Ugh, my FB feed is exploding this morning over the Duck Dynasty thing. It’s a knock down drag out between conservatives who love the show and more center/liberal types who support A&E’s move.

I would like to make a couple of points about this.

1. A&E is NOT the U.S. Government. There is NO FREE SPEECH issue here whatsoever. Robertson is free to say whatever he wants, A&E is under no obligation to give him a permanent platform for those comments.

2. This is NOT “Christian persecution”. Robertson is not being arrested, tortured or otherwise being prohibited from following his religious beliefs.

3. I’m not sure I’d call what Robertson did “preaching”, since in my opinion Preaching is intended to bring people TO God, not drive them away.
