The Global Warming tipping point

pat_robertson.jpg

I'm a Skeptic.
I love James Randi.
I've read "State of Fear" and agree with it completely.

But I have never been more convinced that "Global Warming" was nothing but total and completly inane gobbledygook than when I heard today that "Pat Robertson now believes in Global Warming because apparently Pat has discovered that in August - Stay with me here - "its hot outside".

Sorry Al Gore. When a Conservative media preacher starts signing on to your pet scientific theory, that's the "kiss of death" for that theory if you ask me. I'm not sure that Pat believes in Dinosaurs, that men can fly or if the earth is really round or hollow, but he's suddenly gosh darn sure that "its hot outside and its all your fault sinner! now repent!"

Poor Al. It looks like he's going to have to find yet another "new gig"...

Stay tuned. I have a feeling that in December that Al Gore will discover that parts of Canada are suddenly and inexplicably cold and dark, that lake water hardens with a thick opaque covering that is hard to penetrate and that the land is often covered with a mysterious white substance that causes lawns to die and your extremities to go numb if you dont cover yourself when you go outside. Canadian Municipalities and homeowners are often forced to spend thousands of dollars to remove this toxic substance from roads and highways. This toxic scourge, called "winter" by aboriginal Canadians, must be stopped before it comes to your town.

I guess that for an out of work politician, theres always work that you can "scare up" from somewhere if you really work hard at it.

Gawd. Somebody shoot me. Or him. One or the other, I don't care. This guy was already a zit on the butt of Christianity. Now he's a festering zit on the hemorrhoids of humanity.

I'm a Christian, and I simply can't fathom how anyone, no matter how deaf, dumb, blind or completely friggin' brain-dead, could consider Pat with anything less than utter contempt.

He's the first reasonable argument for mercy-killing I've ever encountered. Did I just say that?

To Splashman;

Your a Christian?

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.
-Galatians 5:22-23

Gimme a break, Frank. You're the one that chose the subject matter, and it sure wasn't due to your fawning admiration of "just Pat".

Daniel, the subject is Pat. Have you mailed that Bible reference to him? Along with Galatians 5:19-21? God is not only a God of love; he is a God of justice. I'll leave the justice to God, but I won't suffer a fool, no matter how well-intentioned. You sound like one of those who defended Jim & Tammy Faye Bakker: excusing all in the name of Christian forgiveness. Gag.

If you took my "mercy-killing" hyperbole seriously, that's your problem. For the sake of those born without a sense of humor, I'll restate my opinion in no uncertain terms: Pat should be put out to pasture before he further blackens God's name.
