Shock: Christian Coalition founder Pat Robertson favors marijuana legalization

Finally even the quacks realize that the emperor is naked

Hey I say give the guy some credit for actually being open minded about a subject that doesnt allign with his usual right wing conservative views. I am impressed.

Maybe Pot, I mean Pat sat down with the Rev. Al Sharpton over an 1/8 oz. of chronic doing bong hits out of Pot's, I mean Pat's crucifix bong and had an apifiny and Al pointed out the verse in the Bible about God telling his followers to use the herbs that he put here to use. But if Pot, I mean Pat knew the real reason why we criminalized weed in the first place he would change his mind. He wouldn't be to happy to know that old black jazz musicians were using weed to corrupt our white daughters and impregnating them.
"up in smoke thats where my money goes,
in my lungs and sometimes up my nose,
when troubled times begin to bother me,
I take a toke and all my cares go up in smoke"

..an obvious truth...

Christian Coalition?!?! oh man. . .i dont like the sound of that.

More power to him, sure I don't agree with his dogmas and beliefs butwhat he is saying in this article is pretty damn wise.

Pat Robertson of all people.....I thought he was a better bible thumper than THAT. What's that poor schmuck been smoking??? Oh....nevermind.

If Pat's for it, then it must be bad.
I hereby resign from my "End Prohibition" Stance.

[Yes, I am being Sarcastic]

P.S.- For the record, this does NOT absolve Pat from all his other crazy rantings. In fact, it bolsters the fact he is crazy, because the potential fallout from his conservative base will be staggering.

wow. everyone's human.

If we was standing next to me at a pro pot rally i would still kick his ass.

so those decades and decades of 'oppression from the hands of the Christians" are suddenly forgiven by rabid christian atheists because pat advocates SMOKING DOPE??

LOL..I guess we all know the priorities here..

so can Christians oppress people again as long as they DO NOT fuck with your sex life and dope smoking??

LOL

(just an observation)

I think this is the first reasonable thing this man has said in years. If he gets pot legalized I may forgive him for his hate issues.

Hmm...

Whenever that man says something, it is always for a selfish reason.

Who are his kids? I bet he just caught one of them with some pot.

I trust nothing that comes from the mouth of Pat.

Damn closet pot smokers I wish they would find the strength to come out.

The dude must be stoned.

And why does anyone care what this guy thinks?

"The feminist agenda is not about equal rights for women. It is about a socialist, anti-family political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians." –Pat Robertson

Well a confused hallelujah.

Could this be the rapture?

no way!

How is this shocking? The bible doesn't speak against marijuana. The only reason pastors are against it is because it's illegal. And the bible says to follow the law of the land.

Can some one check, I think hell just froze over

You'd have to be high to say some of the shit he says.

This is shocking, did someone in the Robertson family get arrested for possesion?

He's probably been in the closet with pot the same way other preachers are still with their homosexuality.

Hallelujah finally a new awakening. Amen.

No signs of the world ending yet. Keep your eyes out, though.

They would reach new heights of religious experience if they passed a holy sacrament spliff down the pews. How about raising the banner of legalization now Pat.

MY MIND IS FULL OF FUCK!

Kudos to Pat Robertson for supporting legalization.

Well, when he's right, he's right! Cannabis crosses political lines and I guess religious lines also. It's time to re-think prohibition of cannabis and hemp as well. Hemp could create environmentally friendly jobs in America.

If we address the issue of cannabis prohibition, hemp will be set free for industry. The future could be brighter for industry, making environmentally friendly products from hemp. It's a win, win if they let the discussion begin.

Hail Mary Jane!

Hellelujah!!!!!

I think my mind just collapsed...

May God bless you Mr. Robertson. The Christian monks of the
middle ages, living in European countries, smoked Cannabis
Sativa, commonly. They considered it a holy sacrament because
it helped facilitate their communion with the Holy Spirit aka Peace.
My world books on the History of Cannabis in over 60 countries,
on every Continent bear these facts out.

WHAT?!?!?!
