re: #182 Political Atheist

Actually a suspension is more like it than an outright dismissal. Look don’t think I’m here to defend Phil, or the show.

My point is there might be a more effective or helpful way to call him out than removing him from the show permanently. Maybe. Reflexively hating on southern conservatives ain’t it. Lots of that out there too.

I don’t think anyone is reflexively hating on Southern conservatives though many do seem to agree with Mr. Robertson’s views on homosexuality as seen with past votes on gay marriage in many Southern states.. Not sure where you get that one. What we are hating on is a fundamentalist way of looking at the world. I look down on Phil’s worldview the same way I do a Islamic fundamentalist who thinks only the Quran can tell us how to live.
