Any public figure will inevitably make verbal mistakes although he seems to have more than his share.
His problem is that he is impassioned, yet is not quite able to articulate his ideas.
The trick is to not make televised public appearances and to kill all those that witness you making a mistake.

Witches are supposed to practice lesbianism as part of their devotion to Satan and corruption of all things good.
Remember, witches receive their powers directly from the Dark lord. Harry Potter and friends will be hell bound after their services are no longer needed.
Witchcraft is bad kiddies.
I didn't really read all his quotes and he does have several questionable opinions, but meh.
The world did end in 1987, wasn't that around the time that rap music and grunge and Kurt POS Kobane or whatever rose from the slime?

"It'll bring about terrorist bombs; it'll bring earthquakes, tornadoes, and possibly a meteor."
How strangely specific...

Now that I think about it most of the female self-proclaimed witches I've met were also Bisexuals. It could be the error of small sample I suppose, but we are talking double digits here, and most made a point of telling everyone about both of those interests within minutes of meeting them.
I'm not saying I agree with Pat Robertson, but I have noticed a significant correlation there.
There also seems to be quite a correlation between someone having both of those interests and being into BDSM.

It's simply because of things like this that most of the witches you meet are bisexual =P
Witchcraft's general status as a spiritual thing that empowers women, that was also heavily oppressed by a masculine-oriented religion, means that it appeals to women who feel opressed, or at odds with society's general consensus of how they should act.
In short, it is often a sign of a desire to rebel. If you are a lesbian or bisexual, you often feel persecuted for it, and thus you tend to look for things rejected as 'against the norm' by society, as they will most likely be things that you can approach. Witchcraft and Wicca, with a focus on secrecy; feminine values like nature, growth, and nurturing; and a general approval of matriarchal aspects, appeal to women who don't want to conform to Pat Robertson's idea of what a woman should be (dominated and as a second class citizen).
I've met a few witches and wiccans, and though they're not all bisexual/lesbian the vast majority are or have had experiences of that nature in the past. Most of the ones that did also did make the point of effectively 'showing it off' as wormwood found. I'm not sure, but I'm pretty certain it's a type of self-defence mechanism against the fear that they'll be looked down on as a woman. Usually those same ones often come with a tonne of mental issues too though, be wary...
It's all about psychology peeps!

It's amazing what you can find in a commune...  It's also amazing how people can see other people as being so much inferior to themselves. |

I didn't say anything about inferiority or superiority.
I simply noted a constellation of interests that many of my witch acquaintances had in common.

patn robertson is not a operson. he is simply an interior lifeform.

Post by Thlaylie on Dec 9, 2010 6:52:58 GMT
Interior lifeform means he prefers to live inside?

It's pretty obvious he's definitely inside something.
HINT: His own ass.
Btw, I do not think myself superior to anything or anyone, bar chavs, cos they're all not really human anyhoo.

Observations:
Ignorance to:
Other religions
His own God
What is happening in his country
Activist groups true purposes'.
Refusal to believe that society, people, morals, understanding, and ways of thinking change. If he keep living in the past then he will lose power and any hope helping shape the world in a way he deems fit. True power is the power to adapt.
Hard headed as hell. There are people that if something is not what they believe in then it's wrong. I can deal with that. But this guy takes it to the next level. He says that it is wrong, evil, and against the will of God.
To restate cause it is very obvious from all of his quotes, he does not know anything about the ways his god works. Of course that is open to interpretation as no one truly knows, but he states that he takes his form of reasoning from the Bible. I think he needs to lay off the Old Testament. (again, unable to embrace change)
