usually christian fundamentalists when the term is used in an American context.

6. I fully support the fundies marching to war...
Can't wait to see what happens when they hit the Atlantic. Maybe God will part the Atlantic, or pull the walking-on-water trick. Or, maybe not. Won't know till you try, right?

Hey, fundies.... Got faith? Then get marching, and make sure you carry you carry a really heavy pack.

glug glug glug...

7. I hope it can't happen.
The muslims have a great insurance policy - oil.

An all-out war would disrupt the oil supply and bring modern civilization to a grinding halt.

However, if Robertson wants to grab a sword and swim over to the Holy Land...

10. Ya see, Rosie wasn't so wrong .
Radicals of religion are dangerous. Now some will say Jesus was a radical. Yes, he was. He didn't advocate kiling and torture though.

9. Good idea.
Edited on Fri Sep-22-06 05:16 AM by CJCRANE
Send all of Pat Robertson's followers over to the Middle East to duke it out with the fundies over there.



Two extra points:

a) they'll probably find they have a lot in common
b) I wonder how many of them would sign up for the "new crusades" when the time came
and how many would have "other priorities"?
c) Shrubster may have other ideas seeing as he only likes to attack the "bad muslims". The "good muslims" that bankroll him (like the ones in Saudi Arabia and UAE) are off limits.

19. Actually I believe they were all planning to gather in a single spot...
near Jerusalem. Talk about a target! Good thing Israelis were smart and kept them out.

11. A holy war? Interesting. Assuming we do go into bibilical holy wars,
why does America with the American flag have to represent the Christian side? Why can't these radical Christians just create their little cells like Al Qaeda, buy the plane ticket and fly to the Middle East to fulfill their destiny and leave the rest of us alone?

If their faith is so strong, why do they have to hijack the nuclear power and respect of this country?

17. Robertson is insane
I'll bet his son Gordon, who is now running the show for the most part, cringes whenever his dad starts going off like this.

I'm glad that most americans recognize that Pat is a loon.
