PRINCETON BOROUGH - The Rev. Pat Robertson spoke from the lectern at Princeton University last night like it was his pulpit, calling students to stand up for their moral convictions and not be swayed by popular culture.

His hair is all gray now, he had surgery in February and is recovering from prostate cancer, but the evangelist showed no signs of wavering last night when he spoke at the invitation of a student group.

"Vengance is mine.. " So save your wrath for the law, Mr. Low Oil.

"And will you profane Me among My people… killing people who should not die, and keeping people alive who should not live…?" Ezek. 13:19

"He who strikes a man so that he dies shall surely be put to death." Ex.;21:12

"Whoever kills any man shall surely be put to death.... You shall have the same law for the [foreigner] and for one from your own country; for I am the Lord your God." Lev. 24:17-22

Vengance is the Lords, but the law is the law to be upheld by Who??????

While Paul instructs people not to seek their own revenge, but to "give place to wrath." Paul then explains that the proper channel for wrath is the "governing authorities." The government is the "place" for wrath and vengeance:

Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities... For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Rom.;13:1, 3

Godly rulers are a terror to evil doers. Note that God’s two witnesses in Revelation "tormented those who dwell on the earth" (Rev.;11:10).

God through Paul specifically commands earthly governments to execute criminals with the sword:

For [the governing authority] is God’s minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God’s minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil. Rom.;13:4

"He who strikes his father or his mother shall surely be put to death." Ex.;21:15

"He who kidnaps a man... shall surely be put to death." Ex.;21:16

"He who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death." Ex.;21:17

"[If an unborn baby is killed] you shall give life for life." Ex.;21:23

I still don't see the religious excuse to beat up people who do not agree with you.. On the contrary, you should follow the law of your land.

Of course, since you desire to persecute innocent people, I see this argument going nowhere..

Nice bait trick. I have managed not to be thrown off this site by not biting on such tactics. I provided links to my position. You just call names.

PS: You're an evil man, Mr. Low Oil.

Someone who would punish the very people you are supposed to be witnessing to and converting.

That's a travesty and there is still no Biblical justification for promoting Christianity by brute force.

You and the rest of the suckers on this thread have bought, wholesale into a kind of "Christianity" that I had hoped was long dead and gone..

Tell me, how long before we begin burning "witches" and "heretics" Mr. Low Oil?

PSS: TLB, this rests on your head. You promoted it and I hope you are held responsible for what you promoted and convince others of here..

You didn't provide links; apparently you don't know how to. You provided URL's, because you don't have the arguments on your side to make your case that Christian leadership is required to preserve the Constitution.

Make your case, on this thread, or I will assume you don't have one.

This is ridiculous, "Low Oil" (oh, how apt) Is calling you in because he lost a debate to Sinkspur.

He wants you to settle with the "delete" button what he couldn't win with reason on this thread.

It's insulting, he's wasting your time, and sincerely I hope you take note of this when you reply.

Unless Islam decides to amend itself by removing the "hate speech" from the Quo ran, anyone who professes to beleive in the Quo ran will be considered my enemy. I also find it humorous that Muslims refuse to defend their evil religion. As Islam becomes more exposed in the west, the muslim can no longer spew the "religion of Peace" nonsense, they are handcuffed to their myopic, redundant, intolerant rant. {the Quo ran}

Islam and their well facted bloody history is why we are where we are today. Before 911 the only Islam I bothered with was when I went to see Cat Stevens in Delhi NY to speak about Islam and why he become one. I told him there was one God and it wasn't Allah. He didn't listen to me! LOL Anyways the God of the Bible warned of these days!

And why should they?

I am not erasing a damn word from my bible, and I don't care who doesn't like it.

The First Amendment covers both of us.

I read about it here last summer!

A member of the U.S. Civil Rights Commission said in Detroit on Friday he could foresee a scenario in which the public would demand internment camps for ArabAmericans if Arab terrorists strike again in this country.

Anyways we are already detaining people its called Operation Liberty Shield.



US to round up all Muslim and Arab asylum-seekers
By Andrew Gumbel in Los Angeles
19 March 2003

The United States has ordered the detention of all political asylum-seekers from a long list of Arab and Muslim countries, infuriating immigrant advocates who say it violates international human rights law.

The Department of Homeland Security announced the policy shift as part of its tightening of security in anticipation of a war with Iraq, codenamed Operation Liberty Shield. "Asylum applications from nations where al-Qa'ida, al-Qa'ida sympathisers and other terrorist groups are known to have operated will be detained for the duration of their processing period," the department said on Monday night. It described the initiative as temporary, "reasonable and prudent".

Department officials told reporters the order would affect nationals from more than 30 countries, including Iraq and – in contrast to previous government orders requiring immigrants to register with the authorities – such US allies as Jordan, Egypt and Saudi Arabia.

Yeah, that is it. or that I don't have time to debate two people at one time

<a href="URL">Description you can clik on</a>

You provided URL's, because you don't have the arguments on your side to make your case that Christian leadership is required to preserve the Constitution.

I have common sense enough to know that something that has been debated for eons on other threads is not something I want to get in flame war with someone that does not care if they are banned or not from this site. When you start calling me names, I stop assuming there is reasonable debate. I have nothing more to say to you. Assume all you want (but the ass will end with u, because I will not bite the bait).

As I suspected, you can't back up what you said.

Thanks for admitting it.

I did not hit Abuse... Jhoffa, and if you think it was silly, read the link I provided (I did not write it). I have not called you one name nor anyone here anything. All I ask is for the same from others. You are the one BTW...that mentions treating others as you would like to be treated remember! You are the one getting irate and that is after mentioning another freeper for being nice to you in the same manner.

The world deserves to have Pat Roberson and Jessie Jackson just SHUT UP for a while, maybe the next 30 years or so.

Your forgetting Al Sharpton.
