Makes me furious that such a small percentage has this much power.
I would love for the Robertson's to pull out of the contract with A&E and go on another channel.
As Larry the Cable Guy says, "What is this, Russia?"

I expected they would do something about it as well. And I agree - it makes me furious that such a small percentage have this much power. Mainly, the left media.
This panel with Megan Kelly really lines it out - the gay person is saying it is "hate speech". To preach the Bible is "hate speech" in his mind.
"It's time we stop agreeing that religion can be used to spew hate and cause people to feel bad about themselves."
LOL! We sure don't want to feel convicted of anything now, do we?
Although this guy is on the wrong side of our 1st Amendment rights, I feel the church needs to check itself on how we deliver our views of sin. For instance, I believe it comes across, many times, as hateful to say, "God didn't make Adam and Steve....." Sometimes, JMO, it comes across as though there is no way of deliverance, and then we pile on a little more fear of our environment. Of course, that is just me and the impression I get when I hear those words.

Essentially, the Left is saying you can have your private religious beliefs, but in America now, you cannot say what you believe. That is NOT what the First Amendment is all about.

And while Phil's wording of his view of a man and woman's body was rather "redneck", he is saying what a lot of straight people have been thinking all along.
He also never equated homosexuality with beastiality. He merely ticked off a list of sinful practices.
