Not OK in a Judeo-Christian society, hence all the preaching about fornicators and adulterers. Besides, if you are selling a guilt trip, what better thing to make people feel guilty about than sex? As to some priests and bishops going after children, it is not OK either in a Judeo-Christian society but admitting it was possibly viewed as bad PR, and avoiding bad PR outweighed turning the miscreants over to the police. The Catholic Church learned the hard way that covering up crimes to avoid embarrassment can be a very expensive proposition, particularly if covered up in such a way that it lets the perpetrators commit still more crimes, once people find out and start suing for damages.

This is not 1936! As they said in the old days ( Remember Mr. Robertson?) "The times..they are a changing". If heterosexuals can get married and divorced as many times as they wish..and if Catholics can get an ANULLMENT to state they were never even married, why is it the religious right is always perpetrating that gays are a harm to society? In a world when many politicians, celebrities, and even preists are bringing down their own moral and societal fibers...its ludricrous for stagnant bigots like Mr. Robertson to even attempt to continue an antiquated and extremely bigotted stance. The days of "scare them" into mindlessness is over. The world is changing daily. Its time for Equal rights! P.S. Yes, Mr. Robertson...I DO want to marry my same sex partner of over 13 years. Heard that? I DO. I DO...deserve and want the same rights. I DO. www.twitter.com/TweetwithStone What a load of horse manure! This is not 1936!

The Pat Robertson types are so much against LGBT people because feeding existing cultural prejudices is a good way of pumping up those all important ratings, not to mention donations from gullible viewers. It has nothing to do with the Bible, or "God Almighty", but rather "The Almighty Dollar".

He and Jerry Fallwell were ranting on TV that America deserved to be attacked on 911, even while people were desperately digging in the rubble in New York and at the Pentagon looking for possible survivors. This man hates America, hates Americans and wishes us harm. His actions during a time of true crisis exposed him for the traitor that he is. Why does anyone in America listen to this traitor?

One day on the 700 Club back in 1994, his sidekick went on a riff, addressing people who might have homosexual temptations. She looked into the camera, and quite sincerely spoke about how God doesn't want you to be miserable and depressed. And she was right: He doesn't. Everything about her plea was spot on, except for the conclusion. It was a timely message to hear. I was 22 and lonely. And thank God I had the independence of mind to see past the ignorant suggestions at the end. I have Pat Robertson to thank, in part, for coming to terms with my sexuality.
