I can see where people could be a little less than happy with this comment by Robertson, but can we say, if you are a Christian, that he is totally of base with the comment that he made? Poor choice of words and at a bad time, maybe, but when it quacks like a duck and waddles like a duck it is probably a duck! I think Pat Robertson should think about what he says because he knows the left wing is going to come after him when he says things like this in these types of times. Not that I would want someone to hold back what is on their mind, but it would probably be in his best interest not to be shown in the media to be some kind of hateful person, and that is what he is being shown as in the media, especially today!
I think your comment is fair, Robertson could have kept the historical part of the “Deal With The Devil” of topic, at least for a few months. It is historically significant to Christians. It was just not the right time to bring this up. I am a Christian and do believe in spiritual repercussions, but tack is important. What many liberals will do now is try to tie Christians to being un-caring and that would be sad because Christians do much of the aide work there in Haiti, not to mention their are already in mass preparing major aide services.
