A&E Reverses, Welcomes Back Pro-Life Phil Robertson to Duck Dynasty After a national debate about sexual moral and values following A&E’s decision to kick Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson off of the program, the cable television channel has relented and issued a statement late Friday welcoming him back.
An A&E statement to The Hollywood Reporter read: As a global media content company, A+E Networks’ core values are centered around creativity, inclusion and mutual respect. We believe it is a privilege for our brands to be invited into people’s home and we operate with a strong sense of integrity and deep commitment to these principals... http://www.lifenews.com/2013/12/27/ae-reverses-welcomes-back-pro-life-phil-robertson-to-duck-dynasty/

Editorial: Duck Dynasty & the Bible

Editorial

Of course the issue of the week was Phil Robertson's comments about homosexuality being a sin. Some pundits are trying to hedge their own position by saying they agree with what Mr. Robertson said, but not how he said it? He paraphrased Leviticus 18 from the Hebrew scriptures (Old Testament), and then he quoted I Corinthians 6:9-10 from the New Testament, which was written by the Apostle Paul. The Apostle Paul is known as the apostle of grace, and yet this writing of Paul's was written after the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ, therefore, it is part of what Christians are still commanded to follow. It is not a "law that was fulfilled" which is a misapplication of Matthew 5:17, but rather is a post "nailed to the cross" scripture that is still binding on Christians!

Robertson discusses in his GQ interview his religious beliefs and about sin, saying, “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.” http://www.lifenews.com/2013/12/20/phil-robertson-i-will-not-back-down-from-standing-on-biblical-principles/

Tell A&E Thought Police to Reinstate Duck Dynasty Star‏

A timely post about from HTTPS://PrayFor.US about sending a letter of protest on behalf of Duck Dynasty. This follows this post about problems from John Boehner. This follows this post about beheadings in Brazil in the run-up to the World Cup.  In the meantime, you can get more involved if you like here and read an interesting book HERE.
Freebie: Tell A&E Thought Police to Reinstate Duck Dynasty Star

The A&E Television Networks has fired the Christian star of its most popular show, "Duck Dynasty," because he quoted the Bible!
It's time to rally the troops and come to Phil Robertson's defense because he has been such a great champion of the Christian faith.
Pray For US is actively engaged in battle with the political forces in this country that are trying to do great harm to the Body of Christ. But on occasion, we also get involved when other significant events in the culture war, such as this, take place.
Phil Robertson is now being attacked by the politically correct thought police for sharing the Gospel with millions and millions of people in a magazine article.
Phil was unjustly fired for exercising his free speech rights.
For this campaign, we have assembled the fax numbers for the head honchos at the A&E Television Networks, as well as some key figures on the Board of Directors for ABC/Disney Television and the Hearst Corporation (those two companies are co-owners of A&E, which airs the "Duck Dynasty" program).
Please send FaxGrams, at no cost or obligation to you, to the ten network executives on this list.  Tell them to reinstate Phil Robertson on "Duck Dynasty" and to apologize for the way they've treated him!
We are called to come to the defense of our Christian brothers and sisters when they are in need.
In 1 John 4:20-21, it states, "He who says, 'I love God,' and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? And this commandment we have from him: that he who loves God must love his brother also."
We need to show our love for Phil Robertson now by speaking out to the network fascists who were "offended" because he spoke the truth, straight from God's word, regarding homosexuality.
Please send your FaxGrams to these network head honchos today and tell them to reinstate the star of "Duck Dynasty" immediately!

Phil was asked what he thought sin was in a recent magazine interview.  A&E fired him because his answer to that question was the same as God's:
"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."
That's not an exact quote, but it mirrors the purity laws described in Leviticus 18.  Phil then continued by paraphrasing 1 Corinthians 6:9, stating:
"Don't be deceived. Neither the adulterers, the idolaters, the male prostitutes, the homosexual offenders, the greedy, the drunkards, the slanderers, the swindlers -- they won't inherit the kingdom of God. Don't deceive yourself. It's not right."
He used his celebrity to share the Gospel with millions through that statement.
The intolerant homosexual mafia immediately demanded that Phil be fired, so the cowards at A&E complied, in spite of the fact that "Duck Dynasty" is one of the most popular programs in cable television history.
Phil Robertson's firing was unjust. It was a violation of his First Amendment right to freedom of speech and by firing him, it is a violation of his religious rights as well.
It is time for the Christian community in America, and for all people who truly believe in freedom of speech, to start punching back at these Nazi-like thought police who want to silence any dissenters.
Please send your FaxGrams to the network executives today and demand that they reinstate Phil and offer a full apology to him!
 
We will pick up the tab on your FaxGrams for this campaign. All we ask in return is that you share the campaign with as many of your family members, friends and acquaintances as possible.
Another way to help come to Phil Robertson's defense is by sending this link to everyone you know:
Please stand up for our brother in Christ, Phil Robertson, who was fired for sharing his Christian faith with a national audience!
Sincerely,
