Pat Robertson Prays for the End of Pro-LGBT Churches

Local embarrassment and always reliable gay-hater Pat Robertson has had another case of diarrhea of the mouth and shown himself to be the hate filled ass that he truly is through yet another mean spirited and nasty attack on churches that don't treat gays like human garbage. His target is the Episcopal Church because of its recent policy changes that will make the church even more gay affirming. Amazing who following the gospel message of loving others sets a modern day Pharisee like Robertson into foaming at the mouth like a rabid dog. In my opinion, if there is a God, he/she/it has a special place in Hell for people like Robertson. Here are some highlights via Change.org:

Last week the U.S. Episcopal Church voted to end its moratorium on ordaining gay and lesbian bishops, affirming the dignity and self-worth of millions of gay and lesbian religious folk around the country. Pat Robertson, of course, couldn't let this moment slide by without offering a bit of tactless whining. For Robertson, the fact that the Episcopal Church moved closer toward fully embracing LGBT people into their ranks means that he's now praying for the Church's demise. Here's what Robertson himself said on an episode of the 700 Club this week:

They have lost their way. They were taken over by this controversy having to do with same-sex marriage and the ordination of homosexual bishops. Once they got into that morass and lost their way from scriptural teaching, they didn't have much denomination left... And there will be no tears in my life if the Episcopal Church of America just quietly goes out of business

Robertson's popularity has tanked in recent years, and really, one has to ask if it's any wonder. This type of mean, vile commentary doesn't send a message of hope, and certainly doesn't do Robertson any favors in selling his religion. Who wants to be a member of a church that spends so much of it's time preaching hate, and builds its foundation on praying for the demise of other religions?

Personally, I suspect that history will view the Episcopal Church's pro-gay stance far more favorably than hate merchants like Pat Robertson who some day will likely be viewed in the same light as grand wizards of the Klu Klux Klan. The man is a truly nasty piece of work.
