God is angry with Pat Robertson

Post by Alyeska »

Taken from my local newspaper, this is an AP story.
Virginia Beach, Va-
Religious broadcaster, Pat Roberston said Thursday he has prostate cancer and will undergo surgery to remove his prostate gland.

Roberston, 72, made the announcement on his “700 Club” television program. He told viewers he was diagnosed shortly after Christmas and tests show the cancer has not spread.

“I am going into surgery on Monday and I would appreciate your prayers,” said Robertson, whose Christian Broadcasting Network is based in Virginia Beach. He said he hoped to be back to a full schedule within two weeks.

Roberston said his later brother, Atlanta stockbroker A. Willis “Tad” Robertson, also had prostate cancer. “Tad” Robertson died of lung cancer last year.
I wonder if Pat can see the message. :twisted:
"If the facts are on your side, pound on the facts. If the law is on your side, pound on the law. If neither is on your side, pound on the table."

"The captain claimed our people violated a 4,000 year old treaty forbidding us to develop hyperspace technology. Extermination of our planet was the consequence. The subject did not survive interrogation."

Of course not. If a gay person has prostate cancer he will conclude that God is punishing him. But if he has prostate cancer, he will conclude that God is "testing" him.

Oh, come on. He'll work the liberal media, feminist, gay-agenda conspiracy to undermine Judeo-Christian morality in somehow. Either that or end-times prophecy.

It would serve him right. We're talking about an asshole who got on TV and used 9/11 as an excuse to attack gays and lesbians again.

I'd rather see him live after removal of his prostate, since there's an excellent chance that the surgery will render him impotent for the rest of his life (and I'd hope that he'd last a long, long time in that state.)

Of course, I can already tell you what the response from the Pentehostiles would be to this one: "Satan has obviously afflicted him to prevent the Lord's work from being done." Oh, how I loathe those assholes... :evil:

I hope he survives too. In great pain and diminished mental capacity. And speaking of assholes, how is he going to talk out of his if he's shitting in a colostomy bag?

I think he's just going to use his prostate cancer as an excuse to attack gays, feminists, pagans, and the ACLU again.

"They gave it to me!"

After that, he'll probably use it as a sign of the apocalypse.

Well, it looks like he's gonna get the good old anal probe, and we can only hope that they "accidentally" tear his anus. :D

Oh well. I guess all the sub-human lowlifes in the world can't die at once.

I don't suppose the worthless fuckwad is intelligent enough to recognize the irony in his constant bashing of science and secularism, after having his life saved through medical science ...
