Hands off our angels!

Here is the inimitable Pat Robinson explaining where the word "sodomy" comes from, according to him it used to be a place in the Middle East (Sodom) where homosexuality was "embraced". Even visiting angels were sexually harassed by hordes of gays, although why beautiful men wearing skimpy dresses and feathers would be targets of such shocking behaviour remains lost in the sands of time. Then, after some dubious sexual bartering, Yahweh nuked the whole area killing everyone except one family minus the mother who God transformed into sodium chloride sculpture (well, ice is no good in the heat obviously) - the meaning of this story is clear to Pat, don't try to bum angels or God will nuke you!



So, all straightforward so far, but what I don't get about Pat's God is why he keeps on making stuff a certain way and then destroying it again for being that way, sounds like a complete incompetent to me? Anyway, Pat goes on to explain that no society has ever embraced homosexuality and survived; This almost sounds like a fact but I guess it hinges on what he means by "society", "embrace" and "survive", in fact what the hell does he mean? Never mind, the USA is obviously on the wrong slippery slope when it comes to tolerating gay people, the angels should be arriving any day now and then the fun will start, you just wait* and see!

*Oh and while you're waiting send all your money to Pat, mansions and private jets don't pay for themselves you know!

Makes you want to dedicate your life to researching these statements people like the Pat say, doesn't it?

So in Pat Robertson's view, it's homosexuality, not the attempted rape of strangers, that's wrong...

I don't agree.

But I do agree that it's where the word "Sodomy" came from. Let's face it, if it had been called "Gomorrahry" the practice would never have been so attractive to the young and impressionable.

AE, well quite, the man has things somewhat confused, biology and tradition, never good bedfellows.

As for "Gomorrahry" sounds like a children's TV program, the Daily Mail would never stand for it ;)

Charlene, apparently if you just send money it's quicker and easier; then someone else (like Pat) does the research for you and tells you what to think..
