Forget flashy newcomers like Kevin Swanson or Gordon Klingenschmitt, ain't no young whippersnappers ever gonna out-goofy ol' Pat Robertson. As proof, consider his advice to "Tina," who emailed regarding her workplace quandary about people who insist on believing in strange magical things that just aren't true:
I read all the comments here, and I am saddened by the misguided approach of some comments. Why can people just not take to heart the Bible in Matthew 6:5-6. You would be happy if you knew those words.
Honestly, I was mowing grass one day, shooting the crap all over the place and they stood there yelling that shit at me. That was after they had walked, yes walked, 1/2 mile up my driveway, past the "No Tresspassing/No Hunting" signs. Needless to say, I was very careful to spray the grass their way.
My father is (very!) Hare Krishna; several years ago, he took some sacred vows. One of them was to not try to force his faith on others who are not receptive. Unfortunately, he seems to think there was an unspoken exception for immediate family. :-S
Fortunately, he has also realized that it wasn't going to fly with my (not-of-Indian-descent) sisters-in-law, so he's backed off a lot recently. Another reason why I love my SILs! :-)
I've read the bible cover to cover. It's mostly crap and contradicts itself a few hundred times. For every one useful part there's two dozen that would lead a person to be a worse human being, not a better one.
I gotta remember that!
My grandmother used to tell them the dog would bite, they might want to go away.
After he tastes it...

It is every bit as old as "What did the Buddha say to the hotdog vendor?"
"Make me one with everything."
I got the Tshirt. It says "I survived Catholic School."

Why do you care? On July 5 the Men from Planet X will laser all their Pink asses to a crispy brown anyway.
JWs get extra credit from Jesus for the long driveways.
At the Corporation of Evil, where I work, the only God is Mammon and the only prophet is Profit. No one talks about anything else.

It's God's plan.
I really think you should read that verse
