I am fine with you agreeing with me, disagreeing with me, etc. But please keep it civil when directing comments at me and your fellow commenters. Thank you.

    Fred Phelps and Pat Robertson and their followers are to Christianity as Al Quaida and the Taliban are to Islam. Extremism in anything is bad for humanity.

    Thank you. Thanks for trying to be Christlike, and for having the courage to take a public stand against those who claim the name of Christ and yet behave in such a hateful, unChrist-like manner.

    westboro is indeed an abomination,but when you look in the bible it clearly states things about homosexuality.This is why we athiests,at least myself,cant stand religion in general.While I appreciate your candor,its unfortunate other christians dont see it the way you do.

  • kevlonk

    I am an atheist, and I approve of this vid.

  • acravatt

    The Bible says that you will know them by their fruits. Guess this shows that Pat Robertson is lacking in the fruits of the spirit.
    Another favorite of mine is…
    “Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.”
    A lot of churches seem to forget that they are suppose to follow Jesus and not just someone wearing a suit standing in the front of the room.
    Now I’m starting to get “Preachie” LOL.
    PEACE!

    Shane Watson, I appreciate you. People like you give Christianity a chance of staying pure and uncorrupted. Its people like you who give me some fleeting hope that Christianity is indeed a serious, respectable religion. To be honest, there are tons of people such as Pat Robertson that make Christianity seem like a complete joke and utter waste of time. Why? Because they are hypocrites. Thanks again for your well chosen words.

    @Steelcoremasher Did you hear me question the word of God in the Bible? No. You heard me question the words of Pat Robertson, a human being who chose his words poorly. Do your research. Haiti is 80% Roman Catholic. So, as far as “picking and choosing,” it isn’t me picking and choosing verses (as you didn’t hear me disagree with anything in the Bible). It’s folks such as yourself and Pat picking and choosing places to point the finger at. America is just as bad. Open your eyes.

  • Steelcoremasher

    Pat Robertson’s comment offensive? The bible clearly says the same thing in Dt.18:10 Let no one be found amoung you who sacrifices his son or daughter in the fire,who interprets omens,engages in witchcraft,or casts spells. Anyone who does these things is DETESTABLE to the LORD, and because of these DETESTABLE practices the LORD your GOD will drive out those NATIONS before you. The national religion in Haiti is VOODOO and its black magic a form of witchcraft. So you pick and choose verses?

  • vivalafiaga

    my friend…thank you for proving that not all religious people are epic douche bags

  • SandySummers

    Silver Ladder: Thanks for being a voice in the wilderness.

    @TheArkansashunter What does your verse have to do w/the earthquake? Your verse is so wide, it could apply to anyone’s comment that you disagree with. I can’t imagine Christ inflicting pain on innocent animals, Arkansas Hunter.

  • batchplz1

    I would take it a step further. Pat Robertson is an infiltrader in the body of christ. Sent to discredit Jesus and try to kill him in the hearts and minds of people. This man is not a prophet or physic healer. He is a bullshit artist and slave owner. I hope he gets his.

  • TheArkansashunter

    That’s is how many people percieve it, on what Pat said about Haiti. Haiti will not be the only place that sees these kinds of natural disasters or destruction. The people of this world, and I will agree many Christians also, have turned their back on God. When I say judgment I’m not talking of judgment day but the destruction of the wicked before the return of Christ. Such as Sodom and Gomorrah or the old world before the flood.

  • silverladderdotcom

    @TheArkansashunter – I know the Bible. I’ve spent over 30 years studying it and being taught by those who have studied far longer have have far deeper understandings. Yes, the *whole* world will be judged by God. The whole world. Not just Haiti. Not just who people like Pat Robertson pick and choose as worthy of being judged. I fail to see where your comment or the verse you cited contradict my statements in the video whatsoever. Pat acted as if Haiti was somehow a monopoly of sin. Wrong

  • TheArkansashunter

    The whole entire world will be judged by God.

    Matthew 24:21
    For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

    If you are a Christian learn and KNOW the Holy Bible.

    So, I just want to know when did the people in Chile made a pack with the devil…..jackass and when an earthquake happens in cali (or anywhere in the usa) I want to know when the usa made a pack with satanbecause I don’t remember making a pack with pat and I mean, if u r honest, that man is the devil…pat comes in many forms and he’s been around since the dawn of time, spreading his evil vile seed and I know the people in Haiti didn’t make a pack with him

  • Gnatsirt

    Go man! I fell the same!

  • JRock005

    So what does Pat think about Chile?

  • nmac121

    Amen brother. God bless you and may he strengthen you so that you may provide clarity to those who are in need of it.

    To quote John Chapter 8 Verse 32: Then you shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.

  • nmac121

    Glad I came upon this video. If there are any Christians watching this, people like Pat Robertson will inevitably be a part of our society. Now for the rest of the Christian population it is our duty and calling to show the world who Jesus Christ is. I find it terribly frustrating that atheists are able to rip apart people like Pat who unfortunately gets a ridiculous amount of media attention. This guy does not speak on behalf of Christians period. Only Gods love can overcome this madness.

  • Omthiest

    isn’t the conventional christian ideology that original sin released non-free will associated wrongs into the world like cancer? isnt that the same idea as people who are not alive screwing things up for people who are?
    Not trying to stir the bowl, just curious.
