Duck Dynasty Guy and Homosexuality Stuff

You know how the duck dynasty guy said something about gay people? And now he's getting suspended from the show? I just wanted to share I like gay people, I support gay marriage, I support love, and I don't care what he said. He wasn't trying to bash anyone. He was simply telling you how he feels about sin.

Mainstream translation of the Bible is the one who put homosexuality in context with things like beastiality, not the guy from Duck Dynasty. I still don't think the Bible had homosexual in there as much as the word probably better translates to whore, like I don't think the Bible ever referred to homosexuality in the context we use that term today (remember it wasn't written in English, and even our own words evolve into a different meaning). I believe Love is not a sin because God is love; however, irresponsible hollow sex is a different story, and you don't have to be gay to involve yourself with that. We all sin. We all get grace. We are allowed to be stupid thanks to Jesus. But we should all still try to do what we feel is right because what we feel is God talking to us. It really is a leap of faith that I feel the way I feel about what the Bible means. Mainstream religion disagrees with me. I cannot judge someone who is trying to do the right thing. He is trying to do the right thing. Just because his belief is in line with A belief the condemning bashing fanatic Bible Thumpers use doesn't mean he is full of the same hate. 

I don't watch all the episodes of Duck Dynasty, but I do like the show. I'm from West Virginia. That's how we do here too. My landlord is wealthy enough for the area that the bank kisses his ass, and he dresses in jeans and flannel and is just really humble. It's beautiful to see people like that. To see people that money just can't touch. You can call it white trash, but I call it keeping it real. 

It doesn't take much watching of the show to get to know Phil. He's my favorite because he's belligerently honest. He's the Dr. Phil of the Duck Dynasty. He is so full of shit, he annoys his own kin. He knows it. He knows his role is humor. He knows it's from speaking his mind. Bluntly. Somewhat incoherently. That's his character. Of course he's going to think homosexuality is a sin. It doesn't take a genius to figure that out. Of course he's not going to fuck with someone just because they are gay. He was raised better than that. He's the type, very obvious type, if he thinks you are going to hell for any reason, he'll sit you down and discuss your soul, but he would still be your friend and let you make your own decisions. That's what we are looking for from the religious community. That is called tolerance. Or better yet, a compromise to coexist. 

"I would never treat anyone with disrespect just because they are different from me. We are all created by the Almighty and like Him, I love all of humanity. We would all be better off if we loved God and loved each other." Definitely sounds like a hateful asshole to me... sarcasm sigh

A&E is just freaking out because of perceived ratings. They don't give a damn about gay people beyond their target market. And they screwed up because Phil was the best character on it. He made it popular. Though this whole thing might be their own publicity stunt... But if you really think something as high in the ivory towers as A&E really cares about your feelings, you are naive. They care about money. Advertising dollars. Ratings. You are a demographic and nothing more to them. That's what makes the gay movement successful. You now have the winning numbers, not the winning argument (well your argument is a good valid one, but that's not why A&E supports you). 

And no offense to my gay male friends, but he is dead right. My vagina is definitely better than anyone's anus. I'm sorry, but it is. I can prove it too. I got three beautiful children who came out of that hole. 

And seriously, if i was interviewing Phil, I would have asked, "So lesbians are ok then right?" We should be shaming the interviewer for not asking that question.

Really, condemning this man for his feelings on a subject is really only going to make that gap between the religious community and the homosexual community larger. Tolerance goes both ways. Religion says it's a sin. You are sinning just like the rest of us. Big deal.
