The Rev. Pat Robertson said Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon is being punished by God for dividing the Land of Israel. Robertson, speaking on the “700 Club” on Thursday, suggested Sharon, who is currently in an induced coma, and former Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, assassinated by an Israeli extremist in 1995, were being treated with enmity by God for dividing Israel. “He was dividing God’s land,” Robertson said. “And I would say, Woe unto any prime minister of Israel who takes a similar course to appease the E.U., the United Nations or the United States of America. God says, This land belongs to me. You better leave it alone.”
"God is already punishing Pat for his sins by making him more stupid."

Please do not attribute what Pat may have said to the Christian faith. As I said in an earlier post, we can't be sure that Pat meant God had struck Sharon with a stroke for dividing Israel.
And even if he did mean it that way, understand that virtually no Christian feels the same way. Christ was (and is) not vindicative.
Zing!
Pat, read the book of Job. All the typical mortal reasons for Jobs's problems and heartaches were ALL WRONG!
Also note this verse:
Isa.55:9
[9] For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Pat, it may very well be that God is in the process of taking him home.
Oh, come on. It's the equivalent of the mobster saying, "Be careful - wouldn't want you have an ACCIDENT...."
Crazy Pat continually tops himself. He is a stone idiot and fraud. Why doesn't he focus on preaching the Gospel to the Israelis, and stay out of the political decisions they make?
Hey Pat, I wonder what God does to so-called preachers who sign off on things like the ChiCom government's forced one-child policy?
Any time.
Amen!
"“He was dividing God’s land,” Robertson said."
The entire planet Earth is "God's land", last I checked, not just the arid, unattractive middle East.
Tragedy doesn't always = punishment.
Read the book of Job!
Isn't it funny how God never could manage to tell Pat the names and addresses of all the persons Pat "sensed" were being healed?
As did I.
But, is he saying what other people are afraid to say out loud?
He's a lunatic. There can be no doubt about it. He has a God Complex.
Pat, do your fellow man a good deed and see if you qualify for this program.

My father always said, "it is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open one's mouth and remove all doubt."
I always wondered where he got that expression, but it is spot on.
what an absolute a-hole. somebody needs to muzzle this clown.
Pat, do your fellow man a good deed and see if you qualify for this program.
