I actually want to apologize for every Christian out there for his idiotic statements. He actually thinks he is somebody "important" and thinks he can say whatever he pleases and that is not the case. He probably has a few yes men around him that kisses his ass and does not argue with him about the things he says and does. When you are 9in the position he is in, you HAVE to have people around you that challenge what you say and give you different angles to look at things. Pat Robertson is like that deranged and unstable family member who says outlandish stuff at the family reunion barbecue, but everybody puts up with him because he has a lot of money LOL. To say that a natural disaster happened because somebody made a pact with the Devil is moronic. We live on PLANET EARTH. Natural disasters are going to happen, and we should expect them to as well. The Earth had tsunamis and earthquakes WAY before humans were on this planet, so just too even think that is crazy. To say that things like this happen is because you sinned is a terrible way to look at things. Remember when Pat Robertson had prostate cancer? Did he get that because of HIS sins? I bet you won't hear him talking about that! Bottom line, this is a time where the world can come together and show each other how compassionate we can be and that we are all in this together. What occurred in Haiti could happen to Canada tomorrow. It could happen to Great Britain next year. You never know! And who are we to question God and talk about his intentions? He obviously had a plan for this, and I think it was to bring people together. He wants to see how kind our hearts are. And if you do not like what Pat Robertson said, all you have to do is turn the channel or turn the TV off. That is the beauty of technology LOL. It is unjust to blame the people of Haiti for what happened to Haiti. I wonder what Pat Robertson said when Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans.

First with Pat , I understand that he is old and he has his opinions on the subject but there is no reason that he should make such accusations based on his own personal biases. I have read the Bible from front to back and do not remember the slightest mention of the pact between the devil and the Haitians. I think it is preposterous that he is allowed to keep hosting that show. As a Christian he should have compassion and sympathy for what has happened. I think that him being a few cards short of a deck has no effect on the morals or competency of the producers of the show. But yet they allow him to stay on. Now with Rush, I don’t think that the Obama administration is helping Haiti to appeal to the “black and brown” Americans. I believe that the administration is helping Haiti because it is really close to home; we are able to send supplies fairly quickly to them. Now I can’t say for certain the reason why they are helping Haiti because I’m not a part of the Obama administration. I believe the reason for Rush thinking is the race of the president. I believe he is thinking this because it is the reason that will become the most apparent and Identifiable to the general public is the color of his skin. Personally I think that we should help Haiti because we are in the position to. Now with that being said I don’t think that we should spread our selves thin. We have people in the United states who are starving and below poverty level. These people are starting to slip through the cracks. As a Society we need to make sure our own people are ok and living well before we start to worry by others. I remember myself just in awe of the accusations made by Pat and Rush.

Now I see that it is a little more credible by what I just read by Pat Robertson. As a Christian, if the people of Haiti really did make some sort of pact with the devil, then I hate to say it but they got what they put in. I’m not judging their beliefs, and I’m sure that they had some idea of what retaliation could come. But perhaps they were that desperate to be free in that case I might have possibly done it myself. This is a touchy subject because all Christians don’t think the same; personally I would hope that God wouldn’t be so upset that he would have such a horrible destruction occur.

One can only hope that every person's actions are meant in the best of intentions, though sadly I don't believe this is always the case. I'm glad that you understand how misguided public religious figures can cause more damage than good to a religious group or community. However, people cannot withhold all judgment. We are human, after all. You are very correct that it is not my place to judge another person's religious affiliation as being true or otherwise.

Pat Robertson's whimsical claim that Haiti "made a pact with the devil", I feel, is extremely condescending and righteous. As Sam said, it is not like the whole country of Haiti one day passed around a petition to make a pact with the devil in favor of freedom from the French. The last time I checked, freedom is fought through bloody wars and revolutions, and gained through the persevarence of a council of leaders that strive to push change. For sure, freedom does not immediately come to anyone, let alone a nation, by signing a pact with a creature such as "the devil". It truly scares the '"bejesus" out of me to think that the millions of viewers who watch Robertson's 700 Club will believe the nonsense that comes from this guy's mouth. Who is he to think that he is some sort of superior being to an entire destitute nation of Haitians, a people who literally have close to nothing and have recently lost close to everything? ...And this is all because of a pact they made with the devil long ago... yeah, right. It makes me stop to wonder about what else this guy is preaching to mass audiences. Is Robertson twisting real-life stories in defense of guilty parties, or is he headlining certain innocent people, races, religions, and ethic groups as malicious? As for the rest of us, we can only hope that some of Robertson's viewers were are able to think for themselves in a situation such as this to fully comprehend the outrageousness in which Robertson preaches. I agree with Sam in that his remarks make it seem like there is a succinct distinction between "good and bad" and "black and white". In my opinion, Robertson is viewing himself as the superior, "good" white man and is finding it necessary to explain the devastation, or in this case, "bad" that has erupted in Haiti, a "black" community. If Robertson is supposed to be a "Man of God" and a true Christian, why is he trying to create separation and chaos in a nation struck by tragic times? If anything, shouldn't he be trying to mend the wounds and bring the enlightenment of Christianity to Haiti? Where's the inspiration here, where are the saviors? It's sensible to think that when disaster strikes, people want to return the normality back into their life as soon as possible. Robertson's irrational claim may be one of the furthest from normal or rational beliefs. While the rest of the world is trying to aid a broken nation, Robertson is trying to find demented explainations as to why Haiti is fully deserving of such tragedy.

If he is a Roman Catholic and an educated person he would know the majority of Haitians consider themselves Roman Catholics. And that Roman Catholicism is the official religion of Haiti. So where's the love Robertson? Although the word Voodoo (Ooh scary word) is so closely associated with Haiti, that our western culture thinks the word "devil" automatically. Majority of Haitians practice at least one aspect of Voodoo. They believe it can coexist with Catholicism. So where did this fold belief of "devil worshipers" come in? Voodoo revolves around family spirits. Just like Catholics have certain Saints to pray to like Saint Michael the Archangel and Saint Jude, Haitians pray to a similar thing called Loua (with different categories of it) to protect them from evil and to bring family fortune. Both religions have the same thing; it's just not our thing, which makes it easy for people like Robertson to say the things they say. And yes, we are entitled to free speech and are one of the greatest things about our Country, but there are some people like Pat Robertson who abuse that privilege. Mind you, that's not his first and only rude remark about a disaster. He also ran his mouth about Hurricane Katrina and the attacks on 9/11 when they had occurred. Maybe he just does this to bring ratings in for his show? I mean, come on, who really watches the CBN and the 700 Club? He's like every other public figure. If they say something or do something that causes a controversy, people follow that person and watch them for the next big thing. I am of the Catholic religion. I was taught when I was younger that we were suppose to help one another in hard times when it seems like Gods presence is least. To help our fellow brothers and sisters. And I'm not saying that no one is helping those people. It's so great how all of us get together to help the Haitian people as much as we possibly can. Please, keep helping these people. Pat Robertson should just keep his mouth shut, plain and simple. Maybe he wants attention? Maybe he's insane? Or maybe he's just a jackass. His comment about Haiti and about other disasters are not just plain unacceptable, but they are also confusing. You can not take a person seriously when they say "people made a deal with the Devil and THIS is why a natural disaster happened". He should take the advice of my Mom, "If you're not going to say anything nice- don't say anything at all."

Even the people who watch his show have to think somewhere in the back of their minds that he is completely insane. I mean saying that the Haitians made a deal with Satan to get rid of the French and that god punished them with an earthquake is so crazy that my crazy meter has been reset. That's like saying Thomas Jefferson is responsible for Hurricane Katrina because he made the Louisiana Purchase from the French and Satan brokered the deal. I don't understand why the cable news networks would give this hateful person such a large stage to advertise his insanity. I don't watch the 700 Club, I don't know a single person who watches the 700 Club even by accident flipping through the channels, I don't even know what channel the 700 Club is on. Paying attention to what Pat Robertson has to say is like listening to the guy on the street corner who's screaming about the end of world. I knew that Pat Robertson was a crazy snake oil salesman, but these comments really brought him down to a new low. Anybody who would send this guy money really needs to take a look at themselves. I'm not sure which is worse, if he actually believes what he is saying, or if he is saying it to please the people who do believe in this garbage. I hope the cable news networks think twice the next time Pat Robertson says something so hateful and that they decide to just ignore him. Also, I like Keith Olbermann, but he should go back to Sports Center before he ends up just like the Glenn Beck.

Why does Pat Robertson feel he needs to amp up the Haiti story, like its not a big enough event by itself. I was thinking about this the other day, when did the news become about entertainment? Was it like this when I was a kid and I just didn't not know any better. The answer to that question is NO! The news used to be the news. Now its all about some loudmouth assholes opinion. Why should we even listen to what they say? Their a bunch of actors who read a script written by people who will write whatever the network tells them to write. Do you really think Glenn Beck is some kind of political genius?! He is just their to support peoples ideas who already think the same way as his character on TV. Cable news doesn't care about reporting the news, they care about beating the others cable news channels. The cable news networks could learn a few lessons from local news and or Joe Friday, you know "just the facts".
