A Perversion of Religion

Classic line from a guy in this article about Pat Robertson, who is happy to say anything, even about those who he stood by like Ariel Sharon, to keep his name in print.

Uber-Zionist Ariel Sharon afflicted with a near fatal stroke as part of God's divine punishment? So Rev Pat would have us believe that God is a Zionist [or at least a supporter of Israel] and Sharon would seek to defy God? [And all the time i though God spread his grace on the US].

If I didn't kinda read it I would never have believed it. [On second thought, considering the source, I would].

I'm all for perversion but this may be TOO perverse.

Rest assured, Rev Pat will say something even less defensible or common sensical in appx 6 months.

for talking to that goyim asshole Pat Robertson.

I know, because He came to me, He said, "I'll spring  you if you do the hit."

An I said, "not a chance, that place is way too fucked up for me.  Get another sucker."

Crap, how the hell did I ever get born in a place where a moron like Pat R has any stature at all??

Can't this guy get caught loving on a pre-op? (My sincere apologies to all the pre-ops for wishing him on you.  You deserve better, much better.) Where's Tammy Faye when you need her?  This is why serious people can't take a concept like God seriously.  It's just utter - what's the word I am searching for here - contemptible horseshit?  Infantile demagoguery?  The prattle of a total ass who likes his Jack Daniels early in the morning and then as often as possible?  

May he end up naked in the Enquirer with Michael Jackson playing horsey on a herd of Palestinian boys.

spewing invective day and night.

Keep up the good work!

he's making more than God.  He's onto something, don't you think?

A daily dose of Jack Daniels could only improve him.

ineffective, and counterproductive.

these are the mildest, yet really, IMO, most damnable.

That message is what religion is all about.

Like this:  I find out you got a traffic ticket, I corner you after church and tell you that's God's revenge for being cheap with the offering last week, and it's a warning that if you don't pony up this week, it'll be jail time next week.  Double it, and we'll see about that ticket.

OF COURSE IT'S ALL BULLSHIT, YA MORON!!!  WHAJA EXPECT??!   Somebody had to tell you we're just social hyenas, preying on the weak-minded?  Sheesh.

a good, God-fearing citizen?

Pat Robertson does not keep his name in print.  Those that respond to him - keep his name in print.

Robertson has an extensive web presence, which is in print, if not on paper.

But generally, Robertson's market does not read.  Smart scumsucker that he is, he broadcasts to them.

But you knew that.  And you also know that's fine, because every time he runs his mouth about some specific political issue, instead of just "send me money or burn in hell" he makes himself his own biggest enemy.

is like Timex -- he takes a lickin' but keeps n tickin.'

The more criticism he receives, the stronger he seems to get.  What gives?  Are his supporters onery and  contrary in addition to being...whatever?

praying for their salvation, are not good Christians.   Well, so we really can't be sure.  Typical Christians, maybe so.  But we should always aspire to something better.

Like me:  I aspire to and pray daily for the Rev. Robertson's salvation and return to the Kingdom of God.  I figure that God will see to it that most of his sheep will come to me, and so I ask daily that the Rev Robertson be redeemed, sort of like turned in for Green Stamps; and that day cannot come too soon to deliver Heaven's son from this vale of tears, so that a slightly larger portion is left to minister in my decaying years.

Let us pray.  Dear God, whosoever art in Heaven, let me abbreviate the formalities and extraneous verbiage and surplusage, to demand an immediate guarantee of the delivery of my brother Pat's share to my fold, within the fortnight.  And I solemnly promise that if my prayer is fulfilled, I will not ask for Jim Dobson's share, or any extraordinary effort like lightning on San Francisco, brimstone on Washington, or the Charger Girls in my budoir, for the next 10 business days.  Hallelujah Amen.

Oh the things I would like to say here.

Doubtless you all can imagine my reaction
to Pat Robertson's latest outrage. I think
someone needs to assassinate this odious
creature, and ship him off to Venezuela
for Hugo Chavez to use as fertilizer for Venezuelan coca, er, uh, I mean cocoa beans.

Oh the things I could say HERE as well.

But, what outrages me all the more, is that there are so many FOOLS out there who believe and support this horribly corrupt and false person.

Reminds me of the FOOLS out there who believe and support another horribly corrupt and false person by the name of George Washington Bush.

I hope you will all take note:

Its essentially the same group of Fools.

about his detractors, "terrorism is a disease of the skin; televangelism is a disease of the heart".

This is not about fighting over the possibility of some raghead sneaking into a container and blowing up 1,000 souls randomly.   It's about manipulating the country over that fear.  It's about the culture of the country; and you should recognize, as Pat has, the political need for entertainment (bread & circuses) and also coercive authority ("miracle mystery authority") whether that is arrived at by faith in hellfire, faith in controlled substances, faith in other abstractions like Science or Law, or by threat of gunfire or other force.

Pat is just a very effective entrepreneur.   Also a lying sack of shit.  So is anybody who says the behavioral maladjustment patterns described in the DSM are organic disorders.
