Ted, What I saw him doing was pointing out the absurdity of Robertson's claim.......which you seem to want to ignore.

It's a non-issue, but since you keep wanting to bring it up ...

Pat Robertson's claim might or might not be true. To me, the issue is, "So what?" If Bush wins or not, what's the big deal? Either way, we'll still have the same old bureaucracy and partisanship in Washington.

Most people can decide for themselves whether to follow Pat Robertson or not ... just like most people can decide for themselves whether to follow Nicolas de Genova's call for a "million Mogadishus," or whether to believe the Malaysian PM when he says "Jews rule the world by proxy."

I think where there's an analogy is in the fanaticism of the two men. I think if Jesus were here he'd tell Gibson to lighten up ...

Mel's movie is a strict interpretation of the Four Gospels which have been passed down over two millenia. I don't know how you can "lighten up" on that profound message.

Of course, I don't know that for sure since neither God nor Jesus talk to me. However, their angels do.......but then they tend to be a little cryptic and not very verbose.......and certainly, never try to call an election nor my chances at blackjack. Then again, they are not God.

There's a separate lesson to be learned here ... but I'll save it for another time.
