Pat Robertson: Crack In Washington Monument A Sign From God
Source: Huffington Post

Televangelist Pat Robertson suggested Wednesday that cracks in the Washington Monument caused by the August 23 earthquake could be a sign from God, and the natural disaster “means that we’re closer to the coming of the Lord.”

To explain the rare east coast quake, Robertson pointed to the Biblical prophecy of the end of the world, which claims there could be potential devastation from natural disasters leading up to Jesus' return to Earth.

I'd say it was a sign. A sign that they have broken Washington. The next one will be that Wall Street's a swamp.

1. maybe it's more of a sign that it hasn't been designed with earthquakes in mind.

6. And the damage to National Cathedral?
Could that be a sign from the Devil?

And could the epicenter in Virginia be a sign of where the evil resides? ;-)

8. Which means that pat should start repenting for all of his lies thus far.
I think he should do it in the privacy of his own home and stay out of public view until Jebus comes to get him.

EVERYTHING is a sign the "THE LORD" is about to make a comeback.
You know how I know he's due for a comeback?

I'd be less concerned with a few cracks in a monument then the Day of Judgment you're in for, Pat. If there is a a Judgmental God, you're screwed.

30. for pat, "god" is a magic word that turns ANY news story into a news story about pat

i suppose there might actually be a human interest story, if pat were dementedly roaming the country, explaining the secret messages from heaven revealed by the various cracks in our buildings

but he's not -- he's only interested in THIS particular crack because IT'S IN THE NEWS! which means that PAT CAN BE IN THE NEWS TOO! simply by uttering his magic word in earshot of some lazyass reporter with empty column space to fill and a deadline

43. These clowns, Robertson, Hagee, Hinn,
The Crouches, Creflo Dollar (there's a name for ya), Duplantis, Parsley, Meyer, Hickey and a bunch of others are absolute masters at exploiting the fearful and ignorant thumpers. Anybody remember Jim and Tammy Faye? They started the "Praise the Lord" network.

47. At The Last Meeting Of The 700 Club
I introduced a resolution calling for the beautification of Pat Robertson. Have you all seen what has become of his face lately? I mean all of those red splotches and all? I think maybe the J-man has smitten him with something that looks contagious, as a punishment for squandering his IQ.

48. We should start taxing tele-evangelists and the electronic churches
To see if they want to pay to pray on teevee so much then.
