Bringing Life to the Body or Death???

August 24th, 2005

Pulled from the Washington Post

Speaking on the same program Monday, Robertson said killing Chavez would be cheaper than starting a war to oust him. Getting rid of Chavez would stop Venezuela from becoming a "launching pad for communist influence and Muslim extremism," Robertson said.

"We have the ability to take him out, and I think the time has come that we exercise that ability," Robertson said. "We don't need another $200 billion war to get rid of one, you know, strong-arm dictator."

I have been spending some of the morning looking at his website learning more about his background and how he may have stirred up such a remark.

I found his mission statement, short and concise, well put I think

PatRobertson.com - I want to be part of God's plan of what He is doing on earth, and I want to bring Him glory.

My question is do the 2 quotes work together? Absolutely not… I don't think part of God's plan here on earth involves a prominent figure of Faith publicly asking the United States to kill somebody who based on belief, may become a threat to the world.

This hurts my heart more than seeing people preaching in parks telling people they are going to hell. More than somebody who says I am going to hell becuase I used to drink too much.

I feel like this week Pat Robertson has switched his mission statement to: I thought I wanted to be part of God's plan of what He is doing on earth, and I thought I wanted to bring Him glory. But I guess I am looking for the glory…

    Once and a while I will catch a little of P. Robertson on his show 700 Club. I hope that's the same P. Robertson you are referring to. –

    Anyhow, I don't really listen to much of what he says, simply because he reminds me of this other guy that is on during late night television—Ummmm, not sure of the guy's name, but he claims to have been a preacher or something for more than 20 years, frosted gray hair that is perfectly set. Always wearing an extremely pressed suit. Ocean waves and sunshine in the background. Quoting scripture in hopes to gain a few bucks. This guy's main focus is how God wants us to live plentiful. That he wants us to have a big house, and tons of cash. He always quotes something like: I came so that all can live in abundance; or something similiar to that.

    I sit there and listen to him. Cringing on the inside. I think he's a liar.

    Okay, well I'm getting way off track here.

    I've seen quite a stir over this litte P. Robertson statement. However, I was not able to witness his thoughts.

    Bottom line–I don't trust T.V. Television to me is for purely entertainment reasons. Why Pat said what he said is beyond me. But frankly, I don't care because I don't know the guy. As far as I'm concerned, T.V. is a hoax. Poison.

    But the sickening part of it all is that I watch the crap.
