The End (& Robertson) is Here...Again

Will somebody please tell him to shut up? Seriously... Listen, I came from a fundamental Christian background and have grown into my own sense of spirituality over the years, I have an open mind with regard to all religions (yes Pat & Dubya, over 65% of the world's population will be living in eternal damnation because they believe differently than you), but I'm getting tired of Pat's conversations with God and us for that matter. Hmm, let's see what other christian-like comments he's made recently:

Robertson Suggests God smote Sharon, January 2006
"He (Sharon) was dividing God's land, and I would say, 'Woe unto any prime minister of Israel who takes a similar course to appease the [European Union], the United Nations or the United States of America...God says, 'This land belongs to me, and you'd better leave it alone...'"

Robertson called for the assassination of Venezuela's president, August, 2005
"You know, I don't know about this doctrine of assassination, but if he thinks we're trying to assassinate him, I think that we really ought to go ahead and do it. It's a whole lot cheaper than starting a war. We have the ability to take him out, and I think the time has come that we exercise that ability."

Robertson Agrees with Faldwell...Gays, Abortionists & Feminists, Cause of September 11 Attacks, September, 2001
"I really believe that the pagans, and the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an alternative lifestyle, the ACLU, People For the American Way, all of them who have tried to secularize America. I point the finger in their face and say 'you helped this happen."
(Of course after public outcry, Robertson stated that he had not understood what Falwell was saying during the interview, which was conducted via television monitor)

The list goes on and on and on... I'm sure Christians and non-Christians alike worldwide would appreciate it if you'd keep your direct conversations (do you use Skype to talk to him or are the discussions via e-mail or SMS?) with God to yourself.

On another, completely unrelated subject, for those avid readers like myself who are always looking for a good recommendation, here is a link to The New York Times poll asking the question, "What Is the Best Work of American Fiction of the Last 25 Years?"
