The Rev. Pat Robertson, who once said his prayers turned a hurricane away from Washington, D.C., feels quake damage to the Washington Monument may carry a message from the Lord.
The TV evangelist cited a four-foot crack in the Washington Monument, caused by Tuesdays 5.8 earthquake, as a possible sign from the supernatural. He did not discuss greater damage inflicted on spires of the Washington Cathedral.
Ladies and gentlemen I dont want to get weird on this so please take it for what its worth, the Rev. Pat, a former Republican presidential candidate, told his TV audience.

Televangelists both embarrass and enrage me. They are nothing more than demigods. Earthquakes always crack something. It’s what they do, Pat.
Well, that’s certainly putting things in proper perspective.
Pretty much what I was thinking. Never mind Pat for the moment, but if the Monument were to fall during Obama's administration, what a symbol of its failure!
I agree with you. Not all who write on this site are Conservatives by any measure.
Right. God did not turn away from man - but man did turn from God and turning at break neck speed.
NY for one - is worse than Sodom and Gommorah. S&G was not even so perverse as to want to marry and their gov’t condone it with making law - same sex marriages! We wouldn’t even touch the subject of 50M babies aborted and all the other ‘anti-God/Jesus’ rules in place. Bloomberg/NYC said NO PRAYER at the 9/11 commemoration.
When God sends a message, it’s a
bit more dramatic than a crack...
I mean, c’mon, Pat, this is GOD ALMIGHTY
you’re referring to .... a measly crack??
As faithful as I am, when the Good Lord
decides America needs to hear from Him,
I am hiding in the caves.
Now, the fact that everything Barry touches
DOES tend to turn to sh!t strikes me as
God just laughing at the young Kenyan.
To absorb vibrations in rear differentials, FORD used to put a long piece of metal with a lump of vibration deadening material at the end. It would 'dampen' the vibration.
Vibrations have a tendency to travel along(up) something like the Monument or Cathedral Spires, and without a dead mass at the top, they vibrate like crazy.
Perhaps SHAPE has more to do with this than the HAND OF GOD.
Where is Nikola Tesla when we need him?
It is truly a shame that, instead of being renowned for spreading the gospel and making disciples, Pat Robertson is renowned for putting words into God’s mouth.
