Pat Robertson
Well I watched that video posted in response to Pat Robertson's quote that legalizing gay marriage would be the equivalent to legalizing sex with ducks. I wasn't familiar about who Pat Robertson is, so I of course googled him lol. I found this site:
http://www.geocities.com/CapitolHill/7027/quotes.html
It's pretty one-sided, but I was reading the quotes, and I was astonished at the things he has said and other religious and political figures have said about homosexuality. This quote angered me more than any other:
"Many of those people involved with Adolph Hitler were Satanists, many of them were homosexuals--the two things seem to go together."--Pat Robertson, "The 700 Club," 1/21/93
First of all, I have studied the Holocaust in depth, watched almost every movie and tv show about it, and even took a college class specifically about genocide with a focus on the Nazi Germany persecution of Jews and other minorities. There were only 2 known homosexuals in Hitlers inner circle, and they were both executed. One was Ernst Rohm, his second in command next to Himmler and Chief of the SA. The other I can't remember his name, but he was executed along with his wife because he was believed to be homosexual, and pictures of his wife in compromising positions with other women were exposed. It is believe they married to protect each other.
Anyways, there is no evidence that suggest that Rohm or the other guy (I swear I'm going to find his name lol) were satanists.
It's ridiculous when people with influence say things like these that are complete lies. It's really bad because people will jsut listen, and instead of looking up whether it's true or not for themselves, they will just take it as the truth.
What do you guys think?
Oh, this one should make any woman on this site angry:
"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."--Pat Robertson, "The 700 Club," 1/8/92
Any questions?

My best friend in the world sent me the funniest post card with a picture of two women hooking up, and below is a Pat Robertson quote:
'Feminism encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practise witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become Lesbians'
On the back my friend wrote FUCK YEAH!!!!! WOOHOO!!!!!

90 people get the swine flu, everyone wears masks; Millions of people get AIDs, no one wears rubbers.
Wow
so who are these satanist again?
Homosexuals were killed in the holocaust at the hands of Nazis and were made to wear pink triangles to identify themselves, maybe Pat Roberson needs a history lesson.

Just remind her that the difference in legalized marriage between two consenting adults versus adults and children, animals, cheesecake, whatever, is--drumroll-- CONSENT.

Oh, Pat Robertson
As someone raised watching 700 Club, I have learned to laugh at his ignorance. But let's not forget about some of the wise sayings of Dr. Jerry Falwell. A personal favorite--Gay folks would just as soon kill you as look at you.
I did have a humorous moment with Jerry Falwell though. I used to play trivia religiously, pun intended, and one week the answer to a question was Jerry Falwell. But it would have been too easy to simply write his name, so I add on.... Jerry Falwell, whose day of death can be celebrated on the Ides of May. Seeing as our trivia team all graduated from a Baptist college, the trivia host was quite amused by our extensive knowledge of when Jerry Falwell died. Nice.
The grass may be greener on the other side, but you still have to mow it.
