Pat Robertson Has Heard From God - millions will suffer

[leftyladyfrommo]

In what has become an annual tradition, religious broadcaster Pat Robertson predicted Tuesday that a terrorist attack on the United States would result in "mass killing" late in 2007. Robertson said God told him that major cities and millions of people will be affected by the attack, which could take place after September.

From the Kansas City Star this morning.

On thing is for certain: if Robertson says this came from God you can be sure it didn't. It came from somewhere in his sick, depraved mind.

[YOY]

1. If it does happen (even on a small scale) then he gains more followers, if it doesn't

his followers have the attention/memory spans of gnats.

The asshole makes up shit like this for a reason...

[zanne]

3. If he says it every year....

It's bound to come true sooner or later. Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

[YOY]

5. Amen to that (pun most assuredly intended)

n/t

[annabanana]

2. Isn't there a town in Pennsylvania

that should be groaning under the weight of locusts and drowned in a sea of blood for getting creationism out of the school curriculum?

He predicted that too.

[leftyladyfrommo]

4. Maybe he does drugs!

He probably uses magic mushrooms and then sits down and waits to hear from God.

What an oddball.

[Jackpine Radical]

18. Well, no, I think it's obvious he doesn't do that.

The mushrooms generally provide much more accurate information than Robertson ever seems to get.

[leftyladyfrommo]

32. He soesn't seem to be very accurate does he?

I guess we really have a 50/50 chance of another attack - it will either happen or it won't.

I personally don't think it will happen. But I'm an optimist by nature.

[Hubert Flottz]

6. God is a real party pooper!

Never any good news!

[DoYouEverWonder]

15. The gnostics

have an interesting POV in regards to the 'God' of Abraham.

[Nimrod2005]

7. I hope the good Lord directs ALL his anger at this mother fucker's house!!!

[malaise]

8. As long as Pat is first in line

I'm willing to 'sacrifice'.

[kikiek]

9. His "inside info" for last year was wrong. What an ass' fool.

[AlCzervik]

10. what pisses me off about this story is that it was in my newspaper this morning

the press should stop giving Robertson and his ilk so much real estate in print.

[leftyladyfrommo]

13. It was just a little kind of sidebar in our paper. n/t

[AlCzervik]

14. it was on page 4 in the main section of my paper.

[TheCowsCameHome]

11. I suffer everytime I see this assclown in the news.

[htuttle]

12. Robertson speaks -- Millions bilked out of their pensions

Many have already suffered as a result of Pat's slick sales pitches.

[leftyladyfrommo]

16. You think he is just trying to get people to give up their savings?

Why hold on to your money if we are all going to be destroyed in a terrorist attack?

I'm not usre but I think his whole organization is just going down the tubes. I don't think he is very popular any more - not like he used to be.

[shadowknows69]

17. And it will probably be one of his sick, depraved followers

that causes it now. A statement like this from a religious leader, and I use that term lightly, is akin to incitement. Can we lock Pat up yet?

[pdxmom]

19. For 2006, didn't he predict that we would have...um...weather? 'Nuff

said there.

This guy is a nut bar and it's sad that the MSM would even give it a second of air time.

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

20. A quick Google search reveals the searing accuracy of his previous predictions.

Not.

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. - In another in a series of notable pronouncements, religious broadcaster Pat Robertson says God told him storms and possibly a tsunami will hit America's coastline this year.

On the January 3 edition of Christian Broadcasting Network's The 700 Club, Reverend Pat Robertson, host and Christian Coalition of America founder, made predictions for the New Year based on what he said God told him during a recent prayer retreat. Robertson said that God told him: "I will remove judges from the Supreme Court quickly, and their successors will refuse to sanction the attacks on religious faith." Robertson also said that he "heard it from the Lord" that President Bush will have Social Security and tax reform passed and that Muslims will turn to Jesus Christ.

Meanwhile, in Virginia, Christian Coalition founder Pat Robertson warned residents of Dover, "If there is a disaster in your area, don't turn to God. You just rejected Him from your city. And don't wonder why He hasn't helped you when problems begin, if they begin. I'm not saying they will, but if they do, just remember, you just voted God out of your city. And if that's the case, don't ask for His help, because he might not be there." Later, Robertson issued a statement explaining that "our spiritual actions have consequences. ... God is tolerant and loving, but we can't keep sticking our finger in his eye forever."

26. I think I won't use Pat as my gambling handicapper

I would have lost a ton of money betting on his so-called predictions.

[sinkingfeeling]

21. God told me that Pat Robertson will burn in hell when he dies within the next 3 years.

Now why isn't that on the front page of every newspaper in the USA? Robertson's plans to kill millions is on CNN.com, USA Today and MSNBC's web sites as well. Why?

[Virginia Dare]

22. God's just having a little fun with you again Pat...

you're so gullible. :evilgrin:

[kevinbgoode]

23. Millions have already suffered

as a result of stupidly opening their pocketbooks to help this snake oil salesman remain on the public airwaves.

Only con-servatives are allowed to make such bombastic statements as calling for the assassination of others or exploding a nuclear device over a government institution, or calling for a government in which ONLY wingnut-approved "Christians" are allowed to hold public office.

The rest of us aren't allowed to make such free speech statements about con-servatives, and most certainly not about the religious cults they support.

This country suffers every day that these wingnuts control the public airwaves.

[Solly Mack]

24. and should it happen, arrest Robertson..or they could arrest him

pre-emptively and torture him to find out about this "ticking time bomb"

Just saying....

[Alamom]

25. "I assure you that I am going to be the next president of the US"

My favorite :sarcasm:


1988 prediction by P.R.,

"I assure you that I am going to be the next president of the United States," After trailing George H.W. Bush and Senator Bob Dole in the Republican primaries, Robertson's 1988 presidential campaign ended before the Republican convention. A February 2004 article in Church & State magazine (published by Americans United for Separation of Church and State) noted several Robertson predictions that turned out to be false, including that Russia would invade Israel in 1982, and that there would be a worldwide economic collapse in 1985. The article went on to mention that "In his 1991 book, The New World Order, Robertson predicted that U.S. Sen. Jay Rockefeller would be elected president in 1996."

27. There is only one God and Pat Robertson is his prophet.

Most guys that claim that are usually pushing shopping carts between stints in the rubber room. But, they also live on handouts.

[leftyladyfrommo]

29. Actually, the President of the Mormon Church is the one with the

hotline to God - not Pat Robertson.

[Giant Robot]

28. Someone give Pat his correct meds

It seems he forgot to take them again.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

30. How much money does Robertson want me to send him?

So he can ask God to divert this terrible tragedy.

[dogday]

31. Pat Robertson, stop wasting God's time...

[Bandit]

33. Why

What is God's purpose in telling Robertson this? Is Robertson going to save millions with this dire warning? Why would God tell Robertson such a thing? If God is good then what good is to come from this? Is this meant to terrify Americans? Is Robertson using terroristic tactics? Does God want Americans terrified? Does God no longer want Peace and Godd Will toward Mankind? Why? To what purpose? Or should we never question?

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

34. If Keith Olbermann said the same thing, he'd be hauled off and disappeared.

God is the convenient "Get Out Of Jail Free" card, apparently. MKJ

[cynatnite]

35. That message is about six years too late...

God must've sent it when George stole the 2000 election. Pat just now deciphered it.

[sanskritwarrior]

36. I heard from Satan

he said get a 2nd opinion.

[lpbk2713]

37. Um ... Pat? If god didn't kill Hugo Chavez for you .....

.... what makes you think he will kill 'millions' for you?

[ThsMchneKilsFascists]

38. Millions already have suffered

Including yours truly, hearing yet another load of crap from this asshat.

[FyurFly]

39. Pat has a direct line to "Sky Buddy" n/t

40. Pat Robertson, it's quite enough.
