The 700 Club televangelist took a call recently from woman complaining that her church forbids dating or marriage—that even showing interest in the opposite sex is a “sin.”
Robertson told the woman to “run” from her church before everyone dies out.
“You know, those who are homosexual will die out because they don’t reproduce. You have to have heterosexual sex to reproduce,” he opined. “Same thing with that church— it’s doomed, it’s going to die out because it’s the most nonsensical thing I’ve heard in a long time.”
While I agree with Robertson that this woman needs to leave her church immediately (Actually leaving ALL churches might not be a bad plan), his contention that homosexuality will die out because they cannot produce offspring together is truly ignorant.
As just about everybody EXCEPT Pat Robertson already knows straight parents produce gay children and have been doing so since the beginning of time.
In fact if Robertson were to open a book that does not begin with the words "In the beginning.." he might realize that teh gays have existed well before the establishment of Christianity, Judaism, or even monotheism.
In fact they are the one constant that ties ALL societies, ethnicities, and past civilizations together.
Suggesting that gay folks will soon die out is like suggesting that Pat Robertson will soon start saying things that are not incredibly stupid.
Not gonna happen.
Just WHO does he think gave birth to each gay person?
ReplyDeleteI think in a backwards way, he is admitting that people are born gay.
DeleteAnd since they can't reproduce, they will become extinct. Dinosaurs became extinct, therefor dinosaurs were most likely gay. See how easy scientific research is?
Almost extinct myself,

I heart you, Mildred, you make me smile.
DeleteI heart you right back, 11:50

But wait, Pat-- you said yourself that it's not genetic and that the homo-sekshuls will roast like Christmas chestnuts for having chosen their despicable, agenda-driven lifestyle! And yet you also attributed their abominable sin to legions of queer agenda-driven pink-feather-boa demons!
ReplyDeleteWhich is it? I'm so freakin' scared!
How many more 'love offerings' must I send in order to ward off those salacious spirits of sodomy?
Thanks goodness Pat Robertson will soon die out. The world will then be a little bit kinder and smarter place.
ReplyDeleteForget about that book that begins "In the beginning...".
ReplyDeleteInstead, let us focus on "It was a dark and stormy night that Pat Robertson was born. Lightning flashed, thunder rolled and somewhere in the bowels of hell, the Devil was laughing."
That's the opening, the rest is yet to be written, but the plotline ultimately involves ultra-religious bigotry, money, politics, insanity, money, politics, televangelism, etc. -- a multitude of interesting sins. It is sure to be made into a movie or a 26-part miniseries.
Stupid, full of shit and fucking Nuts! Pat Robertson is all three!!
ReplyDeleteH/T George Carlin
what an ignorant POS and what does he think will happen to child molesters.
ReplyDeletePat Robertson hasn't been reproducing for a number of years, and he's not dead yet.
ReplyDeleteI often watch the first ten minutes or so of Robertson's 700 Club, and I assure you, claiming gays will die out because they can't reproduce is one of his more reasonable statements. There are several constants in his daily propaganda, 1) everything wrong in the world is either Obama's fault ('cause he's a Liberal), the Liberals' fault ('cause they're like Obama), the EPA's fault (a Liberal plot to destroy the world), or the ACLU's fault (another Liberal plot to destroy the world), and 2) if you don't have enough money, it's because you're not sending enough of it to Pat. If you were, God would better provide for you - and he has testimonials to prove that.
ReplyDeleteThe other thing that's fun to watch for is the featured bullshit of the week that clearly reveals who just bought Pat's favors for the week. A while back, he told his sheeples that those whiny Liberals were making all this stupid noise about fracking 'cause they don't even realize that fracking just involves pumping water into the ground, not the chemical brew they claim.
There's no end to it - in ten minutes he can snuff more logic and facts than you would believe. I'm sure he turns grifters everywhere green with envy.
Oh right, shock and awe I suspect the good Mr. Robertson set this up so he could go on his favorite rant. I guess it is possible he misunderstood a real call from someone in a cult who is in real danger. Either way, ugh.
ReplyDelete"...took a call recently from woman complaining that her church forbids dating or marriage—that even showing interest in the opposite sex is a 'sin.' "
Yeah, I think anyone who believes that ANYTHING about Pat's "show" isn't fake is being punk'd.
DeleteOnly a Christian fundamentalist could believe there's really a Gay Church that teaches heterosexuality is a sin.
Prolly the same kind of idiot who believes in the "Secret Gay AIDS death ring" that has a needle in it to infect straight people when they shake hands.

Let's just let them think this and maybe they'll shut up about it.
ReplyDeleteBreaking News:
ReplyDeleteSarah Palin, former Governor of Alaska gives birth to her seventh child. It's a Miracle say Palin! Americans are stunned because unlike her sixth birth of child Trig, where her baby bump was only visible the last sixteen days of her pregnancy, Newly birthed Mealticket Patriot Palin showed no sign of being in his mothers womb. Palin went on to say this birth by far was my easiest. It's like he wasn't there at all.
Well, according to Robertson's theory, gays should have died out many thousands of years ago.

ReplyDeleteUpdated Breaking News:
Sarah Palin, former Governor of Alaska and former mayor of Wasilla has given birth to her seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth children. She will name them Ruth, Aaron, Williams, and A-Rod. "I just hit a grand slam!", said the former Republican Vice-Presidential candidate. "It's not every day that someone gives birth to quadrupeds!"
Dr. Christine B. Johnson, Palin's obstetrician and veterinarian, reports that the children all weighed exactly 17 pounds and 11 ounces each at birth, and are on a strictly vegetarian diet of word salad.
George Zimmerman, the children's father, said he only slept with Ms. Palin once, because he was in imminent fear for his life, being threatened by the entire Palin family, including patriarch Chuck, Trig, Bristol with her shirt off, and Track in a thong dress, at an Anchorage birthday party several months ago.
Bill Cosby declined to comment on the news.
Poor dementia and stupid filled Pat.
ReplyDelete"..took a call recently from woman complaining that her church forbids dating or marriage—that even showing interest in the opposite sex is a 'sin.'"
If he was any kind of religious scholar who was interested in the teaching his followers history, Pat would have told about the numerous religious sects that appear, and disappear, like these. One of the more famous American sects was the Shakers, known for their beautiful, simply designed furniture. The Shakers were not homosexual, but they kept sexes separate and did not believe in sexual relationships. And yes, the group eventually did die out from lack of followers.
Not quite- there are 2 women and 1 man left in Maine.
Delete“You know, those who are homosexual will die out because they don’t reproduce. You have to have heterosexual sex to reproduce,” he opined.
ReplyDeleteI think what Pat Robertson meant is that a gay couple pairing only with each other can't reproduce.
Sure, a lesbian couple can have a donor sperm implant in one of the couple's womb, and can give birth - perhaps, if genetics allow, giving birth to a child who is gay. Ya never know...
And a gay male couple can adopt. That's reproduction of a sort. Or, transgender men... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2836374/Male-pregnancy-figures-reveal-54-MEN-gave-birth-Australia-past-12-months.html
I can just imagine what Pat Robertson has to say about that last story!
A woman I used to work with gave birth a few months ago to a beautiful baby girl. She is a lesbian, living with another woman who has a young son (not sure of the history of that birth).
ReplyDeleteThis woman wanted a child and so did a friend of hers who happens to be a gay man. I'm not sure how the impregnation was accomplished (the traditional way or with the help of some medical professionals), but they both have their little bundle of joy and they're all one big giant happy family.
Sorry to burst your bubble of ignorant insanity, Paddy Boy, but there are many ways to accomplish something if you want it badly enough!
