Keep the Duggars on TLC

It is completely unacceptable that we live in a world where people are at risk of loosing their jobs based on their beliefs. The teachings of Christianity do not support homosexuality. Why should someone be punished for following their religion? This is getting to the point where it is almost a modern day persecution of Christians, however, instead of killing them, now their jobs are being threatened, their beliefs are being mocked and everything they say and believe is discredited. This is wrong on so many levels and it needs to stop. More credit to anyone that stands up and maintains their position against such adversity.

Let's reason this out between the two sides. Legalistically, if you believe you gay and you act that belief out in the workplace by voicing it, displaying pictures etc., and were fired, this would be discrimination. If you believe homesexuality is not cindoned by God and you voice that, take down pictures etc., and were fired, this would be discrimination. TLC, in my opinion would be acting in a discrimination if they 'fired' the Duggars. We should respect and love one another, both sides. This is called, 'Taking the High Road'. No matter if we disagree. We should never retaliate and try to get someone fired just because we don't like what they say. That is called bullying and discriminating behavior. Having our own opinions, thoughts and beliefs are what sets us apart from animals and should be celebrated! : )

http://www.examiner.com/article/evidence-of-god-our-government-is-carved-stone Everyone needs to understand what our country stands for. God is in our government and our faith in him is what built it. Look at everyone dollar....IN GOD WE TRUST! There is no separation. It's in our pledge! The few try to push down what the many believe. The many need to start standing up!

I agree with the Duggars, that they can choose what goes on their feed, and they can believe in whatever system they want to, just like anyone else. The people who don't like their show don't have to watch it. There are plenty of shows that offend me on tv these days. That doesn't mean I go trying to get them kicked off. No, I watch the shows that don't offend me, like 19 Kids and Counting.

Freedom of speech freedom of religion!!!!!!!other than the fact it is a sin for a man to be with a man or woman to be with a woman, why is it gay people can flaunt their believes and rights in everyone's face and voice loudly and with celebration there news of coming out of the closet, but anyone who is against it better not even let the thought cross their mind let alone say something. Really!!!!!!!!!!! And this is fair are correct how?

I am trying to sign your petition but it isn't working for me. But you have my support!!!

This is crazy! The LGBT thinks they can attack people just because they do not agree with their lifestyle. So for those of us who do not agree with the style should we petition to have Will and Grace banned from TV or any other show I don't agree with. If Christians petition for every show we didn't agree with there wouldn't be a need for TV. We need more wholesome shows like the Duggars. Just turn the channel if you don't like them. Also I delete a lot of things off my facebook page it's their page not ypurs. Another thing how many states did the people citizens vote against gay marriage? I know in my state we voted no, but it has been approved by the Federal goverment. Stop throwing it on our faces. Most of the signatures aren't even from gay people they are from people who just don't like the show. I for one love the show !!! LTD NEEDS TO REMEMBER THEY WILL LOOSE MORE VIEWERS BY REMEMBER THEy SHOW

Lou, the Problem with the Gays and such and LBGT, is that WHEN THEY DONT GET THEIR WAY THEY ARE SUE HAPPY.. they cant just leave an issue alone, Christians dont force anything on anyone, we spread a message of Jesus Love and Salvation THROUGH Him and how to live a Christian LIFE... look ast schools and the laws that are out there now since the 60s... NO BIBLES or school Prayer No real assembly No teacher help on an issue a kid may have about the bible and a scripture... IF THEY RESPOND or what have you THAT TEACHER IS FIRED!!!! dont you get it, you take Christ and Christain stuff and living out of schools and life etc and look at what we are left with NOW!!!! ISLAM BEING PRESSED INTO SCHOOLS and its happening all over the USA and other related stuff happens

It's too bad they have to lie about WHY people are petitioning to shut the show down in order to get names in their defense. Thats politics, not Christianity.

Tell me who is more intolerant...the family who does nothing but spread Jesus' love over national television...or the activist who lets nothing they disagree with go without demonization...

1) By denying LGBT the privilege to marry, their rights are not being denied. It is also not discriminatory because the definition of marriage is inherently between a man and woman. I can claim that I am being discriminated against by being disallowed membership with a woman's basketball team, but the membership is inherently exclusive to woman by definition. Civil unions were created if LGBT wish to express commitment in a legal manner. 2. If we are going to change the definition of marriage to appease a certain subsection of the population, how can you possibly draw the line beyond LGBT? Suppose a brother and sister, or a parent and child are engaged in incestual relations. They are both adults, and both consent to the relationship. If they wish to get married, how can we deny them that right if we already changed the definition of marriage to fit the LGBT agenda. Or what if a man was engaged in a relation with 10 different woman and they all wished to be married to each other. Again, how can we limit the number of parties in a marriage when its definition has already been subject to change. 3)The Duggars do not express their opinion on homosexuality on their show. Their personal beliefs and religion are protected under the first amendment. If somebody does not like the viewpoints of the people on the show, simply tune out. Nobody's forcing you to watch their show at gunpoint. The LGBT groups are the actual party being hateful, bigoted, and discriminatory in this particular situation. They disagree with what the Duggars believe, and are trying to shut out their voice, as well as hurt them financially and destroy their livelyhood. That is not very American if you ask me.

No surprise here. They want to talk how Christians hate the gay community, which is not true. Just because you don't believe in a lifestyle that God says is wrong does not make you a hater. But hate for the Christians is truly blatant from the gay community. I don't agree with the gay lifestyle, but I don't hate gay people. I have family members who are gay and I love them!! Do I think it's right. No I don't per the Bible. Do I think God smiles on it. No I don't. But does God still love you, Yes he does. I love also love the Duggar family and think they have just as much right to speak their beliefs as anyone else. Christians being bashed for their beliefs is far worse these days than gays being bashed. But...then...the Bible said this would happen.....And the Bible is never wrong. So, there you go. I support the Duggar family and their right to their beliefs!! Nuff said.

I try to keep my kids from homes that show R-rated movies, homes that have guns accessible, homes where family members smoke pot. Do I HATE those parents? Absolutely not. I don't want my kids spending any time near gay or transgender people. Do I HATE them? Absolutely not. They are just an influence I strongly avoid.

I SAY WE START A PETITION TO GET RID OF THE WHOLE CHANNEL DEDICATED TI NOTHING BUT GAY LIFESTYLE???? How about that?!?! I would rather have families like the duggars on TV 10 times more than I want gays on my tv!!!

I love the Duggars! I love everything they do and what they believe in. In the world today, you have to stand up for what you believe in and that's what they've done. If you watch the show, then you'd know. Keep the Duggars. No one else could fill their spot.

She didn't say that transgenders were pedophiles but don't be surprised when a pedophile gets caught saying they are transgender to be able to get a child.

It is sad how our society is trending more towards a social group that is striving to achieve dominance even in the shows we watch. The country was founded on the need for religious freedom. Just as the LGBT groups have their freedoms, Christians should have theirs. How would they feel if Christians took off all of their shows that had beliefs that didn't align with their own? That would be almost every show that airs. This is a family friendly show. It is one of the only ones left that doesn't air nudity, cursing, and other acts that children cannot watch or Christians don't care to watch. If we are not careful and do not speak up for our rights, we will find the Christian faith is facing a genocide in America, the very faith the men who founded it sought to preserve and died for.

Judge not lest ye be judged Duggars. The Duggars have no right to judge how God made others. I am disgusted by the bigotry of the Duggars and they use the bible to justify it. Love is Love. The Duggars have disappointed me greatly. They should pray to God to change their wicked ways.

I swear the LGBT thought process is just like ISIS. If you don't believe and think the way we do, we will censor and punish you in anyway we can. Give it a break LBGT. Your extremist actions are hurting your cause more than helping.

TOTALLY AGREE WITH THE DUGGARS..THE LGBT KICKS AND SCREAMS AND HAS A FEW MONTHLY TEMPER TANTRUMS , AND THEY KEEP TRYING TO SHOVE GAYDOM, HOMOSEXUALITY DOWN OR FRICKIN THROATS..THEY SEEM TO THINK THE LOUDERTHEY SCREAM THE MORE THEY SHOVE..WELL...I HATE TO BE THE ONE TO INFORM THEM THAT JUST BECAUSE ALOT OF PEOPLE ARE GAY, AND LOTS ARE DOING IT, THAT DOESNT EVER, NOT NOW OR IN ANY FUTURE TIME, EVER MAKE IT RIGHT..PERIOD..NO MATTER HOW LOUD OR LONG THEIR TANTRUM LASTS, THAT WILL NEVER, AS IN EVER, CHANGE..SURPRISE !!!
