Our old friend Pat, whose prayer life includes asking God to strike down those he doesn’t like, is at it again. This time its against the citizens of Dover, PA. According to CNN Robertson included Dover in a rant on his 700 Club show. He said:

“I’d like to say to the good citizens of Dover: if there is a disaster in your area, don’t turn to God, you just rejected Him from your city,” Robertson said on his daily television show broadcast from Virginia, “The 700 Club.”

“And don’t wonder why He hasn’t helped you when problems begin, if they begin. I’m not saying they will, but if they do, just remember, you just voted God out of your city. And if that’s the case, don’t ask for His help because he might not be there,” he said.

So this raises some interesting questions. If 51% of the voters in Dover, PA voted to oust the school board members does that mean that God is going to strike down 100% of the citizens? Or only those who voted incorrectly? What about those who stayed home? They should have voted. Was not voting more or less of a sin that voting the wrong way? What about those who didn’t understand the ballot, or punched the ballot incorrectly? Maybe God won’t strike them down, just give then a serious case of the gout, or measles, or something.

I like Pat because he makes rational people look so, well, rational by comparsion.
