Fundy's like to put Faith in Jesus above all, but the Bible says that Love is greater than faith. So Pat Robertson better find love in his heart for gays and sinners or he may have a harder time making it to heaven than say a gay person or even an Atheist who loves deeply. I would suggest to Pat Robertson that to Love is to express God in it's purest form regardless of how strong your faith is. If you love just for the sake of loving without expecting a reward from God then in my opinion that is more pure than than loving out of fear. I think this is what Jesus taught but I think it's a little too abstract for most fundamentalist Christians.
Paul said in Cor. xiii Love is greater than faith and how you live your life and if you love your fellow man is more important than if you actually believe Jesus to be God. As he said:
"Though I spake with tongues of men and of angels, and have not Love, I am become as a sounding brass, or tinkling cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all Faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not Love, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not Love, it profiteth me nothing...."
