Yaweh Soprano Makes Another Hit

The Rev. Pat Robertson said Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon is being punished by God for dividing the Land of Israel. Robertson, speaking on the “700 Club” on Thursday, suggested Sharon, who is currently in an induced coma, and former Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, assassinated by an Israeli extremist in 1995, were being treated with enmity by God for dividing Israel. “He was dividing God’s land,” Robertson said. “And I would say, Woe unto any prime minister of Israel who takes a similar course to appease the E.U., the United Nations or the United States of America. God says, This land belongs to me. You better leave it alone.”

So the manifestation of God's punishment is to give a heavy man in his late seventies a stroke? I guess that's as logical as saying God broke George Burns's hip when He didn't think Burns was funny anymore. First intelligent design and now intellegent gerontology. New sciences spring from the fecund mind of Pat Robertson.
