It's part of the Grand Bargain between God and Satan. Satan does God's work by testing the frailty and loyalty of the human species. You know, like with Job. Pat is just one of many false prophets that were prophesied in the bible.

Many years ago, when I was still a child, I heard kids at school talking about Catechism and Bar Mitzvahs. So, I went home and asked my father about God and about which religion I should follow.

Dad looked thoughtful and replied that this was a path I'd have to find on my own because he didn't feel comfortable telling me what religion I should follow. He suggested I read a lot of things and think it through.

I nodded, and he went on to say that someday I might join a church, and that if I did, they might ask me for money.

In fact, he said, they might ask you for a LOT of money. It is called a tithe.

When they do ask, he continued, you should take the paper money out of your wallet and throw it up in the air. Tell the person asking that anything that stays up in the air is God's and anything that falls back to the ground is yours.

I have always thought that funny, and have used it several times. Yet if there is a charity or cause in which I believe, I do donate. I just don't think these right-wing evangelical 'christians' are in tune at all with the Christian philosophy as set forth in Matthew 5-7. As a consequence, I push the ol' BULLSHIT button whenever a 'christian' tries to spout that shit at me.

I think Pat might actually be working for the other guy. Think about that a minute.

Seriously, these idiots, Bannon included, are eagerly trying to hasten Armageddon because, hey, it's God's plan. They are actually HELPING God by rounding up people, unleashing ICE on law abiding Americans, waking up overt racism and homophobia. Because we NEED a tribulation where millions of people are killed.

That's right! We NEED this. We can leave the world a smoking cinder with an unbreathable atmosphere and undrinkable water because when Jesus comes back, why, everything will be hunky dory.

Put this guy in a straitjacket before he BURIES us all in his bullshit.

I'M PRESSING THE BULLSHIT BUTTON RIGHT NOW!

I was living in shared housing following a divorce in 1980. Divorces can cause a shakeup in many aspects of your life, mine was a spiritual one. I decided I'd better consider "getting right with God" and maybe my life would get on track. Started watching televangelism because, hey, all those people couldn't be wrong.

Two things came out of my time spent watching the Bakkers, Copeland, the Crouchs, Hinn, Roberts, Swaggart, Falwell, Graham, and of course Robertson.

First I realized these people were not to be taken lightly. My two housemates were very sheltered liberals, who like many of the people I encounter on progressive forums, scoffed and laughed at my concerns about this fledgling movement. I saw the potential for these people to mold and form an impressive group of scared and angry people who could work in unison to exert a disproportionate influence politically. Would have really liked to have been wrong on that one.

Second I had my answer to whether I had any use for any version of Christianity that aligned itself with these people. If they are all going to "Heaven" I'm happy to take my chances on other options because spending eternity with people like these would truly be living in Hell.

Pat Robertson today asked God to "deliver" the US from President Obama before it's too late. After implying that Obama is a Muslim, Robertson told 700 Club viewers: "We need to do something to pray to be delivered from this president. He is a disaster, an absolute disaster. Democrat, Republican or whatever, this country is into serious decline unless something dramatic is done about it."

Pathetic Robertson cites OT fables, stories and psalms -- words written for Iron Age sheep herders -- in these situations, but never, ever refers to NT stories about "love thy neighbor" or turning the other cheek. Those words simply don't fit his narrative. So he ignores them.

His "god" is almight. The almighty dollar! And he wants to steal from the easiest pickings out there: low-information sheeple!
