Mike Malloy - Condoms Donīt Travel Through Pipelines



"TV preacher Pat Robertson on Monday advised his viewers to seek biblical investments like oil and gas because birth control doesn't flow through pipelines.

"During the 'Bring It On' segment of the 700 Club, a viewer told the televangelist that he needed some Christian financial advice. 'For years I have not invested in mutual funds for fear of investing in a company that profits from unbiblical means, such as the company who makes the abortion pill,' the viewer named John wrote. 'Are there 'safe' investments I can invest in with little start-up money?'

"Robertson said that he had been recommending master limited partnerships (MLPs), which are tax-exempt companies that own infrastructure like pipelines necessary for the oil and gas industry. 'And they are not flowing condoms through pipelines,' Robertson opined. 'So, don't worry about the fact they're giving abortion pills. They're putting out oil and gas through pipelines.'"

Ah Pat. Keep 'em coming. you're living proof of pseudo-Christian insanity. How, exactly, are oil and gas biblical? The only oil I remember being mentioned in the good book was either burned in a lamp or used to anoint somebody. Biblical gasoline? Did God create Exxon when He divided the heavens from the earth?
