Robertson: Conservative Christians Must Be ‘In Charge Of This Planet’
Pat Robertson believes conservative Christians must “exercise dominion” over the world.
“God has made us in charge of this planet and He’s given us dominion and we’re supposed to exercise dominion,” Robertson said. “When the Christians exercise dominion, good things happen. When we surrender dominion, bad things happen. It’s happening in our country, we’ve got a president that thinks we should surrender dominion, that we should not be involved, that we should lead from behind and all of this stuff, and the world is just going to chaos all around.”
Conservative Christians, Robertson said, must fill Obama’s leadership vacuum: “All around you see these horrible breakouts. Why? Because the leaders aren’t leading. So, we have to lead. God has given us dominion, we have to do that.”

“All around you see these horrible breakouts. Why? Because the leaders aren’t leading. So, we have to lead…..”
So Pat, remind me what happened when Ivan the Terrible, Adolph Hitler, Benito Mussolini and Idi Amin led their countries. They were all leaders who led.

9/11 happened when right wing Christians and most conservatives, controlled the US government. 9/11 was a bad thing. But back then it was the it was the gay’s fault right.

In the words of Austin Powers – “Why won’t you die?”

Pat Robertson is the last person in the world, who needs to be talking about “being in charge” of anything. That asshole blamed the U.S. for 9/11, using the most vitriolic and asinine of rationales. I have NO respect for him.

” I have NO respect for him.” and you did before that?

Actually, no. Anyone who raises his hands in the air and spins stories about how a man with brain cancer is being healed, “right now”, in order to solicit funds, is a sham and a con-man.

Just following in the old time tent revival tradition of fleecing the rubes…this time without even giving them snake oil

the idea that Christians think they have some sort of mandate to rule is one of the most frightening things to hear. They have historically had a terrible track record in dealing with everything from indigenous populations to burning people alive for heresy or witchcraft, torturing people for non belief, converting at sword point, censoring scientific research, even keeping folks illiterate to prevent them from questioning interpretations of their bible as expounded by priests.
The entire dominion thing makes me shudder.

Christians comprise < 33 of the planet's population. Sorry, old bigot, the entire world is not yours, despite your entrenched belief that White, GOP, NRA, Capitalist, Muricun Jesus is actually in control of everything. And that's a damn good thing.

Maybe someone should tell dimbulb that christians are a minority on the planet….

He finally let it out–he is a dominionist. Anyone who does not fully know what Christian Dominionism is should google it. It is dictatorship by insane people who are both political fascists and religious maniacs. Glad Pat finally came clean.
