We all have crosses to bear, Pat is one of ours. Such is life.

The first time I saw this guy on TV, I initially thought he was some bizarre Christian gay porn actor. But no, he's just a money-grubber.

I think it must be what's in the drinking water at Yale Law. Before his conversion he drank scotch, lived in NYC, and supported Adlai Stevenson. I think he needs a "shot" to help him focus better on scriptural texts. After all, his favorite miracle was the wedding feast at Cana where water was turned to wine and all imbibed. At least on that text he should be a fundamentalist!

He's basically a good guy. I wouldn't have said what he said. And I think the idea is pretty far out there. But he has a right to say it and it doesn't change two things: 1) he's a friend of Israel, 2) he has a biblical point of view.

I dunno, but I do a few things:

1. As people get older, they get kookier (Klansman Byrd, for example).

2. When Louis Farakahhn (spelling?) says something equally idiotic, the LameStream Press ignores it.

3. No one I know considers Pat Robertson to be even a minor player in the conservative movement anymore.

4. Someone in Pat's family or organization ought to set him aside and give him an earful. A dying man needn't be spoken about in such terms. The evangelical community I know supports Israel in a big way.

5. Some of the criticism Pat Robertson has of Ariel Sharon is also voiced by many extremely conservative Jews--they also disagree with the dismantling of the settlements.

In a loony sort of way Pat is right,Anyone involved
in changing or violating the original borders is either dead or will die. True they would have died anyway
but everyone loves hearing about ancient curses, and
how they affect your heart health!

Even if it's true, I mean, it's completely inappropriate to say it now. It's almost as bad as what Iran's president said today!

Has MTV ever done a Celebrity Deathmatch pitting Pat Robertson against Jerry Falwell, where instead of physical blows they try to kill each other with lightning bolts of stupidity? Could be just as funny as the Three Tenors vs. the Three Stooges.

Old Media will use Robertson's idocy to cast aspersions on all people of faith. It's time to put PR out of business. He's not helping the cause, his or ours.

Pat Robertson might be onto something. At any rate, my prayers are with Ariel Sharon.
