"Duck Dynasty" patriarch Phil Robertson delivered a bizarre speech in which he created a hypothetical scenario about an atheist being forced to watch his "little atheist daughters" get raped and then having his penis hacked off and shown to him.
Speaking at a Christian event in Florida on Friday, Robertson was apparently trying to "prove" that having no belief in the afterlife and its consequences would make any level of violence acceptable.
“Two guys break into an atheist’s home. He has a little atheist wife and two little atheist daughters," Robertson said in audio from the Vero Beach Prayer Breakfast, obtained by Right Wing Watch. "Two guys break into his home and tie him up in a chair and gag him."
Robertson continued:
"And then they take his two daughters in front of him and rape both of them and then shoot 'em and they take his wife and then decapitate her head off in front of him. And then they can look at him and say, 'Isn't it great that I don’t have to worry about being judged? Isn't it great that there's nothing wrong with this? There's no right or wrong, now is it dude?'
Then you take a sharp knife and take his manhood and hold it in front of him and say, 'Wouldn't it be something if this was something wrong with this? But you’re the one who says there is no God, there’s no right, there’s no wrong, so we’re just having fun. We're sick in the head, have a nice day.'
If it happened to them, they probably would say, 'Something about this just ain't right.'"
Listen to the audio here, which begins with an apparent attack on healthcare.

... humanity would've been extinct before the dawn of theology.
There's a certain amount of moral relativism in all communities, but by and large we're born knowing the basics of right and wrong. Tests on babies who're yet to learn language show they understand the difference between stealing and sharing, for example.

"Well, all modern conventions have disappeared. Thank goodness we have an omniscient omnipresent higher power watching over us to mitigate anti-social, violent behavior!"
19. "im moreso speaking to the fact that anarchy and chaos ensued.." In response to Reply # 14
as a result of our modern laws and structure going down, moreso than it having anythg to do or not to do with God. I tend to believe that human nature in and of itself will do us in before anythg else will...and the occurrence might just happen to be in the name of God which is pretty ironic if u thk about it

16. "Thank you I couldnt articulate my thoughts well" In response to Reply # 15
I was reading that like" yo he is fucked up in the head" Good thing he believes that G-d will punish him for doing something that heinous. ***************************************** https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=de6VnExhelQ
None of the shit he said would ever cross my mind in a million years, god or no god. I wonder what percentage of people don't rape and kill only out of the fear of punishment by God not because they have no desire to do so? That is actually more scary than what he is proposing.

or whatever energy that created the universe would want to hang out with for eternity is someone who only doesn't do horrific things because of fear of future repurcussions, not because you know, they're horrific things.

Killing millions of people for various ridiculous reasons.. SMH... lolz
If someone needs the threats of a "supernatural" being to keep them in line they've got serious issues. If someone needs to not eat pork and make their wife cover herself head to toe with nothing exposed except her eyes when she is in public, they've got serious problems.
26. "This is what happens when you don't know any actual atheist " In response to Reply # 21
