The powerful have for untold centuries claimed to know what the gods want. The advantage to that strategy is no one has to worry about in such being showing up and setting the record straight.

It''s true, many powerful servants of God have lost credibility and violated the sacred trust entrusted to them. A worst case for me being the little girl who testified a Catholic Priest told her "Let me show you what it feels like to have God inside you." That''s disgusting ...

Pat Robertson''s support of pro-choice, multi-marriage Rudy Giuliani is not only sleeping with the enemy of his conscious but demonstrates the low level Right Wing Republicans are willing to sink to in order to win the next Presidential Election! America beware, everything is on the table as they say!

Robertson has frequent chats with God and likely knows that Giuliani will be the new president. This gives Giuliani an unfair advantage because he will have a direct path to God. The other player might as well toss in their cards. The show is over.

Evangelical history will describe Robertson as the second coming of Nostradamus or maybe even Moses.

The problem with the last two presidential elections, is that America voted for their salvation, not for a man to become their nation''s leader. Through lies, deception and like thieves in the night, voters bought in to that old medicine man road side show, not once but twice! As for Pat Robertson, he realizes his days are running out. Seeing what happen to Fallwell, probably has him a bit spooked too. It''s never to late to change and accept and love your fellow man. Besides after federal investigators get finished with Richard Roberts and ORU, they more than likely are going to look for smoke from other such institutions. Come clean now while you still can and support the most electable ''cause if they win they can also pardon. We live in a democracy and hopefully people will remind themselves, that we are voting for a leader, chief, top dog, president, not our eternal state of being. God is not going to send you to Hell for voting for the wrong person. Rudy being endorsed by Pat Robertson, may be the only non-deviding gift this nation has seen in nearly 8 years. Peace!

No, FeelFree1. I provided the commentary simply as an alternative to the blind absolute adherence you preach. It''s not from someone who is for or against the movie. That''s all. Now you''re trying to use it, well, I''m not sure what your point is.
But, since you''re so gullible, I''ve decided to make a movie about how George W. Bush causes every tsunami. Yeah, he has a big red button hidden under his desk and whenever he''s in a bad mood he just presses it. And the proof? I know someone who knows someone that saw him near his desk on that day, and hey, the deadliest tsunami just happened to occur while he was the President! That''s too much for a coincidence.
So, standby, the movie should be finished in a couple hours. Then I''ll stick it on the Internet where it can begin attracting flies as soon as possible.

How would you like it? Suppose I parade a dozen people you have never met, in front of a judge, charging you with one crime after another. And the burden of proof is not upon them, it''s upon YOU to actually PROVE that you didn''t do these things. And no sooner do you reveal that you can''t, then this becomes the basis for MORE accusations. They just keep shoveling as fast as you can speak. Soon, the court explodes with accusations against you and no one wants to even listen to you. Finally, you are ushered out of the court room while THEY continue agreeing among themselves how all these charges MUST be true, since you can''t immediately PROVE with bare hands that they are not. So, how do you like it? Is this what American''s have fought for? Because that is exactly what you are doing, and you believe that people are supposed to just climb aboard because the accused is big gov''t and big business. I guess it''s OK to steal from rich people, too.

People who claim to speak to or for a god, and fervetly believed it, used to be put into mental hospitals.

Giuliani must be willing to accept the endorsemeny of any fool if he will accept the endorsement of Robertson. Sen. Grassley should insist the finances of Robertson be examined for fraud.

Intellectually, it has the same caliber as Chariots of the Gods from the 70''s that sold well, but ended up in the landfill. Only this time, it''s threaded with hatred. The entire idea is insulting. On and on and on, just like those cult leaders - EXACTLY like a cult leader who first only wants you to get on the bus, then just go for a drive, then just stay the night, on and on and on.
No, YOU believe this trash. Not me. I can''t believe there are people out there that STILL believe Cheney was behind the 9/11 attacks, fearmongering suspicions about, for crying out loud, big US Corporations that indoctrinate everyone but you to join them in making millions. God help us. It''s not the insanity of a few that scares me, it when these ideas actually stick in someone''s brain and fester that scares me. I know there are deadly pathogens out there, it''s a lot more scary when they begin killing people in hospitals. And if you don''t think ideas can kill, then how can good ideas help people? For decades millions upon millions of people were destroyed in the Soviet Union, because of an idea. The Zeitgeist Movie is just as stupid and destructive. Instead of asking everyone else what they think, why don''t you do some intelligent research for once. Do you even read books? Oh sorry, I forgot. Those are all published by huge corporations, too. God help us.

I sure would like to get past the days when Journalist and news media would quit refering to Pat Robertson as a Christian leader. The guy is a quack on a good day. How could a so called Christian leader back a candidate who is completely contrary to the fundamental beliefs of Christians? If you are going to refer to Christian leaders, I vote for Dr. Dobson, or someone who works to protect the family.
