God killed millions in Sodom and Gomorrah and in the flood he probably killed billions of men, women, and children,(and fuzzy little animals for the Peta people here). One of the hardest things for pseudo Christians to fathom is God killed millions and sanctioned the killing of millions by the Jews in the Bible. This has always been us against them and will be till the final battle. One should decide early on if you are an "us" or a "them". Self defense is a God given right just as you wouldn't hesitate to kill an intruder into your home, God doesn't condemn the killing of murderous despots. When Saddam get the hangman's noose, are we supposed to give him mercy because we are Christians? We put him there.
I think the problem here is most people here have been conditioned to have a knee jerk reaction to the name "Pat Robertson". You want him to be a kook, so the venom starts at the sound of his name. I seem to remember awhile back he was quoted as saying "God told him Bush would be re elected". I remember the hoots and hollering then. Well, he was re elected and there was no apology to Pat. I don't care for everything Pat says either, but he is at least as Christian as the pope.
