My "WTF?" of the day, Duck Dynasty edition... [View all]

Just how drunk was Phil Robertson?

Duck Dynasty‘s Phil Robertson: Jesus Existed Because We’re Living in the Year 2016

July 5, 2016 by Hemant Mehta 62 Comments

Over the weekend, Duck Dynasty‘s Phil Robertson spoke at the Western Conservative Summit and gave the audience definitive proof that Jesus was real:

If your calendar is dated of all the human beings who have ever walked on the Earth, and your calendar is dedicated and predicated to just one of ’em, evidently something rather large went down.

Ah. The old “It’s 2016, therefore Jesus” proof. (No one tell Robertson about the Romans.)

And then, somehow, he said something even dumber, blaming LGBT people for the deaths of 160,000 people in the U.S. over the same time period when we were fighting wars overseas.

He also pointed at his facial hair, letting women know that he would never go into a woman’s restroom.
