47. A snail mail campaign:
Print out LETTERS, and mail to any/all organizations associated with Pat Robertson, including all venues where he speaks.
Include this quote copied from above:


If anyone does not listen to my words that the prophet speaks in my name, I myself will call him to account. BUT A PROPHET WHO PRESUMES TO SPEAK IN MY NAME ANYTHING I HAVE NOT COMMANDED HIM TO SAY, OR A PROPHET WHO SPEAKS IN THE NAME OF OTHER GODS, MUST BE PUT TO DEATH.

YOU MAY SAY TO YOURSELVES, HOW CAN WE KNOW WHEN A MESSAGE HAS NOT BEEN SPOKEN BY THE LORD?


IF WHAT A PROPHET PROCLAIMS IN THE NAME OF THE LORD DOES NOT TAKE PLACE OR COME TRUE, THAT IS A MESSAGE THE LORD HAS NOT SPOKEN. THAT PROPHET HAS SPOKEN PRESUMPTUOUSLY. DO NOT BE AFRAID OF HIM.


Then include the following from the article in the OP:

Is Pat Robertson the False Prophet?
You decide!

According to a February 15, 1988, Washington Post article, Robertson said, "I heard the Lord saying 'I have something else for you to do. I want you to run for president of the United States.'" The same article noted that during one campaign stop during the 1988 presidential race, Robertson stated: "This is where God wanted me to be. ... Here I am in New Hampshire, before a major primary." He then said, "I assure you that I am going to be the next president of the United States," according to a February 15 Washington Post article. After trailing George H.W. Bush and Senator Bob Dole in the Republican primaries, Robertson's 1988 presidential campaign ended before the Republican convention. A February 2004 article in Church & State magazine (published by Americans United for Separation of Church and State) noted several Robertson predictions that turned out to be false, including that Russia would invade Israel in 1982, and that there would be a worldwide economic collapse in 1985. The article went on to mention that "In his 1991 book, The New World Order, Robertson predicted that U.S. Sen. Jay Rockefeller would be elected president in 1996."

Robertson's predictions for 2005:

* The economy: "Again, 2005 is going to be a year of extraordinary prosperity for this nation and for CBN . And I think the American stock market is going to surge upward, if I heard from the Lord. Again, ladies and gentlemen, don't go and buy stock on my recommendation, but that's what I feel in my heart. The Lord was saying it's going to be a super good year."

* George W. Bush: "Well, the Lord has some very encouraging news for George Bush ... What I heard is that Bush is now positioned to have victory after victory and that his second term is going to be one of triumph, which is pretty strong stuff. ... He'll have Social Security reform passed. He'll have tax reform passed. He'll have conservative judges on the courts. And that basically he is positioned for a series of dramatic victories which I hope will hearten him and his advisers. They don't have to be timid in this matter because the wind is blowing at his back, and he can move forward boldly and get results."

* Muslims and others turning to Jesus Christ: "In America, again if I'm hearing God right, we will see a tremendous incident of miracles in the year 2005. ... God's spirit is going to be moving in dramatic power around the world. And his spirit is going to be touching the hearts of many in the Muslim world and they will be turning to the gospel, to Jesus Christ. I think many of them already are, but this is going to be an acceleration that will really amaze the world. ... 'Revival will break out throughout the Muslim world, my truth will penetrate their hearts. The hold of that falsehood that has gripped them will be broken.'"

* Terrorism and global security: "2005 will be another good year for the world. The terrorist threat will diminish. Nations will walk in peace, but it will be an illusion. The peril to Israel is greater now than it has ever been for she will be seduced into a false peace that will leave her vulnerable."

* The Supreme Court: "The vendetta against religion in America is about to end. ... 'I will remove judges from the Supreme Court quickly and their successors will refuse to sanction the attacks on religious faith.'"



On the front of the envelop, write across the bottom: "Donation Enclosed". This will ensure that the envelop is opened and examined.


WOW, I just Goggled Pat Robertson Ministries. This guy has huindreds of connections.
I started to compile a list of addresses, but that task will take someone with a stronger stomach than me.
