The statement made by Pat Robertson was and is stupid. I havent fumed over something in while like this. There needs to be a whole scale rebuke of Pat Robertson by Christians all over the world. Too often white men from the right have made statements similar to this and have not been fully challenged on the basis of their thinking which basically is a white supremacy mindset. It says to the world that, niggers couldnt beat white folks at nothing, so they had to go and get the devil's help to do so.

As a Christian I am disturbed and hope that he repents of his statement and belief because it is dangerous. Too many people who do not believe in God do not come to God because sometimes we in the body of Christ have a tendency to make heretical statemnents like this one. Pat Robertson has to know that this type of belief system promotes hate and division. But of course, like many white people unfortunately, they have this kind of thinking. Pat acts as if a 7.0 earthquake is God's wrath in motion. Hate to put to you this way Pat but you are sadly mistaken and intellectually challenged. Last time I checked Pat, judgment begins at the house of God. The body of Christ has an opportunity world wide along with all of humanity to show the Haitian people, they are loved, people are praying for them and we all will answer the call. The people of Haiti need help, period. Not your twisted thoughts about what you think God did or is doing. That is just silly and plain stupid.

Lastly. If no one on a large scale really addresses this especially here in America, well Pat you can look forward to a pending judgment to take place on these shores. Too often whites are too quiet and sarcastic in moments like this. This is not your drunk uncle talking out of the side of his neck. This is about a man who is largely respected in the Christian community making  heretical statements about a nation who was used to bless America. See the Lousiana purchase. Dr Martin Luther King Jr. said that too often the silence of whites in the face of its own brutality toward people of color is the very thing that keeps people divided. Its not the henious acts of a few, but the silent majority who does and says nothing basically meaning that America is full of cowards. It takes a coward to make a hurtful statement about why hundreds of thousands of people are suffering and dying due to a pact with the devil. No Pat, you got it wrong, very wrong.

Heavy is the head that wears the crown, but I wont put mine down until I see Him.

Fox news stood behind Pat Robertson (no surprise there) saying he was making a reference to an even that occurred in history... I'm with you Richard. This is the mentality that whyte's used to justify slavery, apartheid and other cruel and malicious acts over Blacks, Africans, Indians... and the list goes on....

I thought I'd share this ... it brightened my day a little.

The Devil Addresses Pat Robertson...Personally....Sort of

Every now and then you run across something via the world wide web that...to mildly put it...is a real keeper.

Lilly Coyle of Minneapolis provided me with just that. The Minneapolis Star-Tribune published a letter from Satan to Pat Robertson. In actuality the letter was from Ms. Coyle. It's a great read. I only hope someone plasters it to Robertson's bed pillow. A little food for thought before Mr. Self-Righteous drifts off to sleep at night.

  
          Dear Pat Robertson,

I know that you know that all press is good press, so I appreciate the shout-out. And you make God look like a big mean bully who kicks people when they are down, so I'm all over that action.
But when you say that Haiti has made a pact with me, it is totally humiliating. I may be evil incarnate, but I'm no welcher. The way you put it, making a deal with me leaves folks desperate and impoverished.
Sure, in the afterlife, but when I strike bargains with people, they first get something here on earth -- glamour, beauty, talent, wealth, fame, glory, a golden fiddle. Those Haitians have nothing, and I mean nothing. And that was before the earthquake. Haven't you seen "Crossroads"? Or "Damn Yankees"?
If I had a thing going with Haiti, there'd be lots of banks, skyscrapers, SUVs, exclusive night clubs, -- that kind of thing. An 80 percent poverty rate is so not my style. Nothing against it -- I'm just saying: Not how I roll.
You're doing great work, Pat, and I don't want to clip your wings -- just, come on, you're making me look bad. And not the good kind of bad. Keep blaming God. That's working. But leave me out of it, please. Or we may need to renegotiate your own contract.
Best, Satan
 Thanks NPR

It is unfortunate for these type people to think they know the mind of God. I still believe that people such as Rush Limbaugh, Pat Robertson and others like them are going to the same heaven Adolph Hitler is in. I'm sure he is waiting on the arrival of Pat, Rush and the rest of their racist gang. Perhaps God will take his wrath out on them and their generations.

The telethon hosted by George Clooney over the weekend raised millions of dollars for the Haitian people..I pray that it gets into the *right* hands to help them get food, shelter, and clothing.. Plus rebuild their city..Also, I saw a segiment whereas mostly *white* people were adopting the children of Haiti over into the states..

Some people really need to learn to shut their mouths.
