Let’s just stick to the facts and avoid the ad hominem attacks. Fact is that Robertson made a very unChristian comment about the assassination of President Chavez. After much fervor, he finally did apologize. Is he sincere in his apology? Absolutely not. But, we must let the apology stand. The man has cried ‘uncle.’ Let it go.

To vigorously pursue your opponent after he has cried ‘uncle’ borders on seeking vengeance — a very unChristian thing to do.

My previous comments are in response the the argument posted by this blog — that Pat Robertson’s concluding remarks contradict his apology. My point is the man has apologized and cried ‘uncle’. It is time to let it go.

Robertson’s assassination comment does not negate the necessity of evaluating whether Chavez is evil or not. The messenger has apologized for his poor delivery of the message; it is how time to look at his message — whether Chavez is someone the US should be concerned.

Robertson, as you indicate, is a rightwing nut not to be trusted. I don’t trust him any more than I can throw him. Robertson is bad for this country and Christianity.

However, anyone (Chavez) who aligns himself with Castro and other fascist leaders deserve attention.

Again, the messenger has apologized, now let us look at the message, especially since Chavez favors Castro and other fascist leaders.

I also wanted to add christianleftie you sound an awful lot like a Republican troll/provocateur I suggest you polish your routine a little more because you sound pretty goddamn silly right now.

You win converts to your side by sticking to and respecting the truth.

I am an evangelical Christian who routinely visits this site. I find myself on this side of the fence because of the O-ffenses of this administration. I am also College educated, if that helps anyone (in Psychology, Biblical Studies, and recently in Computer Science studies).

What irks me the most if that he refers to Dietrich Bonhoeffer and his writings (book: “The Cost of Discipleship”) which was written when he was in the Nazi prison camp (required reading in many seminaries). And yes, he was there for the reasons mentioned: he made an attempt on Hitlers’ life, but failed.

The most siginificant piece in all of this was not that Bonhoeffer was right to attempt this (I beleive he was as many might aggree), but that he actually *agonized* over this decision; he did not make this choice lightly or flippantly. Also–Hitler was an obvious threat at that time, but Chavez is not.

Bonhoeffer actually agonizes the pros and cons of such a weighty decision, for it’s moral/ethical, and spiritual implications. Somehow, I don’t think Uncle Pat is in the same category. His words are very self-revelatory of the sin he might/would commit in this regard.

So for “Uncle Pat” (as he likes to be called by his associates) to back-track, and to somehow find solace in Bonhoeffer is very disgusting to me. Pat Robertson is no Bonhoeffer!

One other thing. Pat makes the rest of us look like clowns, and diminshes the credibility of Christianity, which just pisses me off even more. Many evangelical Christians do their best to distance themselves from likes of Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell. They don’t speak for us, and we don’t believe they accurately reflect Christianity.

God’s peace be with you, and get the bums out of office…

Stay away religious wackos

Pat Robertson is an embarrassment to the church and a danger to American politics.

Robertson is known for his completely irresponsible statements – that the 9/11 terrorist attacks were due to American feminists and liberals, that true Christians could vote only for George W. Bush, that the federal judiciary is a greater threat to America than those who flew the planes into the World Trade Center Towers, and the list goes on. Robertson even took credit once for diverting a hurricane. But his latest outburst may take the cake.

On Monday, Robertson called for the assassination of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez…

It’s clear Robertson must not have first asked himself “What would Jesus do?” But the teachings of Jesus have never been very popular with Robertson. He gets his religion elsewhere, from the twisted ideologies of an American brand of right-wing fundamentalism that has always been more nationalist than Christian. Apparently, Robertson didn’t even remember what the Ten Commandments say, though he has championed their display on the walls of every American courthouse. That irritating one about “Thou shalt not kill” seems to rule out the killing of foreign leaders. But this week, simply putting biblical ethics aside, Robertson virtually issued an American religious fatwah for the murder of a foreign leader – on national television no less. That may be a first…

It’s time to name Robertson for what he is: an American fundamentalist whose theocratic views are not much different from the “Muslim extremists” he continually assails. It’s time for conservative evangelical Christians in America, who are not like Islamic fundamentalists or Robertson, to distance themselves from his embarrassing and dangerous religion.

And it’s time for Christian leaders of all stripes to call on Robertson not just to apologize, but to retire.

Re. the comparison with Bonhoeffer: that’s particularly disgusting and shameless. Bonhoeffer to decided to join the conspiracy to assassinate Hitler only after much soul-searching, and after he saw the evidence of Hitler’s mass murders in the occupied countries. More about the Robertson-Bonhoeffer comparison at http://langohio.blogspot.com.

Blogs from The WB42 5:30 Report with Doug Krile – from the American Legion uproar to Olbermann outing the PR firm behind the pro-Bush protestors. The list goes far beyond that!

This issue is far from settled. This was a non-apology apology. To compare himself to Bonhoeffer is beyond the pale. Robertson still needs to be held to acccount for his original death wish.

Because the “700 Club” is broadcast on network affiliates across the United States, FCC scrutiny applies. His comments fail to meet the “community standards” benchmark. So, here’s an idea: File an indecency complaint.

Fortunately, our friends over at the bi-partisan Parents TV Council — a huge fan of Robertson — have streamedlined the complaining process.

Go to https://www.parentstv.org/ptc/fcc/fcccomplaint2.asp and take it from there.

Or, if you prefer eliminating the middle man, just send an e-mail to fccinfo@fcc.gov

Let’s give Robertson a taste of his own medicine!

And if the people who listen to the 700 Club haven’t figured out Robertson by now, well God help them…they are already hopelessly lost. Robertson is the poster child for Wolves in Sheep’s Clothing.

In my opinion, the problem seems to stem from an over-developed sense of entitlment that many Americans suffer. The Public education system does an abysmal job of educating children about our history as a nation.
It is their duty to right the wrongs of the world and spread obsequious facsimiles of democracy throughout.
