To Pat Robertson: SHUT THE HELL UP.
No, seriously.

Thanks to people like Pat Robertson, the world sees Christians as narrow minded bigots willing to kill and rape and destroy anything that threatens their narrow worldview. This little fiasco will, more likely than not, make it even more difficult for real Christians to share the message of Jesus Christ with others.
Jesus said that the world would hate his desciples... but I'm pretty sure that he was reffering to the fact that the world will hate them because we believed on him, and not because we're narrow minded buffoons who are more concerned with legislating morality than showing genuine love, grace, and compassion to others.
Thanks, Pat. You've just made my job a hell of a lot harder.

Pat Pat Pat .... you'd think it's the character from that SNL skit ... but its not. The sad thing is people see Pat as an accurate representation of us .... SAD.
While agreed, the 'real Christians' comment might have been a little uncalled for.
Point taken, but comment not retracted. The man's a dead weight to the Christian community, and at this point I'm not sure anyone's taking his faith seriously.
Come to think of it, I think the "real Christians" comment was entirely called for... and was kind of the point I was trying to make.
