Robertson: Countries that embrace homosexuality go "down into ruin," end "up in the garbage heap of history"

Beside, the British Empire (tongue firmly in cheek) has been around how long? If there is any country that might have been said to "embrace" homosexuality, I have to think the British are in there somewhere.
Gay and Lesbian families live in 99.3% of all counties in the US
Too bad the same conservatives who go after Wright have absolutely no problems with Robertson and HIS hateful rhetoric.
the polemic is that the rule of the then christianist-aligned later rulers of the empire ruined it because they imposed their form of the christian religion above all others, to the extreme of violence, and failed to expand the trade and growth that the world was seeing at the time. they came from a religious-xenophobic, not homophobic, viewpoint. they were purely self-aggrandizing and self-serving. they were not malleable nor open to any ideas that were contrary to their safe zones. after all, this was the beginning of the Dark Ages, the 3rd - 5th centuries CE (Common Era not christian era.]
wait, Robertson reminds me of Justinian I, the man most reviled for ruining the Roman Empire!
Georger Santayana was correct “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”
Also, did anyone notice his co-host...when Pat said "Is anyone actually proud of being transgendered?"....did anyone notice that she was left speechless?? I can't tell if it's because she thought he crossed the line or she doesn't actually know what transgendered means....thoughts anyone?
I think his co-hosts and followers are so wrapped up in their beliefs and admiration for Mr. Robertson, their brains (or whatever is left) have been so deluded, they have no choice but to regurgitate whatever vile things have been spewed at them.
Thankfully, I think even the super Christian convervatives are realizing what a nutjob this guy is.....besides, except for his devout followers, does this guy have any real relevance anymore?
Thanks for that update Pat!
LOL
...seriously! ROFL!!!
