God obviously talks to Pat. Robertson, since the good reverend has come up with the most stunning prediction of all!
The Rev. Pat Robertson says God has told him that storms and possibly a tsunami will hit America’s coastline this year.
The founder of the Christian Broadcasting Network has told viewers of “The 700 Club” that the revelations came to him during his annual personal prayer retreat in January. “If I heard the Lord right about 2006, the coasts of America will be lashed by storms,” Robertson said May 8.
He added specifics in Wednesday’s show. “There well may be something as bad as a tsunami in the Pacific Northwest,” he said.
There “may well?” “As bad as?” Oh, come on, Pat — surely God gave you dates, magnitudes, and casualty counts, didn’t He? I mean, it’s not like “storms lashing the coasts” takes any great brilliance to predict. God wouldn’t leave you hanging with a shoddy prediction like that, would He? Would He?
Of course, given that we’ve just finished going through the late winter and spring months — why’d you wait since January to tell us about this little revelation, Pat?
Yeah, um… I had a vision, too. Around September, millions of trees in this country will lose their leaves! And if I understood correctly, the northern states may well see something like snow a few months later.
Where’s my Maalox?
