If Anyone Is Going to Hell it is Pat Robertson!
Thought that was a fun title for this post. Unfortunately Robertson is safe, there is no such place as hell. It’s sad, though, that idiotic statements made by Christian evangelists like Pat Robertson aren’t proof enough to believers that they might be following the wrong type of people.
Robertson is one of the most direct, and venomous morons in evangelical history. He’s no stranger to making despicable statements of biblical proportions, if you’ll pardon the pun. For example, when level-headed citizens of Dover, PA voted their school board out of office for supporting intelligent design (bravo Dover, PA!), Roberts made this comment on his 700-Club broadcast:
“I’d like to say to the good citizens of Dover: if there is a disaster in your area, don’t turn to God — you just rejected Him from your city.”
Most recently, again during a 700-Club broadcast, Roberts commented on the earthquake disaster in Haiti:
“They were under the heel of the French. You know, Napoleon the third, or whatever. And they got together and swore a pact to the devil.”
Now there’s a real genius. If this guy doesn’t sound like a complete idiot to you, you need to have your head examined. Seriously, wake up and smell reality.
