"Feminism encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians."
-- Pat Robertson


Y'know, folks, there really isn't just anything I can say to comment on this. I could make a snide comment, or I could try to be practical-minded about it, but...


no. The arrogant stupidity of that comment just has to speak for itself.

i think just the thought of pat robertson in any sexual context encourages women to become lesbians. i am barfing now.

Someone elsewhere suggested that Ole' Pat is actually a repressed homosexual agitating against gay marriage so as to remove temptation from his options...


I'll spare you the rest of the visuals that poster (glares at said poster) shared with his readers...

Thanks for the sparage

... I've heard the theory before, and I just have to ask:
What did gay men do to deserve that?!

I am sorry to say I've also heard Robertson's spiel before, a good decade ago (though not on the atrocious 700 Club, thank God). Is the practice of witchcraft before or after the destruction of capitalism? *snerk*

My brain hurts. And contrary to what Pat Robertson might think, I do have one.

Well, if you substitute feminism with "right-wing evangelicalism" then he might have a point. Except for the lesbianism part....

I don't know...

Remember the Log Cabin Republicans. Maybe they are lesbians... ;^)

I stand corrected! *g*

Is that a new comment from the loathsome Robertson? If so, it might be telling that he's publicly spouting nonsense like that again.

Huh? Since when does feminism do all that crap?

Remember, Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson do not speak for me.

I do believe that is an old quote as I vaguely recall him saying that before. Then again I could be confusing it with similiar quotes made by either him or some other leader of the fundamentalists. His christian coalition supporters however, actually believe that statement. Keep that in mind and remember that his brand of bigotry is now running the country unopposed.

Gosh, if I knew I had that much power I'd . . . dispense with batteries entirely.

Whoah! It THAT what it does? Sign me up!

When it's Pat Robertson, I just can't resist the snide comment: the most that deluded paranoiacs deserve, IMO.

It -is- an old quote, but Ginmar pulled it out again.

It's the sort of thing that makes you want to be a virgin again, so you can STAY one.

Or an Amazon.

Yeah. Amazon. I like that.

He's not still railing against feminism, is he? How 'Seventies of him.

[christymarx.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that quote dates back to when we were trying to pass the ERA. Anybody remember that?
