The bizarre part of all this to me is the fact that if Phil were a gay man lashing out about hetero couples committing adultery (which he did call out as well in the same article) not a single word would have been said.

The fact we live in a country founded on Religious Freedom...yet the people who are most often persecuted are because they state their religious viewpoint.. tells you a lot.

I also think the logic is flawed. You look at the backlash across the country and this decision by A&E has spurned exponentially more angst and hatred toward gays from the lunatic fringe than if they simply would have had A&E issue a statement saying his views do not reflect theirs and let it be and apologizing to any it offended.

I have no reason to watch A&E aside from that show... if it goes off I will not watch A&E...if it moves to a different channel I will not watch A&E but will watch what ever channel picks them up.
