Pat Robertson: Haiti Quake Result of "Pact to the Devil"
In the wake of any disaster, the last thing we need is for some opportunist piece of shit to claim it was a deliberate act of God and he did it to punish the victims. Officials are estimating that the Haiti earthquake may have killed more than 100,000 people. The U.S. and nations around the world are pledging their unqualified support. Enter Pat Robertson (l.), who's saying the quake was God's punishment for the republic's "pact to the devil". On his weekly TV show, Robertson explained that the Haitians "were under the heel of the French. You know, Napoleon III and whatever. And they got together and swore a pact to the devil. They said, 'We will serve you if you will get us free from the French.' True story. And so, the devil said, 'OK, it's a deal.'"
Rapist Sharia Cops Won't Face Islamic Law
In Jarkata, the three Sharia cops suspected of gang raping a female suspect will not be charged under Islamic "Law", but under the Criminal Code, which means a more lenient penalty if found guilty. If convicted for rape under the Criminal Code, the cops could receive a maximum of 12 years. If convicted under the Islamic "Law" they supposedly enforce, they could have received 100 to 200 lashes or a maximum prison sentence of of 200 months. This is absolute bullshit!
Men Receive Lashes for un-Islamic Romances
In Somalia, two men were publicly flogged by religious police for engaging in un-Islamic behavior. The men confessed to flirting and having a secret marriage, respectively, and received 15 and 39 lashes each in front of a large crowd of onlookers. “The punishment was only to show that people will be held responsible for violating Sharia,” proclaimed a senior official. “We are here to correct deviant social behaviour and force the people to implement Sharia to the full.”
Canadian Priest Charged with Rape
In Canada, a 79-year-old priest has been charged for sex offenses dating back more than 40 years. Meurig Pari Lloyd was arrested after a woman recently contacted police on allegations that the priest abused her when she was between the ages of 8 and 15, beginning in 1967. Lloyd was charged with two counts of rape, gross indecency, having intercourse with a female under 14, and one count of indecent assault.
Families Suing Diocese Over Handling of Sex Abuse Claims
In Australia, six families are suing a Catholic diocese over its handling of sex abuse allegations at a local school. The former principal was found not guilty of failing t report the allegations.
And Finally...Surprise, surprise! Sarah Palin Talks about God!I guess if you want to get a job over at FOX News, you need to constantly profess your Christian faith. In one short week, the right-wing network had Brit Hume, their "senior political analyst", proselytizing to Tiger Woods and then they announce they're hiring fellow Jesus slave, Sarah Palin to help them further pollute the mind of middle America. Considering Palin's limited knowledge of, well, everything, it only makes sense that she crows about one of the few topics she can speak quasi-coherently on: God. In an interview with Glenn Beck (ugh, another one), Palin proclaimed "There is nothing more important in my life than my relationship with God and my faith and in this past year especially -- past year and a half -- I have been so driven to my knees to pray for His guidance, for His wisdom, for His grace and for His Strength."
Seriously, is there some crazy scheme going on to turn FOX News into a 24-hour version of the 700 Club? What the fuck is going on!?
