Pat Robertson Sees Year Of Violence, Recession

[rsmith6621]

Religious Broadcaster Shares What He Believes God Has Told Him

NORFOLK, Va. -- Religious broadcaster Pat Robertson said Wednesday that 2008 will be a year of violence worldwide and a recession in the United States, followed by a major stock-market crash by 2010.

Praying about events in the coming year and sharing what he believes God has told him is an annual tradition for Robertson, founder of the Christian Broadcasting Network.

"The Lord was saying that there's going to be violence and chaos in the world," Robertson said on his "700 Club" news-and-talk show.

"We've just begun to see what's going to happen, and the nations are going to be convulsed with violence," he said, citing as an example unrest in Pakistan after the death of former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto.

.......Ole Rev Pat and OBL speak in the same week.....

[Initech]

1. Well gee, Pat, who do we have to blame for that, exactly?

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

2. minorities, obviously.

[Initech]

10. I was thinking more having 25 years of the lunatic fringe running things...

but I'll take that one. :evilgrin:

[lpbk2713]

3. Come on, Pat. Tell the full story.

You know BushCo fucked the whole planet and there has to be a major crisis sooner or later as a result.

Isn't that what you really want to say?

[On the Road]

4. That's What I Was Expecting, Too

but now I'm not so sure.

[napi21]

5. Last year he predicted there would be another horrendous attack

and thousands, maybe millions would die! That didn't happen either!

I heard this reminder of ole Patty's prediction on one of the talk shows on NY Eve. The host said there were only a few hours remaining before we could all tell Patty he was a NUT!

[Fed_Up_Grammy]

6. The Prophet speaks !

[Union Thug]

7. The Amazing Criswell agrees.

Tor Johnson will rise from the grave and join Bela Lugosi's demon alien army as the UFOs land near Hollywood in an epic battle for civilization.

[niyad]

8. ummm pat?? most people who think god is taking to them are residents of the happy dell home,

and they are not allowed to play with sharp objects.

sadly, it looks as though you relish the coming storm. wonder what you are doing to foment it?

[KitchenWitch]

17. And they have their shoelaces taken away!

[MidwestTransplant]

9. Stock market crash = buy blood diamonds instead.

[David Zephyr]

11. Everyone knows we are entering a recession. Pat's hot line to God must be cold.

Pat's connection to Heaven seems a bit rusty lately. His "breaking news" from the great beyond is really yesterday's news. Recession? Ooooh. That's really going out on a limb.

[dmallind]

12. Gosh that's tough

Violence and chaos in the world? Man what a Nostradamus - it's not like that hasn't been an unbroken string of about 6000 years or so (and I'm basing that on teh riugh start of "civilization, not Ussher's chronology trust me) has it?

But hey at least Pat now agrees with a lot of DUers for once - who also take great joy in forecasting the end of civilization, just for different reasons.

[demnan]

13. You're losing your touch, old bud

With Falwell gone you forgot to blame the gays, the liberals and the feminazi abortionists for the next recession and world wide strife.

[C_U_L8R]

14. The Lord was saying ???

The Lord was saying ???
Gee Pat, Gawd told you all that?
Really now.
It's an annual tradition between you and Gawd ?
Uh-huh.
Well that pretty much makes you either a blasphemer, a liar or just nuts
Maybe all three.. a blaspheming lying nutjob.
Pat, you're really a putz

[Johonny]

15. Yeah

But what about Brit and K-Fed? Come on Pat you talked to god and that's all yah got. Tell us something important!

[Parche]

16. LET US SPRAY

:spray: :spray: :spray: :spray: :hi:

[Contrary1]

18. It's easy to predict something that is already happening...

I know, God told him not to "predict" it until now. :eyes:

[JBoy]

19. Pat squats -

and drops this little turd of wisdom on us.

[Ellipsis]

20. Robertson = Liar, hypocrite, Blasphemer.

Proverbs 19:22

What is desirable in a man is his kindness, And it is better to be a poor man than a liar.


1 John 2:4
The one who says, "I have come to know Him," and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him;


He's just and old putz trying to stir the soup.

[miles 2 go]

21. It's a good thing God told him that personally

Coz otherwise nobody would ever dream of the possibility of chaos and violence happening in this world. (especially after the US repug years)

He also said the Lord told him who would be the next president. Has the Lord been talking to Rove? He was gonna keep it to himself though. (hate for the Lord to be wrong on the elections and all)

[SoCalDem]

22. Happy Apocalypse to YOU too, Pat

:)

[Javaman]

23. I see pat is a regular fucking genius there. nt

[fascisthunter]

24. Sounds Like another Self-Fullfilling Prophecy from Another Rightard

but hey... blame God.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

25. Is he predicting sunny weather in the Sahara, too? All seem like pretty safe bets.

[LittleClarkie]

26. How's his track record, I wonder.

Pat, darling, not entirely sure that's GOD you're talkin' to.

[tanyev]

27. Does he have a special deck of Christian tarot cards to come up with this stuff?
