. This quote is from someone I know and I want to know if you agree with him or not.

"Phil Robertson doesn't agree with homosexuality. He was expressing his right of freedom speech so he is banned from A&E. It's apparently okay to agree with being gay but if you disagree with it that's not okay. Flaunting that you're a ****** is okay but if I say I don't like it and it's weird all of sudden I'm an *******. Lol **** you ******s don't get so butthurt."

Obviously this guy could have worded his message a little better, but moving on.

I personally have no problem with homosexuality, as it affects me in no way shape or form. But if someone says that he doesn't believe in homosexuality and gets banned from a TV series [quite popular], who is at fault?

What's up with the sexual orientation threads lately, almost as if people are trying to start a flame war..

 

[Booker]

It's absurd to ban a man from his own show because of his viewpoints.

I am not against homosexuality. I was just trying to start a productive conversation.

Michael Jordan said it best

"Republicans buy shoes, too"

for those who don't know . . . Michael Jordan was asked if he would support a black democrat and he said "Republicans buy shoes, too"

I'm sorry. :hug:

It is quite alright. I know most of the members on this site cannot have a proper conversation about such a topic, and this might end in a flame war if some trolls come in here.

I know, hence I said that.

I agree, what he said wasnt even bad, just saying he didnt agree with it

 

[ANiMUS]

They are just trying to use the guy as a scapegoat. If they didn't want him to give a con traversal opinion they shouldn't have asked the question. The guy shouldn't be penalized for speaking according to his faith.

I guess it outraged some viewers, so to prevent loss of viewings, they cut him.

Actually I think he said something to the affect that homosexuality is a sin and that it is just as bad as bestiality

Pretty much. He messed with the money... Never mess with a man's money. u.u

 

[Sir Blades]

I think it was not necessary, it wasn't like he was bashing or insulting, he just said he doesnt agree with it. Nothing wrong there.

I don't understand? My mind may be clouded because I don't think MJ like black people(there is alot of proof)

I know. I said he could have worded it better. z.z

But, he is a die hard Christian. I don't know why they asked him that though.

Personally, I don't agree with his opinion, but hey, everyone has one right?

 

[Booker]

I even agree with Robinson. I don't understand it. I can't fathom why a man would sexually prefer another man over a woman. That, and it isn't in accordance with my faith.

I can't stop people from doing what they want, I just don't agree with it.

Robinson should not have been banned.
