‘Duck Dynasty’ Family: ‘We Cannot Imagine The Show Going Forward Without’ Phil Robertson....

WEST MONROE, La. (CBS Houston) - The stars of “Duck Dynasty” are now in discussions with A&E trying to determine if there will be a future for the hit show.

The Robertsons released a statement Thursday thanking fans for their support and prayers, but stated that they can’t have a show without the patriarch of the family, Phil Robertson, who was suspended indefinitely from the show over saying homosexuality is illogical in a GQ article.

“We are disappointed that Phil has been placed on hiatus for expressing his faith, which is his constitutionally protected right,” the statement read. “We have had a successful working relationship with A&E but, as a family, we cannot imagine the show going forward without our patriarch at the helm. We are in discussions with A&E to see what that means for the future of ‘Duck Dynasty.’”

The statement also noted that they are a family that is “rooted in our faith in God and our belief that the Bible is His word” and that Robertson is a “Godly man.”

“While some of Phil’s unfiltered comments to the reporter were coarse, his beliefs are grounded in the teachings of the Bible,” the statement read. “Phil is a Godly man who follows what the Bible says are the greatest commandments: ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart’ and ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ Phil would never incite or encourage hate.”

Two self-bumps Sarge? It's just shocking to me that such words would fly from the mouth of a backwoods Louisiana bird killer.
