There he goes again.
He probably knows less about Buddhism than he does Christianity.

I can't remember a time that I looked at him with a thought other than " is this dude nuts?"
I mean, I get it... when you entire career and existence consists of sermons and speechifyin'.. it's inevitable dumb stuff will fall from your face from time to time.... but dayum, Pat... retire already... go and be well in your old age.. prepare to meet your maker.... but for the love of God, stop saying dumb stuff.
Why on Earth are this woman and her co-workers spending so much time talking about religion on the job anyway?

Did you watch the video in the OP?
He'll get to heaven while his detractors are heading the other way.
Christianity spreads hate and fear while Buddhism spreads compassion and love. It's no wonder that you and Pat Robertson choose the former over the latter.
Atheism spreads lies.
What a ridiculous thing to say. Do you really believe that?
Absolutely. Christians spend their time trying to attack homosexuals and deny them rights. Christian doctrine is that we're all born filthy, despicable humans who should be ashamed. The religion is based entirely on fear and coercion. Why should we all be christians? Because god will torture us forever if we aren't. Sorry, being threatened isn't really a good reason to believe something.
Buddhists on the other hand teach that all life is precious and that we need to learn to respect our neighbor. We're all in this journey together and no group of people is "the chosen ones". You'd be hard pressed to find a Buddhist calling Christianity an infection.
Your ignorance (willful, I suspect) is astonishing.

I'm pretty sure that's not for you to decide. :wink:
That's true, but only to an extent:
Or don't you know that the saints will judge the world? - 1 Corinthians 6:2
Do you not know that we are to judge angels? - 1 Corinthians 6:3
Judgment concerning eternal separation is God's alone.
Then you should hang out more on DP. I'm not the one trying to deny rights to minority groups or tell innocent people they'll be tortured for eternity.II don't know any Christian's that even come close to spewing the hate you spew on a daily basis. You truly give atheism a bad name.
And he gave us some indicators how it works.
Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God's wrath remains on them. - John 3:36
I told you that you would die in your sins; if you do not believe that I am he, you will indeed die in your sins. - John 8:24
So if you don't have Christ as your Lord and Savior for the remission of your sins, you're lost.
You truly don't see the hypocrisy in a vengeful god that punishes people "for all eternity" simply because they don't believe in things that require faith????

And unless you want to spend your eternity in a flaming Pit then perhaps you should get a new viewpoint.
There's evidence also. It's called the New Testament, along with the Old.

Nothing Pat Robertson says should be taken seriously by anyone. Pat is away with the fairies and has been for a while now. It amazes me that even one person on earth listens in earnest to the brain rotted lunatic. Nothing Pat believes is a threat to me. As a Buddhist I find this particular comment from Robertson to be interesting.
