		<description>&quot;TomPaine&quot; asked --

&lt;i&gt;&quot;Do you think that if God was going to talk to someone he would bother with stock tips?&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

It probably has to do with His being a &quot;loving God,&quot; and answering the questions Robertson asked him.  

The &quot;reverend&quot; Pat could have asked for the  secret of achieving world peace or the secret to selling your power beverage which makes you bench press two-thousand pounds, guaranteed.  But no, Robertson was more interested in the Dow.  

He might as well have asked God which is the best college football team.

God would say something like --

&lt;b&gt;Utah.  Yeah, there are a lot of Mormons on the team but the whole no drinking or caffeine thing works for college-age kids.  Even though it&#039;s weird.  And there&#039;s a lot of fornicating going on with those Florida Gator guys.&quot;&lt;/b&gt;

Or something.

Then again, Robertson could&#039;ve asked God for the winning PowerBall numbers and so, eliminate all those fund-raiser &quot;Prayer-a-Thons&quot; on his broadcasts.  One question and God would answer something like:

&lt;b&gt;&quot;12-15-24-46-51, with the PowerBall 19 on the March 18th draw... it&#039;ll fund you for five years,&quot;&lt;/b&gt; and we&#039;d know our world was in the presence of a true prophet.  

Otherwise, not so much.</description>

		<description>He (Robertsssson) is getting his sheeple accustomed and acclimated to the kinder, gentler and way out in the open Socialism. To me, he is a Judas Goat as well.

Remember this?:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SRIDNQNsUss

It&#039;s been told though, and never you fret. After the inaugural terrorist attack, the hard core righty&#039;s will have Obama portraits on their walls. I mean we already owe China waay too much money for stocking up on their cheap American flags. So we already got the flags for waving covered.

And we&#039;ll all be waving flags, joyful and happy in our totalitarian state. And well then maybe, just maybe, glastnos will still be there as well.

And we won&#039;t even mind that, while in our socialist and equal...ness splendor, those that handle dishing out our fair share will be living in the most opulent (but equal) housing. And we&#039;ll be so understanding when they get the &quot;more equal&quot; portion of soup.</description>

		<description>In our socialistic efforts to become more like the Scandavian nations and the Netherlands, the morrals of our society have slipped perhaps beyond a catastropic effort of the Almighty (whoever he may be) to render band aid cures.  I&#039;ve said many times that many if not most of the people in the U.S. couldn&#039;t stand up to another world wide depression that was stemmed  temporarily by WWII.  Signs  of our weakness of character have already become apparent.  We&#039;ve become so numbed by letting others solve all problems (Congress and local governmental agencies) we&#039;ve become unable to take the punches and fight back.  Destruction of the family, open attacks on Judeo-Christian values, excesses by business and trade union leaders, growth of a lawless society in general and even lack of compassion for the truly needy and unemployed or unable to perform useful labor at the top of the list of character weaknesses to which we&#039;ve become immune in our thinking.  The greatest loss has been any sense of community by individuals turned so selfishly inward we don&#039;t even know who live next door to us in many cases. Chickens are going to come to root in the coming years.  Failures by our national and local leaders have caused us to once again look for the man (or womnan) on the white horse to save us.  Now we&#039;re looking at an empty suit with the gift of gab in the peoples&#039; White House who is merely a puppet of those who paid to get him  into the  seat of power.  You&#039;d be surprised at  the number of people who view him as &quot;Jesus in jeans&quot; and the &quot;savior&quot; of us all.  Well, my friends you&#039;re about to  reap the whirlwind of your selfishness in the coming four years.  You&#039;ll have  to get your toothpaste and clean underwear (if you have an accident) from the government and not even have to lift a finger.  We get what we deserve.</description>

		<description>So, Robertson is important enough that God gives him new prophecies?

Guess encouragement to follow those words already written down and attributed to God don&#039;t keep Robertson busy enough?

		<description>psfftSshhhh...

My apologies Reverend Roberts, but you&#039;ve been wrong more often than not.

Serendipity on 2008&#039;s prediction does not make prophecy.</description>

It&#039;s God who screwed up.</description>

		<description>Robertson doesn&#039;t have a good prediction track record.  

He also said god wanted him to run for president.

George W. Bush: &quot;Well, the Lord has some very encouraging news for George Bush ... What I heard is that Bush is now positioned to have victory after victory and that his second term is going to be one of triumph, which is pretty strong stuff. ... He&#039;ll have Social Security reform passed. He&#039;ll have tax reform passed. He&#039;ll have conservative judges on the courts. And that basically he is positioned for a series of dramatic victories which I hope will hearten him and his advisers. They don&#039;t have to be timid in this matter because the wind is blowing at his back, and he can move forward boldly and get results.&quot; 
Muslims and others turning to Jesus Christ: &quot;In America, again if I&#039;m hearing God right, we will see a tremendous incident of miracles in the year 2005. ... God&#039;s spirit is going to be moving in dramatic power around the world. And his spirit is going to be touching the hearts of many in the Muslim world and they will be turning to the gospel, to Jesus Christ. I think many of them already are, but this is going to be an acceleration that will really amaze the world. ... &#039;Revival will break out throughout the Muslim world, my [God&#039;s] truth will penetrate their hearts. The hold of that falsehood that has gripped them will be broken.&#039;&quot;

In 1980, Robertson predicted the start of World War III, telling his audience that God said the year would be full of &quot;sorrow and bloodshed that will have no end soon, for the world is being torn apart, and my kingdom shall rise from the ruins of it.&quot; He also prophecied in the same year that the Soviet Union would invade the Middle East to seize its oil reserves. 
In 1988, Robertson claimed that God told him to run for president. He did not win the Republican primary. 
In his 1991 book The New World Order, Robertson forecast that U.S. Senator Jay Rockefeller would be elected president in 1996. 
In 1998, Robertson threatened that, as punishment for flying rainbow flags during Disney World&#039;s annual Gay Days event, the city of Orlando would be struck by &quot;earthquakes, tornadoes and possibly a meteor&quot;. 
In 2004, Robertson predicted that George W. Bush would win reelection in &quot;a blowout&quot;. Although Bush was reelected, it was by 50.7% to 48.3% - the closest ever margin for a sitting president. 
In January 2006, Robertson forecast that the U.S. midterm elections would leave the Republican party in control of Congress. He also predicted that the Iraq war would &quot;come to a successful conclusion&quot; that year and U.S. troops would begin withdrawing. 
Robertson also predicted in 2006 that devastating storms and hurricanes would lash the U.S. coast. He must have thought this a particularly safe guess, but in fact no hurricanes made landfall in the U.S. in that year.
