Press Release
Statement Regarding Pat Robertson's Comments on Haiti

CBN.com – VIRGINIA BEACH, Va., January 13, 2010 --On today’s The 700 Club, during a segment about the devastation, suffering and humanitarian effort that is needed in Haiti, Dr. Robertson also spoke about Haiti’s history. His comments were based on the widely-discussed 1791 slave rebellion led by Boukman Dutty at Bois Caiman, where the slaves allegedly made a famous pact with the devil in exchange for victory over the French. This history, combined with the horrible state of the country, has led countless scholars and religious figures over the centuries to believe the country is cursed. Dr. Robertson never stated that the earthquake was God’s wrath. If you watch the entire video segment, Dr. Robertson’s compassion for the people of Haiti is clear. He called for prayer for them. His humanitarian arm has been working to help thousands of people in Haiti over the last year, and they are currently launching a major relief and recovery effort to help the victims of this disaster. They have sent a shipment of millions of dollars worth of medications that is now in Haiti, and their disaster team leaders are expected to arrive tomorrow and begin operations to ease the suffering.

Chris Roslan
Spokesman for CBN

4. I like your response
OK, so why does Pat need his name in the banner twice?
So his "fans" are clear that is indeed him?

3. Are Robertson apologists more evil Than Robertson? He's a demented
evil man, but what is Chris Roslan's excuse?

5. Go to hell, Pat. Go directly to hell. Do not pass go. Do not collect $100
That anal cyst is a waste of oxygen.

7. Robertson is exactly the sort that Jesus
would have thrown out of the Temple. His 700 Club is a money-making machine, fleecing the naive faithful. He's hateful and hypocritical.

9. Yes, practically oozing with compassion
Once he's made it clear that 200 years ago the ancestors of the people suffering so horribly sold their souls to the devil. Now that Pat's established his compassion bona fides and stuff, please leave. Another shipment of diamonds just came in, and Pat likes to spend a few quality moments alone with them before their release to make even more money for him.

14. I always find it interesting
that they can get on tv and radio, make a stupid statement and then someone else has to come out and explain what was really meant.

16. That's also how they deal with the Bible. "I know what Jesus said,
but here's what he really meant."
