Oh Pat.....

I know i give Pat Robertson a hard time about things, but lets get serious, he just keeps the good times rolling. I was scrolling through the news pages when I saw that he made another comment making the Christian community to look like a bunch of twits. He told the town of Dover, PA and I quote: "I'd like to say to the good citizens of Dover: if there is a disaster in your area, don't turn to God, you just rejected Him from your city," Robertson said on his daily television show broadcast from Virginia, "The 700 Club." (cnn.com search 'Pat Roberston')

What gets me the most about this is that we believe the Jehovah God is a loving God, a God who forgives us no matter how bad we've been. I think Pat is forgetting this. Once again lets get serious, this creative design position is not even Christian, it's closer than evolution but it doesn't state that it is the same creator that created the world in the Bible. So Pat is saying that God is passing judgement on a city because they voted on an issue that isn't even Biblical. That's smart.

I am sick and tired of people pronouncing judgement on those who do not believe in God. I ask what do you expect of people who are without faith? Do you expect them to follow the same moral standard as Christians? No! That's not the way it works. Non-believers don't think the same way that believers think, that's what non-believers do. They don't believe what we believe; that's kinda the point!

The God I believe in doesn't have a vendetta with the world. He's not like that; he forgives and is looking to forgive. It's not that hard ask and he'll grant forgivness! That's how great our God is! I wish Pat would remember that before he says boneheaded things like he does!

I question his mental status as well. It's hard for me to believe that he realizes the detrimental words he blasts at people and now whole towns. It seems odd to me that he can proclaim God's judgement upon an entire town due to people using the democratic voting system to turn down an "alternative" to evolutionary teaching. I agree with ya bro and follow your line of thinking. take it easy
