VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. -- In what has become an annual tradition of prognostications, religious broadcaster Pat Robertson said Tuesday God has told him that a terrorist attack on the United States would result in "mass killing" late in 2007.
"I'm not necessarily saying it's going to be nuclear," he said during his news-and-talk television show "The 700 Club" on the Christian Broadcasting Network. "The Lord didn't say nuclear. But I do believe it will be something like that."
Robertson said God told him during a recent prayer retreat that major cities and possibly millions of people will be affected by the attack, which should take place sometime after September.
Robertson said God also told him that the U.S. only feigns friendship with Israel and that U.S. policies are pushing Israel toward "national suicide."
Robertson suggested in January 2006 that God punished then-Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon with a stroke for ceding Israeli-controlled land to the Palestinians.
The broadcaster predicted in January 2004 that President Bush would easily win re-election. Bush won 51 percent of the vote that fall, beating Democratic Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts.
In 2005, Robertson predicted that Bush would have victory after victory in his second term. He said Social Security reform proposals would be approved and Bush would nominate conservative judges to federal courts.
Lawmakers confirmed Bush's 2005 nominations of John Roberts and Samuel Alito to the Supreme Court. But the president's Social Security initiative was stalled.
"I have a relatively good track record," he said. "Sometimes I miss."
In May, Robertson said God told him that storms and possibly a tsunami were to crash into America's coastline in 2006. Even though the U.S. was not hit with a tsunami, Robertson on Tuesday cited last spring's heavy rains and flooding in New England as partly fulfilling the prediction.
Is this accurate? This makes Christian fundamentalists look as though they are insane (and no, Christian fundamentalists are not insane--to any atheist freepers or others who might think otherwise).
The nut.
If the attack never happens, then God is a liar according to Robertson.
Robertson != all fundamentalists
"...but with the help of my power shake, your family will be able to withstand nuclear winds of up to 500 miles per hour! Order now!"
"Sometimes I miss."
True prophets never miss.
Makes me wonder who or what IS talking to Robertson.
Was Isaiah a true prophet?
Eventually, he will be right.
I'll go further than the rest of you...things like this make me question whether Pat even believes in God at all. If you were a God-fearing person, I'd think you'd be a little more reluctant to tell bald-faced lies about God speaking to you like this.
I'm not too sure I'd believe anything from a Southern Baptist minister who just happens to own race horses and claims he leg-pressed nearly 25% more weight than the world record.
Maybe that's why Pat said something about God telling him to take LSU against the spread.
Sounds like this dude is more than ready for the old folks' home.
Then that must not really be God's voice you're hearing Pat.
I'll find out shortly. I have a call into Miss Cleo.
[I hope she answers soon. This being on hold is getting expensive, even at just $3.99 per minute. But we need to know for sure.]
this is the same moron who said God told him to run for president and then he lost
