it can be surprising that a preacher / bible scholar hasn't blown his mind away regarding the Bible.


Why has nobody given Phil a newsflash regarding "Source criticism" regarding the bible?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source_criticism_(biblical_studies)

Or referred him to the "Documentary hypothesis" of all the mythic stories that Phil seems to believe. The first five books of the Bible didn't just happene as it is described in the bible. Scholars know that is foolish.

Phil probably doesn't know that the four gospels that he loves were even written by whom we think they were.

PHil needs a study buddy for his mythic beliefs.

Actually, his problem is that he got a degree from college, from a football scholarship. It isn't that he didn't attend school, it was that the only thing he learned, was that there were others available to do his learning for him.

One can only speculate how he would have done if he wasn't a jock, so third grade may have been the last grade he completed on his own intellectual merit.

Phil also has an MA in education & a teaching credential. This creep used to be a high school English teacher.

I'm fucking glad he got out of teaching, because kids do not need a stupid ignorant fuckhead like him as a teacher & a role model.

I have always been somewhat of a sportsman...hunter gatherer type. I have fly fished and hunted for meat to put on the table most of my life. BUt, IMHO, most modern day hunting is far removed from original intent.

Duck Dynasty is just another chapter in a sporting world gone sick.....all about money.

It sadens me to see my fellow sportsman behave the way they do sometimes. I think there are many of us who do not approach the outdoors in this way.

I guess he is a tad tamer than Ted Nugent though. Ted Nugent is the worst thing gun owners and hunters ever had on their side and the sooner they dump people like this, the better for their liberties.

You don't know too many preachers. Knowledge of the bible is not a requirement to the job. In fact, it's preferable if you are a bit ignorant of some of its more interesting background. That way you can misquote, and deviate from it to your hearts content.

BTW, I thought Phil was a preacher himself at one time. I could be wrong, but I think that is something I heard about him.

Phil can read? Wow! Could have fooled me. He is allergic to shaving and taking a bath. I thought he was illiterate too. He acts like it.
