I think he meant what he said. I think he is right too. People manage to seek out and find happiness even in the most trying of times. You should try operating on that level sometime. When you start reading into what you think people meant you look like an idiot and all you do is smear your own personal hatred and bigotry over every subject you discuss.

Well, when someone says blacks were happy picking cotton prior to civil rights in the Jim Crow South, I take issue. Sad to hear you, with all your claimed religious enlightenment, find remarks like that acceptable.

Hey. They all had nice things to say too.

I would think the proper response is to distance oneself from such speech and the person saying it. But, hey, that's just my opinion.

I feel the same way when the stupid, dogmatic portion of the left gets confused with liberals.

Hate filled, bible thumping hillbillies are certainly part of the right, though they do not represent it much like anti-American Jihadist apologists are part of the left, but do not represent it, either.

I may have mentioned before that there is nothing "correct" about the "right" if used in context..
I like using the suffix -ist to the right, as in "right-ist", following the rightist lead as they use Mao-ist and left-ist..
Prefixes like arch- and ultra- now enter..

I'm now moving to RITE-ist, as RITE refers to a pagan..
As my wife pointed out, Duckk doesn't even measure up to the "prodigal son", as he now sits as a judge on "lessers" .

They, Rite-ists, completely miss that point. He's judging and they say he's only expressing an opinion based on scripture. The unChristian-like judging goes whoosh, right over the heads of these people.

Seriously? You know if they get married at 16 they're having sex at 16 - at least after marriage.
Click to expand...

Yes, I do. I think that sex in a committed marriage is better than sex outside of marriage, hence my statement that being married at 16 is preferable to sleeping around at 16.

And marriage - you're saying it's better if someone at age 16 who doesn't really have a clue what they will end up doing gets married (so they can have sex) - a technically lifetime commitment - rather than have some sex (protected) and give themselves time to find out who they are and what they want to be.
Click to expand...

Yes, that is what I am saying. I would rather they abstain from sex until marriage and get married in their 20s, but we aren't discussing what I think would be ideal.

There is something to be said for marrying young, though, since the older you get the more locked in your ways you become and the harder it gets to find someone to share your life with. If you marry young, you will develop your personality with the person you will be living the rest of your life with. There is something to said for marrying your high school sweetheart.

Yes, some couples that get married at 16 work out. Lots don't.
Click to expand...

Same could be said for getting married at any age.

I would hate to see a 16 yr old getting married; it's too permanent a commitment.

Your life's true pleasures, and the path to true happiness, reside in the lifelong commitments.

Ditto with Gay Pride Parade chap-wearing flamboyant homosexuals are not representative of all gays. But, they will always be brought up whenever gay rights are discussed.

Obviously, a 16 year old boy cannot care for a family in this day and age. So in reality, you see nothing wrong with an older man marrying a 16-year old girl. Do you prefer she remain barefoot and pregnant or can she at least finish high school?

Pretty lame that your Phil-defense has led you down the path where you now advocate Ephebophilia.

Yes, he said black people were happier pre-civil rights. Most of us find that, at the very least, off-putting if not downright appalling.

Well, they were happier. They were religious, happy, intact families and church going people. Sadly now the illigimitate birth rate is 80%, walking around uneducated, unemployed, angry, and running in packs causing trouble with a large % in jail and prison. I am shocked how black women allow those guys to take advantage of them, saddle them with kids and can't get an education to improve their lives or the lives of their children
The rules of advancement in getting and keeping out of poverty is:
finish High School
get a job and work hard
don't have a baby unmarried and don't get married till over 25.

Oh yeah I'm sure they were so happy without voting rights, being discriminated against and beaten to death if they even touched a white person. :roll:

Did you get your information from Stormfront?

No there ios such info.

So again.

He appeared the way he does now before the show was even started.

As I previously said.
"That is no more real than how they appear now."

If you haven't realized it yet. He appears the way he does now in the 2010 sermon on youtube.
How he appeared then, is how he appears now, which is in real life, and not made up for a show.

Calamity...I've been following along with your posts. Phil Robertson is a bigot and racist. And he's all of the other things that you've described with regard to his religious fanaticism. If what Phil Robertson is claiming to represent his beliefs are based on tenet in his religion...and other within his religion aren't speaking out against his comments...then they are as bigoted and racist as he is.

And as I posted, the whole family imagine of being "swamp hicks" is a sham. The whole "cotton pickin -poor white trash" gig is a sham.

The REALITY SHOW isn't a reality...it's about a made up set of characters, which aren't in fact swamp hicks, that attract a lot of viewers, which makes the network a lot of money.

Phil pissed in his peanut butter. Now the network is pissed and rightfully so. The network pays a lot of money to the Robertson to pretend to be as they're portrayed on the show.

Duck's words are right out of the KKK mantra of the 1920's..
Back then, the KKK opposed immigration of Eastern and Southern Europeans..
You know who Duckk/GOP/TEAts oppose now, RITE ?

And as a hunter, his appearance is in accord.
