Pat Robertson: Christians Must Be Aware Muslim Neighbors Want To Kill You; Obama Advancing Islam


Today on “The 700 Club,” Pat Robertson said that the Islamic world has largely embraced violent extremism “like a trigger went off” and “something activated this latent spirit in Islam.”

Robertson said that while Christians in the Middle East should love their Muslim neighbors, they must “be aware that they are trying to kill you.”

Earlier in the program, the televangelist repeated his frequent refrain that President Obama is aiding Islamic extremists, telling listeners that Obama has “a desire to somehow weaken America, weaken western power and build up Islam.”

“His action time and time again is favoring Islam and not favoring America and what we would call western democracy,” Robertson said.

'Obama has “a desire to somehow weaken America, weaken western power and build up Islam.”

“His action time and time again is favoring Islam and not favoring America and what we would call western democracy,” Robertson said.'

Frighteningly crazy and dishonest, from someone whose attitudes are 'favouring theocratic religion and not favoring America and what we would call western democracy'. Maybe his own theocratic, anti-democratic leanings lead him to suspect others of similar leanings!

Here in the Keys we used to have an entertainer who would stand on the stage, make fun of the tourists, and sing, "Give me your American dollars"... And sure enough they would line up in droves and hand him bill after bill! At least I had respect for him because he was funny, and never promised them any seats in heaven. 😄😂

The saddest thing I learned while living in the South. People make huge financial sacrifices just to support these people. Pat can't be ridiculed enough. He's an evil asshole with no morals at all. Fuck 'em.
