The image above sorta gives one view of the 2013 Christmas Season. After an entire day of coverage on television yesterday of the Phil Robertson saga, the Obamacare debacle, NSA wiretaps, frightening Benghazi revelations, Iran’s Nuclear weapons program, and the sheer, unadulterated, panic in Washington as they realize the American public may have come out of their collective coma, and see what is being done to them, I would like to offer some suggestions for your Christmas list and New Year’s resolutions!
Demand that your Cable Company drop A&E or block it on your Dish or Direct TV Box.
Cancel plans for vacations to Disney World or the California Magic Kingdom (Disney is a major stock holder in A&E), and be sure to tell them why you’re canceling. Just for the record, Disney has made previous major stands for the LGBT community, and bashed the Baptist church for their scripture based views. But hey, have a Magical Day!
Buy Duck Commander Duck Calls as gifts for everyone on your Christmas list, no matter whether thy hunt or not. Throw in a poster or coffee mug from Duck Dynasty too! Go by Walmart and clean them out of Duck Dynasty merchandise, trust me you can double your money!
Buy and wear a Duck Dynasty hat or T-Shirt. Tell everyone who asks that you are standing with Phil and his family!
Write President Obama and demand he instruct the IRS to harass A&E with audits, delaying applications, and denial of tax status requests. * (never mind, that’s ridiculous, that would be illegal! Our President would never do a thing like that! What was I thinking, targeting groups someone doesn’t agree with, never mind???!!!)
Go to local merchants who hire gay and lesbian people and demand they release them from employment because you find their beliefs repugnant. * (Once again that is ridiculous, I mean would ESPN let someone go for saying a quarterback was being propped up in the press because he was black??!! No wait a minute, they did do that!! O.K., would a company fire a guy because he said he was Pro Life!!! No wait a minute that just happened, saw it on Fox News this morning. This is confusing? Do some research and see if you can find any example of someone being fired from their job because they were; Pro Abortion, Pro LGBT, a member of the Communist party, or anti Israel. Come to think of it is it o.k. slander a Christian, or a Church?)
When Duck Dynasty returns to the air, on another network, set your DVR to tape every episode, turn all your TVs to that channel for each broadcast to make sure the ratings sky rocket! Help us make A&E look like the idiots they are for ever firing the first shot in this culture war!
Build a live manger scene in the back of your pick up truck or better yet a flat bed trailer and pull it all over town parking it, legally, with a plugged meter in front of every government building in your region! One hour per site. See how long it takes for the ACLU to show up. * (You’ve lost it young man, what are you thinking, honoring Christ at Christmas…..)
Donate toys and food to a local church or shelter, in the name of Phil Robertson.
Donate money to any organization that is actively standing up for the legal rights of Christians.
Study the voting records of all your Senators and Representatives, state legislature members and the Governor of your state, and in the next election reward them for their stands, or send them packing if they do not represent your interests and beliefs.
Please know that I have many gay friends, and I love them with Christ’s love, I do not judge them. As Phil said that is God’s job, not mine. According to the teachings of my faith they are living in sin, but then I’m a sinner as well. I have and continue to ask for God’s forgiveness for my sins, what others do is their decision, but my life is about encouraging others to get right with God.
In the spirit of Christmas I am suggesting and offering a truce with those who’s views I oppose and who oppose my views. I think the Liberal, Progressive groups have one thing exactly right, let us be tolerant, and non judgmental of each other’s differences. You’re right, I’m fully in, but in fairness, you start first…….
………and for a little Christmas cheer enjoy the video below!

IMPORTANT NOTE: It has been brought to my attention that products with the tag line Duck Dynasty are actaully benefitting A&E, Duck Commander products directly benefit the Robertsons! Just thought you might want to know!!!
Blessings,
the pilgrim
