" Asking three justices to retire is not a threat!"...sure, right...but that is not exactly what he said!!!

In the other thread, I note that Pat, in his 'prayer' asks God to "lay a heavy hand upon them.." (YOU can go listen!)

of course he would never explicitly make a threat, nor would he explicitly ask God to smite 3 old men...but he DOES ask good Christians to "storm the gates of Heaven" with prayer, hoping to lobby God to 'quote' DO something 'unquote'. You read that any way you wish. I understand it to mean Pat doesn't particularly care whether God inspires these deluded old Justices to retire, or whether they all 'get called home' within days of each other.

Pat Robertson is NOT a genteel pacifist...he invokes biblical references to war on unbelievers and moral backsliders constantly. THe man seems to think that if enough 'good' people beg God for a favor, why, the Almighty will take notice and make sure we are not troubled by this blight on our judicial system any longer!

Remember the guy who shot the abortion doctor? Could there possibly be someone among Pat's listeners out there willing to 'help' God with this task?........hmmmmmmmmm.....but, clearly, 'ol Pat never made a threat, no sir!
