‘Duck Dynasty’ Star’s Anti-Gay Remarks Create a Headache for A&E
Posted in: Uncategorized“Duck Dynasty” patriarch Phil Robertson has condemned homosexuality in a feature on the series’ stars that appears in GQ magazine’s January issue, giving A&E Networks a PR problem around one of its biggest hits.
The article says Mr. Robertson sees the popularity of “Duck Dynasty” as a bit of a corrective in a country losing its values, where “sin becomes fine.” Asked what’s sinful, Mr. Robertson says:
“Start with homosexual behavior and just morph out from there. Bestiality, sleeping around with this woman and that woman and that woman and those men,” he says. Then he paraphrases Corinthians: “Don’t be deceived. Neither the adulterers, the idolaters, the male prostitutes, the homosexual offenders, the greedy, the drunkards, the slanderers, the swindlersthey won’t inherit the kingdom of God. Don’t deceive yourself. It’s not right.”
