...and they say witches are wierd.

To whom are you referring to, Pat, or Myself, cause if you are referring to me, I thought that was obvious by now

mr. robertson,

i don't see you running around claiming the world is going to end through natural disasters, due to the overwhelming amount of sin in the world.

No I do not, I run around work ranting that the world shall suffer from Bird Flu. By the way, why oh why do you have my last name in your sig.... twice?

cab calloway's minnie the moocher; it's a tongue twisting chorus! I have no idea what your last name is.

the bird flu is a practical concern, there are a lot of natural concerns in the world today, that's obvious...for people to think there's some divine, reason between it all?

but i'm also concerned for the people who deny there is anything wrong...either way, nature is out of balance; i don't need some one like him to tell me this, he's just stating the obvious and frosting the top.

Well here is my logic: 6.5 billion people, one nasty goddamn virus, and it has happened before

I think when I was out at dinner last night, I heard people at a nearby table talking about something like this. They also were discussing crooked priests/ministers, what heaven and hell really are, and other things like that. I was half-tempted to stop by the table and say, "Thanks for questioning things" on my way out."

i think that's what makes movies like the davinci code, frightening, to many fundamentals. It stops and makes people think, that little "what if" waking them out of their, passivity. book based religions seem to be losing some of their dominance, people are seeking elsewhere for answers, and finding them...even the churchs are acknowledging this, and are beginning to seek out other ways to, regain that loss, i suppose it could be blamed on the rising age of aquarius?

the roman catholics are training more priests in exorcism to counter the uprising of hell and save the world.

I'm not holding my breath or pooh-poohing that. I think on some level the consciousness level could be being raised to the point that people are really starting to question things, with the more aware actively seeking answered to those in complete denial beginning to feel uncomfortable. My own eclectic belief system would support this idea of something going on.

I just got a flashback from the movie (The Exorcist) in my head...the part when Father Karras is in the room with Regan and she begins talking like his mother.... "Dimi, why you do this to me, Dimi? Why?"

I was reading some interesting things about exorcism a while back in terms of it being psychologically cathartic for some people who perhaps aren't even actively religious.

I also wonder what this will do to the Christian religion as a whole. Could it overtly display the animosity between the Catholics and the Protestants again? That would almost be like history unraveling itself. I often think if Jesus was alive and could see what people do "in His name" he'd have a fit. I mean, if any of the stuff that is written is what he allegedly said, he was a pretty good teacher. So was Buddha, et. al. They all had something to say, and it's pretty simple, and it's too bad that more people didn't really listen then. It could have changed some attitudes. More people could have been at that questioning stage already, although if the Aquarian Age theory is true, then things are happening right on time. I don't think there are really any ways to determine who is right on all this type of stuff.

This is why I hold no faith in religions, this is why they scare me. The damned fundamentalists. They make you dumb, and unquestioning "You have to take it on faith, you aren't supposed to question god's will" Who the hell are you to determine if this is gods will? That is what pat is basically saying "Its God's will that the east coast gets hammered, and that the west coast is gonna be slammed by a wall of water" Why Pat just because you say so, just like Ariel Sherone's stroke was god's will for pulling out of the gaza strip? What he would rather the Isralis and Palastinians murdering each other than have peace? And for that matter, why wasn't Mother Teresa a real christian, huh? Tell me that, she was catholic, and she had a level of compassion that could rival that of your almighty Jesus. And 9/11 being a result of our sinful ways. Let me tell you something, the mother fuckers responsible for that horror concider you to be worse than the rest of us, as you are a leader of an infidel religion, they want you to die more than anyone else, you fucking moron........ I am going to shut up now before I blow a vessel, and splatter my monitor in blood as a result

Yeah, I'm good like that.

If the prediction was from someone else? I dunno, I'd have to see their degree and credentials first...

I hope that wasn't for me...I'm not a Christian. And Nox, don't go giving yourself an embolism over this because it wouldn't change anything except some poor soul having to clean up a mess all over your desk. At the same time, I can understand why someone would get that angry about this.

I cannot help it, ignorant zealotry(I dunno if there is such a thing as informed zealotry now that I think about it) pisses me off to no end

Well, do you need to go for the aneurism? Can't you just get chest pains or agita or something? Pat Robertson is not worth a brain hemmorhage.

Well if you are gonna do something might as well do it right, and go all the way

So, do you think if ol' Patty turns out wrong, he'll claim demonic influence? Or just try to pretend he never said it.

Well fuck, he's half right already, but it is because "God" said so, its because its been going on for a few years already, the dumb fuck is just stating the fucking obvious, the arrogant fucking prick anyways

I agree. I really don't understand why there is such a market for these goddamned Televangelists. Too high a percentage of imbeciles with IQs lower than room temperature to support them. This cess pool of a country needs some bleach.

All the bleach in the world wouldn't be enough man, fuck that. Dichloride crystals, and an electric skillet
