What?
Traditional values are being openly attacked? Puuuhhhlease. If attacking homosexuals is "traditional values" then good riddance.' It used to be "traditional" for races to only marry amongst the same race.
No, traditional values are not being attacked, a station is standing up for gays like they have a right to.
If a worker on a Christian show openly complained about Christians and how Christianity leads to fascism, I would support that station suspending or firing the worker.
Just because one man and one organization are hold bigoted beliefs does not associate them together.
Certainly you have to see the weakness of your argument there. Gays are a small to non-existent percentage of the viewing audience, self-identified christians are not.

your presentation was that phil can get away with his odious behavior by cloaking it in the religiosity of the bible
i offered those other examples to prove your presentation wrong
if the religious basis will not protect him from being found wrong having slaves or stoning someone, it will similarly not protect him from the consequences of saying stupid ****
I meant a person making a statement in favor of homosexuality (which is expressing a moral judgement), not the mere statement that they are gay.
Gays are a small part, gay support is not small it is rather quite large. I am a heterosexual and I support gays and SSM.
Saying you support homosexuality does not mean you oppose heterosexuality.
no, that is done when you bring both groups up and draw an association. Like when someone goes, "hey, look who supports the duck dynasty guy!"
Then why do you bring it up?
So stating an event that is taking place associates them? Or is me just saying it mean im associating them? Because im just stating Westboro is planning a protest in support of the Duck Dynasty Guy? So simply stating that means im associating them together?

Because its relevant to this thread and i read about it.
This is a very specific case of someone being fired for a expressing a religious/moral opinion.
“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 ... 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.”
So if the news media brought this up and stated "Westboro is planning a protest in support of Robertson" is meaning that they are associating the two together? Or are they just reporting an event which is taking place? Hell it seems to me that Westboro is trying to associate itself with Robertson...Yes it does,
No i didnt. I just stated, "hey look a bigoted group is supporting a bigot".and if you were honest you'd admit it's why you brought it up, to tie the two together.
Yeah, yeah, who cares. Are you a Duck Dynasty viewer?
It's not relevant. It's just a few extreme morons that cheer lead anything anti-gay. You could bring it up every time someone disapproves of homosexuality. It means nothing, as you yourself have admitted.

the westboro baptist members - just like you - have come out in support of phil robertson's bigotry against the LBGT community
that seems like a distinction without a difference within the context of your discussion: what is an isn't a moral position
Well obviously A&E doesn't feel that way otherwise dude would have never been pulled.
Also, you can bet A&E highly regrets their decision -the backlash directed at them must be difficult to deal with....
