What more can really be said about the “tolerant” left’s intolerance of mainstream Christian beliefs? The firestorm over Duck Dynasty’s Phil Robertson’s homosexuality comments is just the latest insult. Saying that homosexuality is a sin rests within Christianity’s mainstream orthodoxy of religious teaching and is not “hateful” or “hate speech”. (As a side note, thinking people understand the freaks at Westboro Baptist Church are NOT within Christianity’s mainstream orthodoxy.)

We’ve all heard the phrase “Freedom to worship as we please.” It’s part of liberty, a fundamental birthright, we as Americans are suppose to enjoy. And certainly while some folks, gay and straight, might not agree with Phil Robertson’s views on homosexuality, Robertson’s position was hardly a surprise to the feckless A&E. Their aggressive position on this seems to be based purely on pressure from the radicalized gay lobby. Frankly, anyone not living under a rock for the past few years has known that social conservatism and religion have been Duck Dynasty’s theme since the very popular show’s beginning. When Phil Robertson gave that now famous interview to GQ, the door for the radicalized gay lobby opened, and they went into high gear with their bullying and bigoted tactics.

Personally, I don’t care who you sleep with; “consenting adults” works for me. I don’t need or want more info, thanks. But for the radicalized gay lobby? That attitude doesn’t seem to be enough for them. They have a profound need to “feel accepted” by everyone, everywhere, doing everything. The radicalized gay lobby also feels the great need to persecute anyone who dares to disagree publicly with them. They want to punish folks, beat them into silence, destroy their livelihood — all in the name of “acceptance”. It seems to me that the radicalized gay lobby will NEVER stop doing these things and on THAT point, I care. A lot.

So a message from me to the the radicalized, brown-shirt wearing gay bigots and bullies:

We live in a free society with free speech and free religion. We still love and practice freedom here in America, in spite of Barack Obama. If someone disagrees with something someone else says or believes, they can certainly feel free to disagree with them. They can refuse to do business with them. They can threaten boycotts (which rarely work anymore, by the way) all they want. But – now pay attention, because this is important – what is NOT compatible with the principles of freedom is using official, or even semi-official, power to punish someone. You can’t use the government in retribution against someone who offended you (yes, that pesky 1st amendment thing!). You also can’t seek to destroy their employment or ability to live freely for saying or believing something with which you disagree. You should not be able to harass or destroy them for “displeasing” you or your agenda. Those things are simply not compatible with a genuinely free society. In fact, it’s the purest form of bigotry and bullying.

Yeah, I’m looking at you, gay lobby.

Doing these things undermines liberty, and liberty must be in place for a free society to exist. It’s just not that hard to understand, really, even for you. Watching you over the years, and especially during this Phil Robertson issue, I can only believe you aren’t interested freedom and liberty whatsoever. It doesn’t fit your agenda, does it? You care only about yourself. Frankly, you are an enemy of liberty.

Some say we’re doomed. Mark Steyn definitely says it best in my opinion: “we’re living in an age of intolerance, a pansified culture going nowhere”. Is the answer to getting along with a radicalized, bullying, bigoted gay lobby, “be nice, or else”? Must we embrace a cultural imperialism of any kind? Absolutely not! Phil Robertson has a master’s degree, was a college football star, is a man with a solid, steadfast faith, was an inventor and an entrepreneur, started his own business, became a millionaire and has a family who adores him. This country needs more Phil Robertsons and fewer of Obama’s moronic pajama boys.

And bullies? We all know how to deal with a bully… kick them in their gonads, hard. Repeat.
