Sometimes when Christians like Robertson say something I cringe because they are the public face of Christianity. Others think we support what they say and are in agreement because we are Christians too. Robertson was the reason I became a blogger, I was tried of people thinking he spoke for me. And now I can say publicly what I’ve only been able to say privately, what the heck is wrong with this guy?

Evangelical broadcaster Pat Robertson said Tuesday that God has told him that a terrorist attack on the United States would cause a “mass killing” late in 2007.
[…]
“The Lord didn’t say nuclear. But I do believe it will be something like that.”
Robertson said God told him about the impending tragedy during a recent prayer retreat.
God also said, he claims, that major cities and possibly millions of people will be affected by the attack, which should take place sometime after September.

His track record for predictions isn’t 100% which should be problematic for something who claims that God was speaking to them:

In 2005, Robertson predicted that Bush would have victory after victory in his second term. He said Social Security reform proposals would be approved and Bush would nominate conservative judges to federal courts.
[…]
“I have a relatively good track record,” he said. “Sometimes I miss.”
In May, Robertson said God told him that storms and possibly a tsunami were to crash into America’s coastline in 2006.
Even though the U.S. was not hit with a tsunami, Robertson on Tuesday cited last spring’s heavy rains and flooding in New England as partly fulfilling the prediction.

If God is telling these things to Pat Robertson, why is it Robertson’s track record? God is the one predicting and it appears that his track record is off, I would think that God Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, whos knows the beginning and the end of history would know that we would not have a tsunami (and no, heavy rains and flooding in New England is not a tsunami) or that Bush would not be able to get Social Society reform through Congress.

Maybe Robertson might want to heed the words of the Bible:

Deuteronomy 18:20-22 “But the prophet who presumes to speak a word in my name that I have not commanded him to speak, or [6] who speaks in the name of other gods, that same prophet shall die.’ 21 And if you say in your heart, ‘How may we know the word that the Lord has not spoken?’- 22 when a prophet speaks in the name of the Lord, if the word does not come to pass or come true, that is a word that the Lord has not spoken; the prophet has spoken it presumptuously. You need not be afraid of him.”
