Below please find a note from a concerned mother to Pat Robertson sent on July 14, 2014 and read live on the air via the 700 Club:
“My son heard sounds that send painful shock-waves thru [sic] his body as I was praying for him and I called on the name of JESUS. My son said it felt like something hit him very hard in the stomach. I know this is not of God. He is a Christian. Can Christians be attacked by demons?”
You can read Mr. Robertson’s response here, followed by mine.
But this is what I actually meant:
Think what you want, Mr. Robertson. Believe what you want. It’s none of my business. “Mark of the Beast” is coming? Tarot Cards kill? Jesus invented aliens and dinosaurs? Fine. I don’t care. But you encouraged a mother to, at the very least, frighten her child. Worse, you encouraged her to ignore a potential illness. The child needs a doctor and probably a psychiatrist, too. Your “ministry” is encouraging the endangerment of a child. Therefore, fuck you very much, Mr. Robertson. Fuck you.
YES. all of this. Why isn’t the mother bringing her child to the doctor or ER?? and really, Pat? good job.
Eh. EH. EH!!!!!
