He's the new Jean Dixon with just about the same accuracy.
So what happens when his "message from God" is a miss? Did God make a mistake or was Pat just not listening closely enough? I would imagine that God knows the difference between a tsunami and heavy rains, but maybe I'm wrong.
This really saddens me. I used to have respect for Robertson and voted for him in the '88 primary. What is wrong with him ? If he had followed it up with asking people to pray for God's protection for this country that would be fine but what is the point of this ? The man needs to do a serious study on wisdom.
I guess Pat doesn't believe the parts of the Bible that talk about false prophets. <_<
What cracks me up even more than his false prophecies is the fact that, as TWIts, we laughed at him and how stupid the people were who believed him. I'll bet there are folks in the CESpool who do the same thing.

No miss. He received his cash quata and all the prayers needed for gawd to halt the attack. Simple as that.
"I have a relatively good track record," he said. "Sometimes I miss."
On his site he's got a beery letter of condolence posted to the victims of a plane crash in Connecticut, a plane owned by one his "corporations". He definitely missed that one.
He doesn't give predictions or prophecies as much as he gives "judgments". None of his so-called prophecys are specific relating to any date, time or place that would allow for anyone to save themselves. He doesn't even bother to preach a brimstone filled sermon on what the soon-to-be devestated might do for his god to avoid such wrathful events.
All he really does is announce judgments, from "god", for whatever it is he says is wrong. So he's really more of God's Judgment Announcer of Wrath That May or May Not Happen Pretty Soon or Sometime After That.
He's so despicable there aren't words. He pinches out things like "If I'm hearing the Lord right"...... I can't see how anyone can watch his Alfred E. Newman bobble-headed act on TV and not barf let alone send his asinine company money.
I recall on my interim year, the government or the the world was somehow coming to n end. From TWI . Importently enough to get ready for doom or gloom,PREPARE. I was a WOW, I bought a Jansport D-3 backpack and a fifty pound of millet for my WOW brethen to survive. I recall back in 1972 by Jimmy Swaggert that all of the planets would line up in such a manner and the Lord would return. WHATEVER! Aint noone knows the times or the seasons. We just need to wait! We will hear all kinds of things I reckon. Who is the next contestant as the song goes?
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.[/font][/color][/size]
It's almost enough to make me believe in deities. It's almost as if god would have redirected all the storms and earthquakes to other parts of the world to make sure Robertson's predictions were completely wrong. I mean, it seemed like a safe bet that at least some strong storms would hit the U.S. after 2005, but the strong winds kept all the storms to the Atlantic last year. He probably got some new converts from Bermuda, but I hope that his "predictions from God" are used against him in the future. He has no credibility.

O No! How much money do we have to send to Pat to keep us safe?
Major cities? which ones? at CES they can tell whose nose the spider is crawling out of, he should buy their book
Did he also predict that there will be snow in the Northeast?
Baseball in the spring?
A high profile celebrity who will meet disgrace?
A politician who will be investigated for fraud?
A new war between two countries?
that he will be put on psychiatric medication and taken off the air?

I don't think he predicted the last one mstar... it was refreshing to hear a guy on the local news this morning say the same things you did.

Did he predict this after leg pressing 2,000 lbs, or before...?

The A.P story adds this quote of P's -
"I have a relatively good track record," he said. "Sometimes I miss."
On his site he's got a beery letter of condolence posted to the victims of a plane crash in Connecticut, a plane owned by one his "corporations". He definitely missed that one.

Methinks I see the Problem
Dear Pat

GOD has a real good track record," he said. "He never misses."
I mean what do you have to lose , other than an Over inflated Ego

I heard Pat uses several Magic 8 Balls so if he gets an answer like this one he’ll just refer to another:
