Can someone please provide indubitable evidence of Mr. Robertson's "hatred"?

For starters Robertson agreed with Falwell when he implied that God allowed some Islamic kooks to smash airplanes full of innocent women and children against the giant building, because New York had too many homos, pagans, and feminists.

Just curious as I have been called a "hater" simply for believing in Jesus Christ.

Just believing in Jesus Christ does not make one a "hater".
Claiming to be speaking for Jesus when you (not you, but Falwell and Robertson) spout inflamatory and divisive rhetoric that can only serve to increase hostilities and get more people killed is "hateful" and foolish.

Worth repeating what fools they were on that point.

I think this unfortunate statement of Falwell's had more to do with the emotion of the moment than with any supposed "hatred" of Muslims. Also, I think Falwell later apologized for it.

Hm, so Falwell & Robertson will be at fault for (Gor forbid) any further attacks?

Would you apply the same "logic" against speaking out against Nazis during WWII?

I would imagine that during a war, the offended party is required to offer flowers to the enemy so he won't get mad.

Just for your info...

Quote from transcript of Robertson's Response to President Bush's Comments on Islam:

PAT ROBERTSON: "...We must distinguish between the origin of the religion and those who who adhere to it in the United States, who are indeed a peaceful people. To say the religion of Islam is peaceful, I do not think is accurate. To say that most of the adherents in America to the Islamic religion are peaceful, is absolutely correct. It is just a question of semantics, but I think it is vitally important in our war on terror that semantics be correct."

Jesus spoke inflammatory and divisive rhetoric. He was killed for it.

Funny how everything comes back around.

And yes Jesus spoke out against Pagans, Homosexuals and the establishment religions.

He did not call for them to be killed, He did call for them to be saved.

Jesus loves all people, He does not however accept any sin.
