Time To Rethink Your Religious Leader?

Now, I am probably the last one to take a stab at ones religious beliefs. But, did anyone else catch the story about Pat Robertson telling his 700 Club viewers that he thinks the US should kill Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez. (I know what the fuck is he thinking.) Hello, 700 Club members, I think it may be time to look for greener pastures. I heard the Branch Davidians are starting up a new chapter. Pat has clearly gone over the deep end. Now I am sure that Senor Chavez is a huge bad ass and probably deserves what coming to him. But when your supposedly Christian leader starts calling for the deaths of other people in the name of the common good, you may want to rethink the path you're walking down. What's next, the Archbishop of New York entering into a murder for hire contract against a child molester?

Thou shalt not kill? C'mon, that's one of those middle commandments. It's got be hard to remember all ten of them at the same time. Maybe he was thinking of, Thou shalt not give the dog chocolate, or Thou shalt not have tacos before bed, or Thou shalt not be batshit insane on the 700 club. Wait. Maybe he forgot that one too.

What makes one a "Religious Leader"? An internet course on religion?
