How this guy remains a pillar of the supposed ‘Moral Majority’ is beyond me, so I present to you the finest moments of Pat Robertson:<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know, I don\u2019t know about this doctrine of assassination, but if he thinks we\u2019re trying to assassinate him, I think that we really ought to go ahead and do it. It\u2019s a whole lot cheaper than starting a war \u2026 and I don\u2019t think any oil shipments will stop.\u201d \u2013 Pat on The 700 Club on his idea of foreign policy re: Venezuela\u2019s president<\/p>\n

“We have a court that has essentially stuck its finger in God’s eye and said we’re going to legislate you out of the schools. We’re going to take your commandments from off the courthouse steps in various states. We’re not going to let little children read the commandments of God. We’re not going to let the Bible be read, no prayer in our schools. We have insulted God at the highest levels of our government. And then we say, “Why does this happen?” Well, why it’s happening is that God Almighty is lifting his protection from us.”- Explaining on his 700 Club cable TV program why the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, had occurred two days earlier<\/p>\n

“There is no such thing as separation of church and state in the Constitution. It is a lie of the Left and we are not going to take it anymore.” \u2013Pat Robertson, address to his American Center for Law and Justice, November, 1993.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Constitution of the United States, for instance, is a marvelous document for self-government by Christian people. But the minute you turn the document into the hands of non-Christian and atheistic people they can use it to destroy the very foundation of our society.\u201d \u2013 The 700 Club, Dec. 30, 1981<\/p>\n

“How can there be peace when drunkards, drug dealers, communists, atheists, New Age, worshipers of Satan, secular humanists, oppressive dictators, greedy moneychangers, revolutionary assassins, adulterers, and homosexuals are on top?\u201d \u2013 The New World Order, (1991) p.227<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is interesting, that termites don\u2019t build things, and the great builders of our nation almost to a man have been Christians, because Christians have the desire to build something. He is motivated by love of man and God, so he builds. The people who have come into [our] institutions [today] are primarily termites. They are into destroying institutions that have been built by Christians, whether it is universities, governments, our own traditions, that we have\u2026. The termites are in charge now, and that is not the way it ought to be, and the time has arrived for a godly fumigation.\u201d \u2013 New York Magazine, August 18, 1986<\/p>\n

“If the widespread practice of homosexuality will bring about the destruction of your nation, if it will bring about terrorist bombs, if it\u2019ll bring about earthquakes, tornadoes and possibly a meteor, it isn\u2019t necessarily something we ought to open our arms to.” \u2013 Pat Robertson, The 700 Club television program, August 6, 1998, on the occasion of the Orlando, Florida, Gay Pride Festival<\/p>\n

\u201cYou say you\u2019re supposed to be nice to the Episcopalians and the Presbyterians and the Methodists and this, that, and the other thing. Nonsense, I don\u2019t have to be nice to the spirit of the Antichrist. I can love the people who hold false opinions but I don\u2019t have to be nice to them.\u201d \u2013The 700 Club, January 14, 1991<\/p>\n

\u201cIndividual Christians are the only ones really\u2014and Jewish people, those who trust God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob\u2013are the only ones that are qualified to have the reign, because hopefully, they will be governed by God and submit to Him.\u201d \u2013Defending his stance that only Christians and Jews are fit to hold public office, The 700 Club, January 11, 1985<\/p>\n

\u201cIf anybody understood what Hindus really believe, there would be no doubt that they have no business administering government policies in a country that favors freedom and equality.\u201d \u2013The New World Order, page 219<\/p>\n

\u201cYou don\u2019t dare say America or Christianity is a better way of living. When I said during my presidential bid that I would only bring Christians and Jews into the government, I hit a firestorm. \u2018What do you mean?\u2019 the media challenged me. \u2018You\u2019re not going to bring atheists into the government? How dare you maintain that those who believe the Judeo-Christian values are better qualified to govern America than Hindus and Muslims?\u2019 My simple answer is, \u2018Yes, they are.\u2019\u201d \u2013 The New World Order, 1991<\/p>\n

\u201cThere will never be world peace until God\u2019s house and God\u2019s people are given their rightful place of leadership at the top of the world. How can there be peace when drunkards, drug dealers, communists, atheists, New Age worshipers of Satan, secular humanists, oppressive dictators, greedy money changers, revolutionary assassins, adulterers, and homosexuals are on top?\u201d \u2013The New World Order, p.227<\/p>\n

\u201c[The] feminist agenda is not about equal rights for women. It is about a socialist, anti-family political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians.\u201d \u2013 Fundraising letter from Pat Robertson that was an in-kind contribution to the Iowa Committee to Stop ERA, as reported in The Washington Post, August 23, 1993<\/p>\n

\u201cMany of those people involved with Adolph Hitler were Satanists, many of them were homosexuals\u2013the two things seem to go together.\u201d \u2013 \u201cThe 700 Club,\u201d 1\/21\/93, ADL report on Religious Right, page 131<\/p>\n

“A Supreme Court ruling is not the Law of the United States. The law of the United Sates is the Constitution, treaties made in accordance with the Constitution, and laws duly enacted by the Congress and signed by the president. And any of those things I would uphold totally with all of my strength, whether I agreed with them or not\u2026. I am bound by the laws of the United States and all 50 states \u2026 [but] I am not bound by any case or any court to which I myself am not a party\u2026. I don\u2019t think the Congress of the United States is subservient to the courts\u2026. They can ignore a Supreme Court ruling if they so choose.” \u2013 Pat Robertson, speaking to a group of Washington Post writers, as reported in the Washington Post, June 27, 1986<\/p>\n

“Many observers say that AIDS is the hammer and gun of the homosexual movement, an effective vehicle to propel the homosexual agenda throughout every phase of our society.” – Pat Robertson<\/p>\n

“I think “one man, one vote,” just unrestricted democracy, would not be wise. There needs to be some kind of protection for the minority which the white people represent now, a minority, and they need and have a right to demand a protection of their rights.” – Pat Robertson, The 700 Club television program, March 18, 1992, suggesting that South African white people’s votes ought to count more than other votes because they are in the minority<\/p>\n

“Just like what Nazi Germany did to the Jews, so liberal America is now doing to the evangelical Christians. It’s no different. It is the same thing. It is happening all over again. It is the Democratic Congress, the liberal-based media and the homosexuals who want to destroy the Christians. Wholesale abuse and discrimination and the worst bigotry directed toward any group in America today. More terrible than anything suffered by any minority in history.”<\/p>\n
