As usual, a member of the US Christian leadership shows of their skills in logic.
Quote: On the morning after the tragedy in Oak Creek, Wisconsin, The 700 Club's Pat Robertson placed the blame for the shooting at the Sikh Temple on atheists and those who "hate God."
"...people who are atheists, they hate God, they hate the expression of God, and they are angry at the world, angry with themselves, angry with society and they take it out on innocnent people who are worshipping God..."

As usual, Pat hits the nail on his head.
For shame Christians, that you allow idiots like Robertson, Falwell et al, to be megaphones for your communities.

Many Chrisitans don't allow him to speak for them at all, but it's pretty much impossible to shut a blowhard like Pat up. The ones that do allow him to speak for them, well, he's just saying what they're all thinking.

Assholes like this might as well be pissing on the graves of those who have died.
What a prick, insensitive, self obsessed, pathetic, warmongering arsehole.

Wait, why didn't he go shoot up a freethinker's convention or something? Why did he go kill Sikhs thinking they were Muslims when he should have been killing Atheists?
I have this funny cartoon mental image of God fumbling with all sorts of deadly Acme traps, trying to guide the deranged psychopath towards the proper set of victims.

Speaking of poor logic...
''allowing'' Gerry Falwell to be a megaphone...???
How about you show us your own ''skills in logic'' and try to explain what exactly you suggest can be done to stop Mr Falwell?

Kicking him out of your organisations and disassociating yourself with him would be a start.
Woah, that was some real crazy hard logic to figure out wasn't it.
Fucking idiot.
