Dr Jones summed up my thoughts nicely in his response, but I'd like to add a couple of things.
You need to do some Biblical research on your own as he has done and as I have done on this.
No thanks, there are many more constructive and useful things I'd rather spend my time on.
Get off the messenger's back and focus on the messenger's statements.
I was focusing on his statements, which is why I was disturbed by it. If Robertson and his fundie cohorts really believe this rubbish, then how does this affect their views on other issues?
IIRC doesn't biblical prophecy call for a big war in the middle east? Like, the final big showdown between good and evil which must happen for all the faithful to take their place alongside God? Therefore, Robertson and fundies should be wanting this war to take place, so why should they care about peace in the middle east?
Why should they give two hoots about the environment, or finding alternatives to fossil fuel? Why should they be interested in allocating resources to researching and developing treatments and cures for illness? Why indeed, should they care in any way about improving things for us and future generations, if the end-times are coming and Jesus is returning?
Also in view of all this, remember that Robertson has the ear of Dubya himself! I don't think I want to know what kind of shit he is being told.
The probability that someone is watching you is directly proportional to the stupidity of your action.
