth

 A call to action. 

Waiting for someone to do something...

(From HWL's poem "Christmas Bells")

And in Despair I bowed my head
"There is no peace on earth" I said
"for hate is strong and mocks the song
of Peace on earth, good-will to Men!"

Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:
"God is not dead, nor doth he sleep;
the Wrong shall fail, The Right Prevail
with Peace on earth, good-will to men."

 Another thing crosses my mind when I think about this

 From "Les Mis"

"You've done your duty - Nothing more."


Still Waiting for someone to do something?


Merry Christmas / Peace on earth
