VIRGINIA BEACH-Religious broadcaster Pat Robertson is warning that, according to God, storms and possibly a tidal wave will pound America's coastline this year.

Dang. God doesn't tell me nuthin'.

Hey patti cakes, what's with all the gloom and doom???

Religious broadcaster Pat Robertson is warning that, according to God, storms and possibly a tidal wave will pound America's coastline this year.

Don't they every year? That 'possibly' takes this from 'wha?' to 'duh.'

Widespread natural disasters... are seen by many Pentecostals and charismatic Christians like Robertson as biblically decreed harbingers of the “end times.”

And they're seen by environmentalists as harbingers of "global warming". Everybody has their articles of faith.

Oh, you're just jealous because the little voices are only talking to him!

[H. Paul Pressler IV]

Storms on the American Coastline!


Look like Pat is going out on a limb on this one.

[Normal4me]

What is God telling the NHC? Hmmm?

[Miss Marple]

Pat Robertson is the Howard Dean of Christianity.

[H. Paul Pressler IV]

Perhaps these are "Smart Storms" that only target Gays, Muslims, Catholics, Jews and anyone who has not sent Five Hundred Bucks to the 700 Club.

A Q-Tip usually takes care of those voices.

Sheesh. It's kooks like this who give Christianity a bad name.

That wasn't God talking to you Pat it was Al Gore

[Argus]

Slow news day down there in Virginia Beach, is it?

Pat needs to go to the source:

I wish Pat would shut up with providing us his personal cell phone messages from the Almighty. He has supported the lamest array of RINO moderate positions over the years and then provides the rats with a stereotype punching bag to use to promote their bogus bogeyman 'the Christian right'with his silly ass 'G-d sent (fill in the calamity) because America has gone topless.'

"“If I heard the Lord right about 2006, the coasts of America will be lashed by storms,” Robertson said May 8. Today, he added, “there well may be something as bad as a tsunami in the Pacific Northwest.”"

He's baaaaack!

Just a little chuckle for you to divert from the doings in Congress. Get out of Seattle Clemenza, while the getting is good.

Pat,

Exodus 20:7

You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God, for the LORD will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name.

[BeHoldAPaleHorse]

Or, as Aretha Franklin so memorably expressed it The Blues Brothers:

"DON'T YOU BLASPHEME IN HERE! DON'T YOU BLASPHEME!"

[SF Republican]

Messages from the Almighty - one of the best sermons I ever heard was from a preacher that started out - The phone rang, I answered it, it was God asking me to help someone; then I was walking down the street and God came up and asked me to help him out - it pointed out how we hear from God everyday in very small ways. Having said that, I think Pat is nuts.

[verity]

I am always put on indefinite 'hold' when I call.

Getting in the news is necessary for these fabously wealthy people who have made their money in the God business.

But I don't need to pay Jerry Falwell, Billy Graham, Pat Robertson, Jim Bakker or any of the other TV stars to get into Heaven. I can make it on my own -- with God's help.
