Pat Robertson talked to God again. You may remember such predictions as the end of the world, and the demolition of Orlando, both of which happened right on schedule. Robertson has used his super-duper connections to predict a good year for Bush, the confirmation of Alito, another Supreme Court vacancy, and the beginnings of an Iraq withdrawal. Duh.Not bad, Pat! Lots of nice generic Nostradamic predictions. I ALSO have super-duper connections, and I can now predict continued unsettlement in the Middle East, more scientific discovery, and a great year for rich professional liars who make buttloads of money and pay no taxes.








The saddest thing of all is that people follow him as if he were the envoy of a superior being.

Yes, that is incredibly sad.
Today’s society sees political power as intelligence and undeniable authority, as if the person in power is correct in every action.
Deadly
I sure hope that isn’t true. My generation, the 60′s, proved the corruption and lying of goverment. It is a sad state indeed if all that was lost and people start believing in politicians again just because they believe in the same religion.
Usually politicians are the mirror of the people of their country.
lapo
I wish it weren’t so but I’m sure you are right.
One local news show here did a weeklong series drumming up controversy about the new show “The Book of Daniel” on NBC on Friday night. It featuresa a married, Episcopalean minister with a gay son, an adopted Chinese son, and a daughter who gets caught selling pot in the opener. Father Daniel also regular talks to Jesus in person. His own father is a sour bishop(who is carrying on with the bishop of Father Daniel’s Dioocese) and whose wife has dementia.
Anyhoo, the local polls ran at 79% that the show should not even be aired.
I watched it; it was kinda sweet and funny. I thought, these folks aren’t Christians, they’re Epicopaleans.
Anybody else have any controversy over the show or see it?

OFF TOPIC
Remember what I said about I’d rather lose in regular season than post season play?
Here come the STEELERS!!!
I saw that same comment Roberton made about Ariel Sharon being punished by god for diving his land. The funny thing is Robertson never once slammed President Bush for bombing so-called god’s land. I mean, didn’t all that old testament stuff happen in the Iraq region? If Robertson is a true christian as he claims, Bush would be the first on his hit list, not Sharon.
digital,
All that stuff happened in the Turkey/Armenia region. Which is very close to Iraq, but not quite.
digital:
Actually, as I understand it, Iraq is where Babylon was.
So that might be a scriptural free-pass, in Robertson’s eyes.
Or, for those who follow Revelation, that’d make us the beast.
All contingent on translation/interpretation, of course.
I still think they should have shipped Robertson off to Chevez. Hmmmm. I wonder what they would pay…. Never mind thinking like that could get me thrown in jail.
Does FedEX deliver?
andradol:
That leaves a bizarre after-image in me poor daft skull, it do.
A writhing package w/airholes, muffled exclamations…brrhhh!
I’d not wish that on anyone. Not even him.
Yeh, I was thinking of a Garfield cartoon when he tries to send Odie to Peru. Basically just a package with a tongue and ears protruding and enough stamps to get him halfway round the world. Maybe we can package a few more up with him, how ’bout Falwell.
of course
One only has to listen to his own words:

Mary was a prostitute, her and Joseph were on the run. Both were bums. Lucky they were allowed to sleep in a barn.
If they were not married, Christ was a bastard child anyway. Illegite for sure.
The three con artists who sopposily showed up were merely part of Mary and Joes gang who were nothing more than professional bums of their day. Ok, all religions are nothing more than an elusion of
security. Ok, yes, I want to elaborate more, and will.
We all know the TRUTH.
