God Speaks to Pat Robertson Again



The Viginian-Pilot[Link]
"The Lord didn't say nuclear. "But I do believe it will be something like that." Pat Robertson



"God is Love--tough Love."

Yesterday, Rev. Pat Robertson revealed to a waiting world part of a discussion he recently had with God almighty. Robertson said the informal talk included topics of the weather, politics, Gerald Ford's, Saddam Hussein's and James Brown's death. "God was pretty proud of the way that worked out, with all three going on the same weekend" Robertson said.

The major topics of the talk, of course, were homosexuality and abortion. Poverty, disease and the Iraq war never came up, according to Robertson. "God told me that until the homo thing and baby killing are squared away, he couldn't even begin to talk poverty and that other stuff." Mr. Robertson said that God is "really getting PO'd with these secular humanist, liberal, leftie, commies " and that He is "going to put (his) foot down, pretty soon." According to Mr. Robertson, "God is planning something really big for the end of '07. Something along the lines of a terrorist attack. I mean a BIG terrorist attack. Lots and lots of death and destruction."

When asked for a more specific date and details of how God's wrath will be dispensed, Robertson said, "God wouldn't be more specific than to say the end of 2007. He's holding his cards pretty close to his chest. There is still some logistical stuff to work out. Besides, he wants it to be a surprise. All I can tell you is that many will perish, including innocent women and children."

Robertson said his talk with the Almighty ended with best wishes for the new year all around. "Except towards the end of the year", Robertson chuckled. "You know, God has a wonderful sense of humor, and he told me a blond angel joke I wish I could share with you, but He made me promise not to." Robertson grinned his boyish grin and blushed as he added, "I really wish I could because it was a gem, only a teensy bit naughty. All I can tell you is that it has to do with a blond angel, a harp, puffy clouds, a lamb and St. Peter."

God has been talking to Mr. Robertson for many years now, and although not all of what God has told him has come to pass Robertson continues to feel confident and hopeful. "Hey, this could be the really big one" he said. "On the other hand, even God can be wrong now and then. After all, He's only human."

Post script:

There is an excellent letter to the editor of the Virginian-Pilot "Robertson's predictions stir up fear and trembling" which speaks to my main concern with Robertson and his prediction of doom. Since God did not tell him where or when these events will occur or what steps we can take to prevent them, why would Robertson tell us. To strike fear in the hearts of those who believe anything he says? Maybe.
