assholeofday:Pat Robertson, Asshole of the Day for March 29, 2014by TeaPartyCat (Follow @TeaPartyCat)Pat Robertson hates many things, but gay people might be the top on his list. And when I say Pat Robertson hates them, of course I mean that Pat will claim that he’s a nice guy and that God hates these things.And for Pat’s latest discussion of gays, he pulls a real doozy by bringing Jesus into it. Now there isn’t one instance where Jesus condemns or even mentions gays. Not one. But Pat has an answer for this— all the gay couples of Jesus’ time would have been stoned to death, so he wouldn’t have to:“I think you got to remember from the Bible, if you look carefully at the Bible what would have happened in Jesus’ time if two men decided they wanted to cohabit together, they would have been stoned to death,” Robertson said. “So Jesus would not have baked them a wedding cake nor would he have made them a bed to sleep in because they wouldn’t have been there. But we don’t have that in this country here so that’s the way it is.” (Robertson’s claim that Jesus would never have encountered a same-sex couple is a matter of debate.)Robertson added: “Ladies and gentlemen, I think we have to recognize what I said a few years ago, at that point homosexual marriage was condemned, homosexuality itself was considered a pathology and now those that are practicing that activity have turned and become the oppressors of those who hold deeply-held religious points of view, the tables have turned.”“What is it about gays? What is it about abortion? Have you ever thought why they’re on the forefront right now? Both of them deny the reproduction of human species,” Robertson said, adding that homosexuality is “a meaningless exercise because it doesn’t go anywhere.”“The Devil is trying to say, ‘I’m going to destroy your progeny any way I can. If you will kill your babies, that’s fine, I’m with you; if you will deny the chance of having babies, that’s fine too; but I want to destroy your opportunities to reproduce,’” he said. “It’s a very serious thing and we’re not talking about it, and we need to as a society, we have to realize where the attack is coming because it is definitely an attack.”If it seems like Pat Robertson is saying that things were better when gays were stoned to death, you’re not alone. It sure sounds like that. Now he doesn’t come right out and say we should be putting gays to death today, but then he goes and lumps them in as part of the Devil’s plan to try to destroy man’s progeny.And the idea that Jesus would have been OK with stoning gay couples to death? So Jesus would stop the stoning of a woman for adultery but let a gay couple be put to death? Does that sound like Jesus? Not to me. And I’m guessing that many Christians today don’t think Jesus would allow that.Pat Robertson has a very low opinion of God. The God of Pat Robertson claims to be loving, but is petty and vindictive and mean and homophobic and sexist. The God of Pat Robertson will send earthquakes and hurricanes and terrorists because he’s upset about two gay men having sex, even though there will be hundreds and even thousands of straight victims. The God of Pat Robertson will condemn nice people because they would not persecute and oppress gay people.So, for making God out to be every bit as hateful and mean as he is, Pat Robertson is the Asshole of the Day.It is Pat Robertson’s sixth time as Asshole of the Day.
