Thanks, Pat
Just when you think Pat Robertson can’t say anything dumber and less Jesus-like, he outdoes himself. If you haven’t heard, here’s a recap. The school board of Dover, PA, has been attempting to include “Intelligent Design” in the science curriculum. The voters responded by electing a new school board this week. Pat Robertson, speaking on his TV show, The 700 Club, had this to say:
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…. And don’t wonder why He hasn’t helped you when problems begin, if they begin. I’m not saying they will, but if they do, just remember, you just voted God out of your city. And if that’s the case, don’t ask for His help because he might not be there.
Pat. Please. You’re not helping. Do you really think God speaks to you because you have a TV show? (Do you really think that God cares more about the school curriculum in Dover than he does about the rampant greed and materialism in the whole country?)
Somebody help Pat find the nursing home, please.
