And yet again, Pat Robertson has opened his mouth and out spewed the dumbest bullsh*t you can imagine. Nothing new, right?
On Monday, February 16, during the question and answer?portion of his show, The 700 Club, a female?watcher asked?if her daughter posting ultrasound photos of the baby on Facebook should be a cause for concern. His response was,
“I don’t think there is any harm in it. But I tell you, there are demons and there are evil people in the world, and you post a picture like that and some cultist gets hold of it or a coven and they begin muttering curses against an unborn child. You never know what somebody’s going to do.”
Wait … WHAT?
So he added more, just to clarify what he was saying and make sure the?audience understood:
?I just don’t think this business of posting photos of the most intimate parts of your body on Facebook, I just can’t see it. To me, it’s abhorrent. But it isn’t necessarily unbiblical. It’s just abhorrent.?
Do people actually listen to and heed the advice of this man? He is obviously suffering from dementia. Why is he even still on the air?
This isn’t new — he has been saying crazy sh*t for years
It was just a short year ago that Robertson told Ken Ham “Let’s not make a joke of ourselves.” That was in response to Ken Ham’s infamous debate with Bill Nye, the Science Guy. Ham lost the debate in a crash-and-burn disaster for pro-creationists.
The fact that Robertson thought Ham was making Uber-Christians look silly had me spitting coffee all over my keyboard … and the wall … and out of my nose. I think I might have even peed a little I laughed so hard.
The insane utterances issuing forth from Pat Robertson just keep on getting more hilarious. This partial list was compiled by AlterNet in April 2013. Now, in 2015, the list has at least quadrupled.
“1) Men with ?rebellious? wives should live where wife-beating is legal.
2) You should cast demons out of secondhand clothes you buy, lest their previous owner’s evil infect you.
3) God punishes people for having too much education.
4) Women just discovered porn, and quite possibly sex.
5) Beware ?scamsters in religious garb.
6) The government is gearing up to round up Americans for unspecified reasons.
7) Abortion is a lesbian conspiracy.
8) Atheists are trying to steal Christmas to make you miserable.
9) The earthquake punished Haitians for overthrowing slavery.
10) Divorce is wrong, unless your wife gets sick.”
To add to the list, Robertson felt compelled to blame lesbianism on girl-on-girl pornographic movies:
?They’re getting straight actresses to play lesbians and straight men to play homosexuals and if you say anything against homosexuality you are just hooted out of court.?
On a man’s infidelity:
?Like it or not, males have a tendency to wander a little bit. What you want to do is make a home so wonderful that he doesn’t want to wander.?
About his ability to ‘purify‘ a woman who has had multiple partners:
?Man. I’ll purify ya. I’ll purify ya. Just think of that. How many men ? dozens ? has she had relations with? How many had ogled her naked body as she was dancing, how many had groped at her, and fondled her, and made obscene remarks about her, and used her??
I wonder if anyone in that organization has the balls to tell him he is making Christianity a laughing stock? Probably not, or he would have been yanked off the air years ago. One thing is certain — we can?always count on a good laugh to cheer us up on a sad day by tuning in to his show. Please do not drink hot beverages while viewing.
Hold my beer and watch this …
