Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Pat Robertson is dead

Good riddance. Robertson, a conservative Christian, spread hate and ignorance. He’s one of a long list of pastors like Falwell, Coughlin, etc who were bigots, mysogynists, etc.

some of his idiotic claims:

On adultery

“Males have a tendency to wander a little bit. And what you want to do is make a home so wonderful he doesn’t want to wander.”

On a man with an Alzheimer’s-stricken wife

“I know it sounds cruel, but if he’s going to do something, he should divorce her and start all over again, but to make sure she has custodial care and somebody (is) looking after her.”

On Walt Disney World’s “Gay Days”

“I would warn Orlando that you’re right in the way of some serious hurricanes, and I don’t think I’d be waving those flags in God’s face if I were you … It’ll bring about terrorist bombs; it’ll bring earthquakes, tornadoes, and possibly a meteor.”

On the role of a man and a woman

“I know this is painful for the ladies to hear, but if you get married, you have accepted the headship of a man, your husband. Christ is the head of the household, and the husband is the head of the wife, and that’s the way it is, period.”

On feminism

“The feminist agenda is not about equal rights for women. It is about a socialist, anti-family political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians.”

On the devastating 2010 Haiti earthquake

“They were under the heel of the French, you know, Napoleon the third and whatever. And they got together and swore a pact to the devil. They said, ‘We will serve you if you will get us free from the prince.’ True story.

And so the devil said, ‘OK, it’s a deal.’ And they kicked the French out. The Haitians revolted and got themselves free. But ever since they have been cursed by one thing after another.”

On homosexuality

“Many of those people involved in Adolf Hitler were Satanists. Many were homosexuals. The two things seem to go together.”

On assassinating Hugo Chavez

“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.”

On the tornadoes that ravaged the Midwest in 2012

“If enough people were praying, (God) would’ve intervened. You could pray. Jesus stilled the storm. You can still storms.” – “The Top 10: Facebook ‘vomit’ button for gays and other Pat Robertson quotes”, CNN July 9, 2013

  1. Boomp Boomp Boomp, another one bites the dust.

    A horribly disgusting excuse for a human being. Will not be missed at my house.

    Pardon me for a moment of schadenfreude, knowing full well that fucker is just dead, and whatever afterlife he felt was promised is blowing in the wind. I have to imagine an asshole of that magnitude ain’t even good for worm food…

    World is a better place today than it was yesterday.

  2. I got the point behind your post … but it almost made me upchuck my breakfast to read these quotes! (And to think during my “religious” days, I actually supported him for president! A memory I would most definitely like to erase!!!)

  3. My Facebook comment was “What can I say? But, to quote a dude, ‘I’ve never wished a man dead, but I have read some obituaries with great pleasure.’ Why do I have to be nice? He wasn’t!”
