Giving the cheater a pass is okay if it's a man. In John 8:3-11 the pharisees bring an adulterous woman to Jesus, seeking judgment in order to condemn him. Jesus trumps them with the famous "let he who is without sin cast the first stone" line. At no part in the situation does anyone consider it out of place that they only brought the adulterous woman, and not the man she cheated with. Since she was "caught in the act," they knew who the man was. But only the woman was to be made an example of. I don't think anyone's shocked that Pat Robertson is stuck in the ancient past.
Robertson continued, "what's that? None of those? Well, you're still just a women, so suck it up and get back in the kitchen, like the good lord intended."
Pat Robertson Wrote:‘Does he provide a home for you to live in,’ he said. 'Does he provide food for you to eat? Does he provide clothes for you to wear? Is he nice to the children... Is he handsome?’
Robertson continued, "what's that? None of those? Well, you're still just a women, so suck it up and get back in the kitchen, like the good lord intended."
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
