re: 'Duck Dynasty': A&E warned Phil Robertson about speaking out too much [W:1111]

and since He didn't speak out against homosexuality.........

Like, Duh!

You can't even follow your own assertions to their rightful conclusions.

You think you know better than Jesus, and you call ME arrogant?
Utter absurdity. Like d'oh!
You are trying to spin.
It doesn't work the way you are trying to spin.

The norm was that it was an sin and an abomination. He did not speak out against that. Not at all. It remains so.

And since it was the norm within the belief, as stated; the persecution of gay folks, in that belief would have been the norm, and he did not speak out against that.
This is the logical conclusion of what was said and what is more likely, not your arrogant assumptions.
 
re: 'Duck Dynasty': A&E warned Phil Robertson about speaking out too much [W:1111]

There is no connection except that which you made up.
He spoke about his experience.
It may be the norm or isolated. It does not change thew fact that it was his experience.
Anything else are the manifestations of your own biased thoughts.

Again in a context. Then versus now. You're just trying to hide from it.

Wrong. Nor are you in context.



The last time I checked, "Pre-entitlement, pre-welfare,", had nothing to do with civil-rights.


Your assertions are just manifestations of your biased thoughts.

Good grief, he was speaking of the black people he knew around him at the time....Why is that so hard for you to understand?
 
re: 'Duck Dynasty': A&E warned Phil Robertson about speaking out too much [W:1111]

Bull, you conflate to make yourself feel better about the lies being told about this man.

Nonsense. The quote and the context are linked. Pretend if you want, but don't expect others to pretend with you.

Didn't they come after civil rights? Think now.

Got that contract clause yet?

Yes, in the context of then versus now. Not just memories, but pre civil rights versus post civil rights. That is clearly stated in the article.
 
re: 'Duck Dynasty': A&E warned Phil Robertson about speaking out too much [W:1111]

I have the report. That's enough for now.

No. :doh
Some like Social Security came before, some came after.

Under President Franklin D. Roosevelt, the Social Security Act was enacted in 1935. The act, which was amended in 1939, established a number of programs designed to provide aid to various segments of the population. Unemployment compensation and AFDC (originally Aid to Dependent Children) are two of the programs that still exist today.
US Welfare System - Help for US Citizens

All you have is a report saying it is a possibility.
Not a definite.
And another based on an unknown source.
You have nothing.

I'll decide what is enough....Got that contract clause yet?

Exactly. But he was speaking pre civil rights versus post civil rights. He throws in welfare as the cause, but you point out that happened before. I never said he was smart or knowledgable.

It's good enough for now. And quite likely.

He was speaking about his personal experience.
That is all.
It is you trying to attache more to it than that.

No, read the article. It's a comparison if then and now, ore and post. Context.

Wrong.
There is no other context than that which he provided.
He was working alongside. They were happy.
Which was prior to "Pre-entitlement, pre-welfare," as he saw it, which is his personal experience.

You have nothing that says his personal experience is wrong. Nothing.

If you believe that you would fail reading and critical thinking 101.

Wrong.


The author of the article (not Phil) frames it as "Phil On Growing Up in Pre-Civil-Rights-Era Louisiana"

That would be you as he was speaking about personal experience.
Not the carp that you tried to assert.

Wrong.

The context. Pre civil rights. Phil then adds now. That's post civil rights. Thus a comparison.

You do understand personal experience is what we use often to make comparisons? You repeat that like it disputes something. It doesn't. It supports my claim.

That is not the context.
That is how the author chose to frame it.
Phil was not speaking about Pre civil anything. He was speaking about his personal experience.
There is no connection between what he said and any connotations you wish to absurdly assert.

It does not support you claim at all.

It was better before civil rights. That's the obvious connection.

The above is nothing more than the manifestations of your biased thoughts.

Thank you, so you have NO theological background, and further established yourself hostile to Christians as a general approach, and now you want to bat around scripture like you know what you are talking about?

Your opinion concerning scripture means nothing to me, and you ought to be ashamed that you are so dishonestly using the bible in your smear of someone who answered the question paraphrasingly accurate. You are trying to use the bible against him, and are ignorant for that reason. That's my opinion.
I'm a huge fan of the teachings of Christ. I'm just not a hypocrite like most American Christians.
