America is a nation divided when it comes to gun control, and people are at odds with one another on how to regulate gun use in the country.

Countless people have already died because some individuals who should not have had access to guns were able to acquire them and carry out devastating plans of mass murder.

But for "Duck Dynasty" star Phil Robertson, the real answer to America's gun problem can be found in a book - the Bible. In a video posted on Facebook, the former reality star pointed at a gun and said, "So I have here an earthly weapon. It's a firearm. I would never want to use that against another man," he said.

Robertson then picked up the Bible and added, "This is also a weapon. It's called a sword - the sword of the spirit. You want to stop murder worldwide? You're focusing on the wrong weapon." He raised the Bible and stressed, " This, this will stop human beings from murdering one another."

People have been pretty divided over Robertson's thoughts. Many individuals scoffed at his suggestion that the Bible is enough to put a halt to the killings and some accused him of being a "religious nut."

"That's hilarious considering the majority of war stricken countries, throughout history, have been at war for generations over religion, 'good books,' and the fanatics that try to use HIS name as a way to manipulate and destroy others," one person wrote.

"Did the lessons from that book and it's religion stop humans from murdering each other during the crusades, or any other point in history?" another questioned. "No, religion has been used too many times as the excuse to commit violence, and murder another human being."

Sarahbeth Caplin, a blogger from Patheos, argued that Robertson's theory is "dismissive" of America's gun problem and it's his reasoning that makes it worse. "At the risk of being painfully obvious, a firearm has one purpose, and that's to kill. If our secular laws don't stop a murder, a Commandment's not going to do it either," she wrote.

On the other hand, Robertson's fans encouraged him to "keep talking it" because he is "so right" about God and the Bible. "His philosophy is real. Whether you believe in God or not. It's about respect and respecting human life or life in general as it is. A weapon does not kill. The mind that controls the weapon can and it's a sad thing to see humanity the way it is," a fan commented.

Another fan weighed in: "He's focusing on the fact that people need to read the good book. The Bible. Read about Jesus and follow His ways don't let evil get inside you. We can all get into a debate about weapons but we need to face the fact that it's not the weapon killing people; it the person behind it."
