As for history - let's see if I can get this straight: the Haitians made a pact with the devil to get rid of French colonialism. Does that mean that Americans also made a pact with the devil to get rid of the English? Are we also doomed to eternal suffering because of it? Are the September 11 terrorist attacks, the financial crisis, the reign of Cheney-Bush and all the other ills we've experienced caused by our pact with the devil? Have we really gone to hell in a hand-basket?
I say to hell with Pat Robertson!
I think you're being a bit mild. The degree of despotism passing for current events is nightmarish. Pick a point on the compass and look up. There before you will be another jackal opportunist selling someone's flesh for profit or selling out to those who do. But, I think when one's life's work is supposed to be about God, and they can spread ignorance and hate like this, it summons the question as to whether they themselves are not indeed on the other team.
