The Reverend Pat Robertson says Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's massive stroke could be God's punishment for giving up Israeli territory.

The founder of the Christian Broadcasting Network told viewers of "The 700 Club" that Sharon was "dividing God's land," even though the Bible says doing so invites "God's enmity."

Robertson added, "I would say woe to any prime minister of Israel who takes a similar course."

He noted that former Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin was assassinated.

Robertson said God's message is, "This land belongs to me. You'd better leave it alone."

Naturally, Legacy Media (ABC radio news) is giving this
story precedence over the Iranian leader's explicit
wish that Sharon die.

Pat needs to stop giving gifts to Legacy Media.

At some point God is going to get tired of people speaking for him.

If its obvious then why did you have to point it out?

Hey Pat! The entire world is God's Land, not just a stretch of it from Syria to Egypt! Jesus is the new covenant, thus taking authority over all previous ones. Jesus made the entire world "Holy Land" rather than just Israel. In case you dont get it, shut up!

Thank you, I am sorry for the repost and the anger it seems to cause people

Pat Robertson is God's punishment to someone.

God made covenants with Israel that have nothing to do with Jesus coming, except that He will be king of it someday in the future. I believe Pat (and maybe even I) know a little more of scripture than you.

As usual, Pat did not say this. They have taken snippets and ascribed words to Pat that were not uttered.

This happened last time when Freepers fell for it and they have fallen for it again.

I don't agree with a lot of what Robertson believes but I don't hate him and appreciate some of his work.

Freepers love to hate Pat.

I do not understand all this emotion regrading reposts!!!! It seems some get great pleasure in pointing this out....if it has been already posted pass it up and do not read it and read something else ...... people are not doing this on purpose ....as for me I missed the first time around so thank you for the post.

Giimme a break...'could be'...Rev. Robertson's view of God is really amazing...Old Testament fire and brimstone with plagues and Book of Job pestilence. He can certainly say what he wants, it is just that he is touted on the Left and by the Media for speaking for the entire Right.

This guy needs to shut up. I don't see any difference in Robertson's comments from what Mahmoud Ahmenijad (sp) said about Sharon. Both of these people are on far extremes of the Israel-Palestine problem, and they're the CAUSE of those problems.

I say it a natural consequence of being overweight.
