There's a huge difference between that and the large-scale gloom and doom that Robertson has, repeatedly declared he has heard.
Still small voices I tend to believe in. But those who predict wholesale doom -- especially those with with political agendas, whether Pat Robertson or Al Gore -- better have one heck of a good track record, if they're going to duck satire barrage.
Remember, when God sent Moses to Pharaoh, he gave him a few tricks to show off with, as well.
No doubt. Point well taken. I'll reiterate......I'm not here to defend Robertson's prophecy particularly; just the fact that God DOES speak to people...and often.
