Pat Robertson, conservative evangelist and Christian Coalition founder, dies at 93
Robertson was one of the most prominent and influential Christian broadcasters and entrepreneurs in the U.S., equal parts religious leader and culture warrior.
Pro life
Dies anyway
How embarassing
It's like he didn't even try.
and on pride month too lol
Thanks for the Pride Month gift Pat. Turns out you're an ally after all.
OMG, thanks for the laugh!
First Ronald Reagan, now another homophobe dies during pride
First Trump, then SCOTUS says Alabama can't be /that/ racist anymore, Matt Gaetz is back under investigation, and now this? Best Pride ever!
To think it happened on Pride month too
This meme came up when I was looking for recent information about him.
Gotta wonder how that conversation would really go.
Hopefully God endlessly shitting down his throat to keep him from speaking lol
One less asshole to worry about.
Rest in piss.
Can't wait to find out where his grave is so I can piss on it just like Rush Limbaugh's.
Can we conga line from Rush's to Jerry's to Pat's? Piss and dance all night long!
Good riddance to bad rubbish, as they say
What a gift we've been given in celebration of pride! 🏳️🌈
The world just got a bit less bigoted
A drink for such a happy occasion is in order this evening.
The world is a slightly better place without him in it.
One less asshole to worry about.
I have to say, I won't miss him any. Actually kind of makes me happy.
Frank Zappa wrote a song about him in the 80s
It's NINE minutes long?!? Holy shit that's amazing.
About average for a Zappa track, I think
Zappa was always spot-on. XD

Yup Yup 👍
Do svidaniya
Am I the only person that thought this was talking about Rob Patterson and was srsly confused 🤔😂
Oh noes, not that. A total jackass who was a major contributor to the rise of the christofascists. Good riddance.
@const_void Doesn't #CBN peddle the prosperity gospel and other heresies?
It is sad that he died but I'm not going to pretend that a network broadcast a fake gospel is a net positive for #Christianity.
If Jesus were real, which he isn't, and if he were alive today, which again, he never existed. I assume he would be flipping tables in every Southern Baptist Convention. Plus all the kiddy stuff.
@kamenoko As a #Christian, Jesus is alive (just in Heaven, not on Earth) and yes, He would flip tables over both, most likely.
Oh noooooo
Lol, the exodus has surely begun alright. Already this place is turning into a YouTube comment section.
I've come from reddit but am curious, has there been a noticeable change? What was it like before?
Looks at comments
So I'm guessing rule three is ignored, so long as we're selecting the right target?
Curious which rule is being broken by which type of comment?
Reveling on someone's death no matter how despicable isn't healthy in any way shape or form.
You can choose silence instead of spewing negativity.
He spent his life making it as difficult as possible to be LGBT in this country. He repeatedly spat hatred and vile remarks towards me and my community. I have no remorse in reveling in his passing.
Sir this is Pat Robertson we're talking about. Of course people who's lives have been impacted by his hate are going to be happy
Being happy is one thing, but hating on a dead person is something else. Also It's one thing to say "I'm glad his negativity isn't around" versus cussing him out and saying cynical negative things. There's a balance here.
This is my opinion and my experience that hating on the dead isn't a good feeling for the one saying it and others reading it. These people claim to be morally better? Come on
You can also choose silence instead of spewing self-righteousness.
@stanleytweedle @rationalistfaith But you can't?
I am not so sure that its unhealthy. the man was a bigot hiding behind religion - something that countless bigots have done for thousands of years. a little shadenfreude can be quite healthy.
As a Muslim we're not allowed to hate on the dead https://hadeethenc.com/en/browse/hadith/5364
I thought that was shared with other backgrounds. Clearly not.
This is the exact opposite of what to do when someone who has hurt so many dies.
