Pat Robertson has had problems for a long time. I've known that. I never watch The 700 Club, in large part because the guests he has on are often... heterodox at best. And he never questions them, even when they get into outright heresy or flatly contradict each other. He's also been known to make disparaging remarks about people who think orthodox doctrine is important and worth defending.
But when he gets into politics, he REALLY gives conservative Christians a bad name. And this "assassinate Chavez" thing is just the latest example. And NOW he's denying that he ever said "assassinate."
I know every group has its kooks. I just wish the ones on our side weren't so patently absurd--or so widely believed by people who don't know better (or who don't care to take the effort to test everything they hear from Christian TV).
EDIT: You've GOT to read Scrappleface on this topic. Never say we don't have a sense of humor.
