That’s 80 years of ideologies that have popped up where no Jesus was allowed among those four groups. Just look at the records as far as murder goes among those four groups.”

Phil Robertson: Feminists decry the world according to Phil. In a video that surfaced from 2009, Robertson advised men at a Sportsmen’s Ministry event in Georgia to do as he did--marry a “woman” no older than 15 or 16! A good woman is "hard to find,” he opined. “Mainly because these boys are waiting until they get to be about 20 years old before they marry 'em,” said Robertson, who wed wife Kay when she was 15. “Look, you wait till they get to be about 20 years old, they only picking that's going to take place is your pocket. You gotta marry these girls when they're 15 or 16, they'll pick your ducks. You need to check with mom and dad about that, of course."
