Pat Robertson On Earthquake In Haiti: They Made A Pact With The Devil!

pat robertsonWhat an absolute religious-fanatical tool Pat Robertson is.

A 7.o earthquake struck Haiti on Tuesday: a major catastrophe for one of the world’s poorest countries. With no exact estimate on the number dead and wounded, ambassador Raymond Alcide Joseph told CNN:

“The only thing I can do now is pray and hope for the best.”

One would get a completely different reaction on this horrific disaster if they asked TV evangelist/complete delusional douche, Pat Robertson. Taking a typical page from the extreme religious right, Robertson believes the horrors in Haiti occurred because:

“They got together and made a pact with the devil!”

Addressing his viewers on the 700 Club, Robertson elaborated on the Haitian revolt against the French in the 19th century:

“They were under the heel of the French…and they got together and swore a pact to the Devil. They said, we will serve you if you’ll get us free from the French.”

Robertson concluded that ever since then (the Haitians, by the way, were revolting against slavery), they’ve been cursed by one thing after another. With the typical mentality of the extreme religious right, I’m very surprised that Pat Robertson didn’t blame the devastating earthquake in Haiti on all the homosexuals in the world.

Pat Robertson  you seem to have all the answers. Now go away you sad, little man–we don’t need your smug, faux religious superiority in this sad time of crisis.

    So why spend your time repeating what Robertson says, and posting the video, if you just want him to go away? Don’t think the Devil is real??? The Exorcist story is true, right? Boo!
