The problem is this, the Robertson's are a Christian Bible believing family. They do not hide this on the show or in their personal lives. Every single episode ends with some form of prayer ( which I am sure that folks like Bill Maher ) find offensive or ridiculous. Would it be rational if there was an outcry from the atheist community with them arguing that Duck Dynasty is offensive to them and they demand an apology or the show should be canceled because the Robertson clan believes those who do not accept Jesus or believe in God will go to hell? Phil did not express any of these beliefs on the show nor did he promote any kind of anti-gay agenda in any episode. He conducted an interview with a magazine and stated his own personal beliefs ( guaranteed by the Constitution and Bill of Rights . If he gets fired i am most certain that the Robertson family will do just fine with out A&E...in fact, if they took the low road like the LGBT community and fussed enough, they might actually have a civil law suit for discrimination on religious grounds.
