Robertson: Gays Can Become Straight If They ‘Start Acting Like Men’

Posted by | July 30, 2015 18:00 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly Religion


A 700 Club viewer wanted to know if God could “take away this same-sex attraction” and hoped Pat Robertson could help.

Confusing sexual orientation with gender identity, Robertson said that his network once profiled the transformation of an “absolutely gorgeous” woman who “was a man” until “the Lord touched him, changed him and now he is marrying and has some children and has a very happy life.”

…Robertson continued: “Somebody was asking me for counseling the other day and said, ‘I’ve got this son and he was effeminate from the time he was young and now he says he’s gay.’ And I said to her, ‘Does he want to be a girl?’ And she said ‘no,’ and I said, ‘Well, if he doesn’t want to be a girl, basically he wants to be a man, and if he wants to be a man, there’s no reason that he can’t start acting like one.’ God can take care of this.”

    This douche obviously knows nothing at all about gay people. He thinks all gay men are effeminate, and all lesbians are “manly.” He could be surrounded by gay people, men and women, and not know it. And who in the hell would come to him for counseling anyway?

      Self loathing is a thing and seems to be common with these types.

        and the self loathing gay kids these types are hurting

          As family members, educators, mentors, and adults in these teens lives we need to be observant and ask them often how they are. We need to let them know we care and they are not alone.

      How about Josh Duggar for counseling on the proper way to molest young girls.

      I would love to see a one on one conversation between robertson and Caitlyn Jenner

    How do you act like a man in your world, beg for money from rubes, spout hate and filth, threaten people, wish for death and destruction on people, racism…no thanks old man.

    When this guy grows a brain and learn how to develop some sort of empathy, then I will think maybe there is a chance to change a person’s sexual identity.

    Robertson used to be unintentionally funny, but now he’s just a rich, old, and sad looking little dude.

    Christian conservative males can become men when they start acting humane.

    Show us on the doll where the Lord touched you.

      i upvoted you. now, i must so ask for forgivness! you suck big!

    It is funny how these “religious types” always feel they can fix a problem, you can’t tell why a person is the way they are, just leave them be. Is what they are doing affecting your life in any way? Then shut the hell up!

    If it’s that easy, why doesn’t Pat Robertson “cure” the pedophilia that runs rampant in the Catholic Church?

    • bpollen July 31st, 2015 at 05:18

      Southern Baptists don’t care ’bout no fish-eatin’ Papists!

    If Pat tells us the “cure” for homosexuality perhaps he can also tell us the cure for lunacy which is his affliction all of his life.

    • Chinese Democracy August 1st, 2015 at 01:12

      the cure for homosexuality is mike huckabee naked

    What sort of lunatic would ask Robertson for counseling?
    I think he just makes this shit up as he stumbles along.

  11. bpollen July 31st, 2015 at 05:22

    Acting like a man… like Ted Haggard, perhaps?

  12. dave-dr-gonzo July 31st, 2015 at 09:30

    I would call him a senile, religiously insane old coot – if, that is, he weren’t a multimillionaire using fear and disinformation to bamboozle gullible, well-intentioned, and mostly low-income, low-information viewers.

    If everything that Robertson preaches is true, there truly must be a very special vacancy in the seventh or eighth circle of Hell that he will soon occupy.

    i would love to line up 10 gay men, who are all in the military and dressed in uniform and ask patsy, “now isn’t this what you call real men?”

  14. illinoisboy1977 July 31st, 2015 at 10:43

    He’s all confused, again. Go take your medication, Pat. So many old people are of the impression that all gays are “sissies”. No, Pat. Gays are attracted to someone of the same gender. It’s not a disorder or a defect in their character. It’s a preference that’s hardwired into them, the same way an appreciation for women is hardwired into you.

    • cwazycajun August 1st, 2015 at 10:55

      no pats appreciation is for money,,and fear and hate monger to gain more of their money..if his god even needed to take care of somebody it would be him and i dont mean in a comfortable sorta way..I mean full out crazed driven jizzin and piss all over his guests all the while screamin about how chicken are takin over the world and colonel sanders is the reaL ANTI CHRIST…..now that would be fun to see

  15. Chinese Democracy August 1st, 2015 at 01:11

    being honest with yourself and others .. and coming out in a world with people like him in it, Is about as good a test of what a real man is as any in my opinion.

  16. Chinese Democracy August 1st, 2015 at 14:04
