“Duck Dynasty”: Let’s Deal in Real Reality
This doesn’t mean we should bury our heads in the sand about genuine free speech and free exercise violations in our theoretically free nation; it just means we ought to be more circumspect than reactionary, more wise than whiny, more joyful than outraged. As “reality” just got the ironic quote-marks taken off of it, maybe this cultural shifting will serve towards a sifting of the “real” Christians from the real ones, the cultural from the Spiritual. Evangelicals need to get real.

Bleh...if the writer was in politics, he'd be pushing for the moderate Republican.
He's completely off with his points, speaking of which, he totally skipped #4. Look at the article, there's a 1), 2), 3), and 5)...no 4).
#1 isn't the issue. A&E and the guys know how to brand the show. What A&E did wasn't about branding, it was about censorship and illegally penalizing Phil for his religious opinions.
#2 isn't the issue either. It's just rank amateur to write something like that. No kidding, Sherlock. But the law does institute safeguards against religious discrimination.
#3 is just a mess. Not sure what he point is, and he probably forgot what the point was.
After that, I just don't care what this guy writes.
Dumb.
