I'll repeat my earlier question: am I supposed to be impressed? I'm not, sorry. I have two college degree myself, from less prestigious universities than Yale but having spent enough time in the educational system and now approaching 40 I can safely say this: where you get your education from has little to do with how smart you are. There are people who go to community colleges that are smarter than people who go to Princeton. They just didn't come from wealthy families, or maybe they didn't work quite as hard in high school and were out experiencing life instead of staying home studying textbooks, or whatever. Life experience and what's inside a person is what really counts. Pat Robertson can have all the degrees in the world, and 90% of what he says is still complete, ignorant, bullshit.

The point is, I don't care where Pat Robertson got his degree. He doesn't even believe in evolution, so I'll take your basic community college Anthropology class student over his mind on numerous topics any day of the week.

Okay, whatever. He's a damn lousy liar at that, so apparently Yale didn't teach him how to spin things in a way that would appeal to anybody outside of a minority of brainwashed idiots.

Again, am I supposed to be impressed? I'm still not. Sorry.

homophobes do.

But maybe the pseudo- "christians" actually do have the upper hand here...

I haven't read of Islamists firebombing medical clinics and assassinating doctors inside their house of worship. (May 31, 2009)

I believe it was the fall of 1987 or the spring of 1988. Pat Robertson was positioning himself to make a run for President at the next election. I had a girlfriend who was gung-ho for this "man of God" to get the nomination. She was too much into religion & not enough into reason. We soon went our separate ways.
