Let him keep talking. The more "crazy old man on the corner" talk he keeps spouting, the less influence he'll have in real, normal-person circles. Believe it or not, he still has a fair bit of clout with people who are not, I assume, mentally ill, and this kind of thing only alienates the moderates in his constituancy.

Well, yeah, but he would apply that to anyone who holds any religious views at all. Humanity is...most illogical.

I agree with Pat. And the Bible. But you all knew that already. :)

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Waitwaitwait... You agree with Pat? The Pat? The Pat that this article is about?

You beleive that your loving, understanding, caring God sent down a life threatening stroke to destroy a man for offereing some token of freedom and self determination to a dispossessed people?

Either you're joking/being sarcastic, or you're an extremely worrying person.

I believe that God keeps His promises, and in the Bible, there's warnings against those who divide His land.

oh lordy...

God doesn't need land.  That one of the benefits of being Head Honcho.

Robertson is a tool.  Following Pat Robertson is, like voting for Bush, a sign of brain damage.

As my god asked(;)), "what does God need with a Starship?" I ask - what would God need land for? Nor care who used it except for whether all human beings (His creation by the teaching of your own faith) were suffering on it or not?

Anyway, Paddy old boy is nuts. But he's the kind of nuts you can ignore because he is so clearly nuts. No one ('cept Sandwich) takes him seriously.

I don't see how anyone can deny that this was god. How else does a highly overweight man in his 70s suffer a massive stroke?

Pat Robertson is a bigoted, extremist, hypocritical wankpot who deserves nothing more than to be laughed at by a crowd of irate fat cockneys for all eternity.

Pat really hits the nail on the head regarding the Venezuelan president though.

Also I find his view of feminists enlightening: "socialist, anti-family political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians."
