Once again, Pat Robertson has said something ridiculously offensive and cruel.

Past targets have included gays, feminists and pagans, atheists, people with Alzheimer's, adoptive parents, Haitians and people who don't pray enough. This time, the televangelist focused his ire on wives who fail to properly obey their husbands.

On Monday's broadcast of Robertson's television show "The 700 Club," he answered a question from a viewer named Michael about how to repair his marriage to a woman who "has no respect for me as the head of the house."

Robertson's response: "Well, you could become a Muslim and you could beat her."

Bizarrely, this comment elicited laughter from Robertson's co-host, Terry Meeuwsen.

Unfortunately, Robertson didn't stop there.

"I don’t think we condone wife-beating these days but something has got to be done to make her."

Beat Wife

He also called the woman a "rebellious child" who doesn't want to "submit to any authority." However, since the Scripture doesn't allow for divorce, Robertson urged the husband to "move to Saudi Arabia," where, ostensibly, beating the woman would be permissible.

This man needs to go to sleep and never wake up.

That's right, I said it.

Dear God,
If you are real, if you are all knowing and powerful.... please... take Pat Roberson NOW.
Smite where he stands or smite when he speaks or smite him when he takes a breath, but Jesus Christ... smite him immediately.
But damn God, prove your power!

Seriously, though, this is appalling. I have some reading homework for Pat:

Muslims are the youngest religion and the most problematic one.
You must accept them otherwise there will be trouble.
They will not lift a finger towards accepting you in any way. It's a completely one sided religion. World conquer and domination is in their twisted minds.

some things you should not joke about

a pastor in a church joked and said God would kill the Gays back in Moses time for being gay and rewarded those who killed them we should be more like moses

so 2 members from his church fire bombed a LGBT Center and killed 2 women who were lesbian and killed a man who they thought was a homosexual who worked as as bouncer at gay night club

Pat is a crazy old man that has lost his sense of reason a long , long time ago. Why the disney people even air his nonsense is beyond me . He is nothing but a huckster selling Jesus for his own benefit . Just like so many other tele-evangelists . They are all criminals preying on the weak and weak minded .

Members of a Christian sect in New Jerusalem, a small town in central Mexico, burned down the only public school building in town last month. Now that the beginning of the school calendar has passed, teachers attempted to hold classes in private homes, only to be pelted by stones. They say the Virgin of the Rosary told them schools were built by the devil.

I'd donate to the effort to quarantine him to Saudi Arabia, but the last thing we need is to have a corner of the earth infected with colonies of people like him. Perhaps strapping him to one of the walls of a ship and blasting holes in the ship's hull would be more fitting?
