Yay!! Pat Robertson strikes AGAIN! Boo-YAH!!

Pat Robertson is a whole bunch of bricks short of the full chimney. But, hey, on the good side he does consistently offer up to the world and all of humanity a hearty flow of religious bullshit that is sure to tickle your funny bone and bring a full smile to your face. Thank GOD Pat never made it very far in politics.


Here, Pat Robertson suggests his theory of what could have happened to a plane...and then he adds...well, just watch it. He gets totally random and it is hilarious.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pgJNb6u3t0Q


Awww...Pat reminisces the good old times in the Bible where gays could be stoned. He sounds genuinely sorry that times have changed so very much. 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rco5mMC9um8


Pat LIES about Muslim politicians in this country, and for a little extra umph to his nonsensical ramblings he adds that the American ideal of separation of church and state have gone way out of bounds. Way out of bounds? You mean way out of the boundaries that some Christians would set?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NA5taAM25ik


Some of the lies that fly from Pat's mouth are so very out-of-this-world stupid that you have to wonder how it is that so many people lend this fellow any credibility whatsoever. A DEAD person brought back to life by prayer? Promising people their dead children may be restored to them? I think somebody spiked his apple juice. That, or Pat is smoking schwag. 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6foV3WObSk


Here, Pat outdoes himself by making a statement so dumbfounding you are left thinking if what you just heard was really what was said. How in the fuckey-doo this cretin correlates Atheism with rape is beyond all sense, common or otherwise.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2ZDplL7MVw


How very sweet. Pat defends the murderous actions of God. And don't you just love his assertion that bad, terrible people procreate and produce more bad people? There are plenty of bad people in this world who came from good parents. Likewise, there are plenty of good people who came from bad parents. Do you think Pat knows this? Does he have the capacity to understand this?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izeWVzCw6gA


Here, Dr. Pat Robertson asserts that the cause of a woman's reoccurring cancer is the animosity between the woman and her father.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CokctlM618M


Pat relays what God told him would happen in 2014. Notice how generalized his statements are.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=euEeYsBlyCk


Sooo...scientific studies on global warming are really part of a huge hoax to make billions of dollars? Say what? 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdpBR34Ufis


Wow. Pat says there ARE some things that you should keep from your spouse. Been with a transsexual? Pat says to keep your mouth shut. Hah!!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEL_7VjoSUU


Whew! Good thing we have Pat to tell us that nudity is not wrong.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8WIaEoA_98


Pat totally bags on Creationism. Maybe there is hope for him after all.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUm5Ej8TyGY


Sooo...watching scary movies can open a person up to being inundated/possessed by demons?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPNhkuzw2-8


Astronomer Pat Robertson shares with the world that an asteroid hitting the earth would fulfill prophecies made by Jesus Christ. Oh, and he wrote a book about it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTdoZBTIdSI


Holy shit. Holy holy shit.

Three Cheers for Not Giving a Damn

Try the newest book Turkey Broth for the Spirit: Just a Few Questions which contains many questions directly related to this blog in particular of God's treatment of His people The book may be found here:
http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=ester+lighthorse


With a God like Him, who needs enemies?

Look, God does not care. God does not care about you, your family, your community, your nation, your culture, or even this planet. Since God does not care about such things it follows out of necessity that God would also give a frog's fat tush about offering any kind of protection to anyone, regardless of whether or not such an individual believes in God to begin with.

Life is what it is, right? We are conceived, born, live a bit, and then die. Everyone dies eventually. Everyone. This fact along with the reality of people who die far too early in their lives, children being murdered, people starving people, people blowing each other up, babies born with severe maladies and deformities, and so on and so forth, such things are great indicators that some great, invisible, all-powerful divine entity (assuming there is such an entity) gives a good goddamn about anyone or anything. Come to think of it, maybe God's give a damn is busted...just like in that song by Jodee Messina where she more or less says that she would like to give a damn but her give-a-damn is busted.

I suppose one of the biggest issues I have with the ridiculous Christian assertion that God cares for and protects Man are some of the verses in the Bible itself, terrible verses of God commanding genocide, allowing rape and incest, commanding burglary, and time after time and again exhibiting an extreme disregard and disrespect for human life. God is a horrible being in every way imaginable, especially when it comes to rendering punishment which more often than not punishes EVERYONE and not just the individual who does something displeasing to God.

Let's take a peek at some videos, shall we?

Who could have ever guessed that God gives so much consideration to politics and policy? A bigger question is why would God remove protection from people who are not even the ones who are FOR abortion? What is the deal with punishing everyone? Why would this great and all-powerful divine being who cares so very much for all of humanity and this nation punish the entire nation by removing His protection? Not all of the freaking people here agree with abortion, so why should their protection be removed? Why would they have to pay for someone else's terrible deed or someone else's disobedience toward God??
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ds9C6c94cTM

This guy is right. Why would some kids be protected by God and some not be protected?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=062dC8hPDP4

Well, this would be a great way to prove God exists, right? I mean, if you believe in Him then according to His word you can drink poison and pick up snakes and He will rescue/be with you, correct? So DO IT, oh ye believers. Do it. Drink some arsenic or hollyhock or pick up a viper or rattlesnake. You could prove God with one swoop. But the catch is that ALL who drink the poison and pick up the snakes have to be saved. There can be none of this God saving these five or six or seven people and letting another five or six people die from the snake's venom or of the arsenic sandwich they ingested.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z11y5_W1IYs

What have we here but some fine examples of God being protective of His believers/people. NICE.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m12mZiiaWuw

Ohhhh yeahhhh. We are here in this mega gargantuan universe where for some reason or other a great God cares specifically for humankind...screw all other planets and whatever life may be upon them.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lR_BAxFozAw

I like this video because, simply put, it is beautiful. Just...beautiful. Yet, God (at least the God of religion) has dick to do with anything pertaining to this beauty. Beauty exists outside of religion. In fact, I would say that in many cases religion has worked purposely and feverishly to destroy many of the things and people around us that are beautiful. "God doesn't make mistakes" sounds nice, but in reality it is nothing more than the staunchly religious trying to explain away the idea that if God was so ever loving perfect babies would not be born with Down's. It is just another way to explain away the utter imperfection and incompetence of God Almighty.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrH43xiFpPE

This is excellent!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VuRDJTWHnlo

Sooooo...when people don't get into trouble for the bad things they do it is simply God being gracious? Huh. Interesting. I would have thought it had nothing to do with grace and everything to do with having an imbalanced nature and process of dealing with the consequences of actions that are frowned upon either by God or men. Well, that or God does not give a damn.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ss8L9yA3zl0

Oh no no no. No. You cannot try to answer this question by trying to say there is a difference between God before He became Jesus and the God of the New Testament. Ooohhhhhhh no! Your own damn Bible says God is the same today as He was yesterday and evermore. Your own Bible says God is unchanging and has always existed. Remember in Genesis when God creates Man, God says, "Let US make man in our image and after our likeness." Thus are the holes poked into your answer. All of the expressions of God always existed and so the idea that the so-called incarnation of God to Man through Jesus Christ is what changed things up just will not wash.

Crazy for Jesus

I have never read about or heard of anything in the Bible that identified Jesus as crazy, so why do many of His followers behave like this?

Ahh, religion. Is believing in God or any deity a problem? No, not in and of itself. Then why are there so many verbal and physical fights and scuffles between believers and non-believers, and even between believers and believers? 

Somewhere along the line many of those who make the choice to believe in an all-knowing deity mistakenly begin thinking that their way of living and thinking and worshiping is the ONLY way to do such. Then, in their grand delusion of spiritual superiority they begin to behave in ways that are really baffling, stupid, absurd, ridiculous, cruel, hateful, angry, crazy, incendiary, divisive, dishonest, and pretty much everything that you would guess that Jesus himself would more than likely be against. Let's take a peek, shall we?

What is this guy doing? Is he mixing some strange version of Pentecostal worship with some kind of weird alcoholism?  Is that it? Is he trying to be cute and engaging? What is it with the "Oing! Oing! Oing!" he keeps saying? Find a 'drinking buddy' and shoot up with Jesus? A floating preacher suspended for twelve hours? What? This is flat out f*cking stupid.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tP8vQwymOuE

Oh DEAR Lord. What do people expect to achieve when behaving like this? Sure, this has got to be a skit (poorly executed I might say) but the basics of loony believers trying to evangelize the heathen masses is spot on. I will tell you now, in absolute truth and honesty, I know for sure that there were times that I sounded just like this. 

Back in the days when I still believed in God and Jesus and the Bible I know there were times I behaved just like this. I cannot begin to express my shame and sincere apologies for ever behaving like this toward anyone...ever. If you know me, Ester Lighthorse (or by my real name and not my pen name), as a family member or your friend or as a former friend or co-worker or whatever, and if I treated you in such an obtuse manner as I tried to shove whatever it was I thought was truth down your throat I would like to tell you that I am so sorry that I ever did such a thing to you. 

Yes, I was very young at the time. And while I did begin to think differently about what I was being taught about God and Jesus and religion when I was about 14 years old, I did not fully drop everything about the Bible and Christianity and faith and religion fully down the rubbish chute until considerably later. Still, I cannot rightfully use youth as an excuse because as true as I am sitting here now and typing this blog post I KNEW in the very depths of who I am as a person that what I was saying was wrong. It always felt WRONG, because to me it was immeasurably dishonest to take the handful of good messages in the Bible (like the strength and power of Love) and use those messages and the truth they offer as validation for lies and flat-out crazy shit.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gjj7EgqoiU4

Lovely. This is what many generations heavily burdened by the 'holy' bug insist on doing to future generations. How do you like what you see? And remember my position on this. I am NOT against religion as a choice for the individual. If you wish to believe, fine and power to you. What I AM against is ANY religion that attempts to smother people with out-of-this-world ridiculousness as to how people should and should not live. I am also against religion influencing politics on any level.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SF6NrQuup80

As I listened to this man rant and rave on how the people around him did not have faith two things came to mind. First, he says those around him have no faith. How does he know that they have no faith? Faith can be many things to the individual and the only viable answer I could come up with here was that this man meant that the people had no faith according to the preacher's interpretation and understanding of what faith is. Just a teeny bit biased, wouldn't you say?

The second thing that came to mind was the venomous rage with which this guy was preaching. Watch the film clip while viewing the video, and then play it again, except the second time close you eyes and listen to the inflection in this man's words. I found it to be very disturbing. I hope this is not an indicator of the direction that more and more people are claiming religion is moving in at an increasing rate, because if God is changing His message of love and salvation through Jesus to a message of hate, separation, prejudice, inequality, and justified cruelty...

This man's tidal wave of anger is a clear indicator that he does not know the first thing about what Jesus taught, or the ideals that Jesus is supposed to represent.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZCl3hw9eHt4

Here is a fine example of religious brainwashing. For the most part people maintain a certain conduct when interacting in social environments; there are things most people would do, and things most people wouldn't do. Then you have religion enter stage right. All of a sudden you have people absolutely ready and willing to do ANYTHING in the name of their God and His infallible truth.

Obviously the woman here could give a rat's ass and a good goddamn how absolutely foolishly she is behaving. Why? So long as the otherwise abnormal behavior is supposed to glean converts and add to the glory of God and His horrific plan for mankind, well...folks like this have special divine permission to do absolutely anything in the name of God. You know, I bet those idiot suicide bombers think the same damn way about Allah.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qm0foa5_m3Q

This is simply outstanding.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Om8VC4IfeRY

You know what? Maybe it isn't so much that Christianity has a vendetta against gays and lesbians so much as it is Christianity can feel the reigns of power and control slipping from its damnable grasp. Many Christians are SO desperate to remain in a position where they unfortunately believe and think that they are better (if only spiritually and eternally speaking) than all others, they will say and do ANYTHING. Many will have no trouble at all lying about the intent of those holding an opposing opinion. If Jesus were real do you think he would approve of this habit of lying? Gays and lesbians do not want to destroy marriage, no. Their intent is that they receive the same right and privilege to marry irrespective of their religious or gender preferences.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XzkVUEmHVI0

Wow. So much for Jesus loving the little children.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhyJpLIpRVA

Haahaahaa!!!! Haahaah!!!! Holy cow this is great! What do you know? There are believers who are so crazy for Jesus that they will try to misinterpret history, or in some cases change it altogether. 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VabmhdA6r3A

That's right. The bigger and more outlandish the claim, the crazier the individual making the claim is for Jesus. Look at the title of this video. Now look at the date it was posted. Jesus is coming soon? The freaking post is like two years old! Well, Jesus' interpretation of soon and the human interpretation of soon must be completely different.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kuIzC5GfRtg

Geeze, what the hell happened to the message of love and compassion supposedly offered by Jesus? And what is this shit about death being better than compromising? That's what the freaks who fly planes into buildings say. 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8mQvvGJYQaM

This is pathetic...and unfortunately very common.

What is Wrong with these People?

Sometimes You Know They are a Nut

Powers of darkness are over the nations? Powers of darkness are being dethroned? What the hell is this lady talking about? Darkness being pierced and the heavens being ripped? Lady...get off of the decaf...seriously. The darkness of humanism and atheism? What?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DMBltHILNBI&list=PL9DCCD58C2CDE9C20

So this charlatan picked up a lady's foot that had been severed by being run over by a car and restored it?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7uyIt__v_60&list=PL9DCCD58C2CDE9C20

Wow! Some people are so freaking far out there that you just have to listen to them out of pure morbid curiosity. This guy goes from lamb and pussy cat to weirdo in about minus three seconds. NICE. Animals can be demon possessed too, huh? That might explain these two little crazy orange kitties we had when we were kids. I swear those cats WERE possessed.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YwU5bXQMniE&list=PL9DCCD58C2CDE9C20

HHHaaahAAHAA!!!! Oh Jesus, this is good stuff!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pQqvkqMGhs&list=PL9DCCD58C2CDE9C20

Holy shit! Listen to what this guy says about the new flag for the Obama campaign. What is he talking about streaks of blood and a Satanic rendering of the American flag? The Illuminati and the All-Seeing Eye? 666? Dude, you are drinking Draino and living under power lines. 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiwCNnbelZg&list=PL9DCCD58C2CDE9C20

Oh suuuuurrrreeeee. Someone's child dies and you JUST NOW raised them from the dead. And of course you saw something like that happen in Pakistan and not the United States, right? Because if something like that really and truly happened here that would be ALL OVER the news and you would have converts galore. But NO. You don't, do ya? Because you are freaking fake.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-UK1_uoIfo&list=PL9DCCD58C2CDE9C20

So, are these people just bored and have nothing better to do than get themselves worked up into thinking they are experiencing some divine revelation or expression of divine power? What the hell?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YRq5RDX5Eus&list=PL9DCCD58C2CDE9C20

This woman has so many screws loose I am surprised she is still walking around in one piece. And NO. Your Creator does NOT have any right whatsoever to run this government or anything even remotely related to it. And while much of our laws DO come from English common law that had NOTHING to do with the goddamn Bible, so shut your lying trap.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9LSqlwx4d_A&list=PL9DCCD58C2CDE9C20

Haahaaaha!!! This is hilariously stupid. Oh, geeze! Because of President Clinton kids started having oral sex parties? You are seriously twisted.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ZI8V8iWkhs&list=PL9DCCD58C2CDE9C20

What in the world is going on in this video here? Indigestion? Delusion? Spiritual poisoning? All of the above? Is he trying to talk or trying to have a bowel movement?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MvCD1M9u2Tg&list=PL9DCCD58C2CDE9C20

Oh yes. Yes. Eventually I will have a lovely blog on our psychopathic pal Bryan Fischer. This guy is too good to pass up doing a blog on. He is like an especially delusional version of Rush Limbaugh...only he is about a hundred and fifty pounds lighter.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5QFCVAw6Ca8&list=PL9DCCD58C2CDE9C20

Oh look, you can watch the possession of children by religion as it actually happens. So sad.

Oral Roberts

Some Things Never Change

You gotta give it to the evangelists...because they are so wonderfully entertaining. This guy, Oral Roberts, is right up there with the rest of the evangelists that always find a way to taint the message of Jesus, although not irreparably. There are always more assholes in the world ready and willing to follow these guys no matter what they have done.

Geeze! This is pretty funny, especially the part where the guy has a dream about a 900 foot tall Jesus. This asshole even claims to have raised a child from the dead. You know, you would think that if someone is going to lie that they would at least make it believable.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jtk2hQrPO9s

You would be hard pressed to find very many evangelicals who have NOT rocked their organization with some scandal or other.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKCenNc0pMs

Don't even try to pretend that you are shocked. I wonder if he told the cops he had been drinking the blood of Jesus? I mean, wine IS used as the blood of Jesus so you figure His Holiness has, what, 10% proof alcohol minimum?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=fvwp&v=bH7fpBYP2Ns&NR=1

Good Lord! I have heard of stupid criminals...I think we all have...but how can these people be this dumb? Who misappropriates funds and then saves the proof on the computer and THEN loans that computer to someone? You would think that with their level of education they would at least give their crimes better thought. Hah! And they ALWAYS have something to say about the REAL truth.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9JnG6rjVEvE

Deliciously hilarious. And this guy is right, it IS people like Oral Roberts who fuck up religion and abuse the faith of those who blindly follow.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqH9qQlIRYg

Oh, good gracious. These preachers really need to get a new trick because they have most certainly played this particular game for far too long. People HAVE caught on. Then again, maybe the right people are not catching on. Get the religiously misled to catch on and you might actually get somewhere.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tw7UvFu8ns

Well, it is apparent that there is no shortage of Oral Roberts fans.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpELE9cGWeE

So...Oral Roberts has received a message from God about five things that were to SHORTLY come to pass. Remember, this was in the early fifties. What were these prophecies? Well lets take a peek: man cannot and will not destroy himself in that period of time (1950s). God was going to limit atomic weapons. There was going to be a visitation of man by angels. There was going to be a flood of supernatural events and evidence of supernatural powers. Mass miracle healing would begin taking place...this guy just goes on and on and on.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GX8tgfVzbvs
