That's true.
Maybe he hides in somewhere in his conspicuously large belly.

Well, if each person gets to define his or her own personal god, then I
suppose every person has a direct line to that god. But that's sort of a
tautology.

Did you know you just used 'tautology' in a different sense than A.J. Ayer,
logician extrordinaire, used to use it?

sounds positively pagan to me. I wonder if Pat Robertson is really a
Wiccan :)

From his perspective, he has no choice but to do what his God demands
of him. The fact that he may lose popular favor doesn't much matter,
unless, of course, his whole gig is a sideshow. So the weirder he
gets, the more I think he's an authentic believer who just isn't
into a pre-packaged and marketable god.

Then one has to draw a line between an "authentic believer" and a "raving
maniac".

The distinction may determine how one will respond to them. But, you are
right. It isn't "or", just "if".

Interesting story on NPR today about right wing religious leaders
complaining that Robertson's off-the-wall remarks are casting a bad
light on all of them.

wasn't it robertson who requested that someone assassinate the venzuala
el presidente?
it didn't take this much for me to recognize the idiocy inherent in
his ramblings & spewings but the reinforcement is comedic.
