Well, at least he's moved off of the notion that Hurricane Katrina was caused by Southern Decadence (gay festival in New Orleans scheduled for right around the time the hurricane hit).
I try to be a good Buddhist about the likes of Pat Robertson. I try to look at him as a sign post. Granted, I tend to think he's a sign post for stupidity... hence, why I am trying to be good. =)
He reminds me every time I see him to avoid the evils of judgment. He reminds me to share knowledge with anyone who wants to listen, to build community wherever I may, and to make sure I speak with compassion in my heart rather than ignorance.
And, then there are days when I can't be such a good Buddhist and simply wish a house would fall on him.
We cannot all think and believe the same way. I suspect for Mr. Robertson this is the stuff of which his nightmares are made.
