people that worship pat robertson are lost. and worse. And yes nature has nothing to do with the Abrahamic god
A tyrant must put on the appearance of uncommon devotion to religion. Subjects are less apprehensive of illegal treatment from a ruler whom they consider god-fearing and pious. On the other hand, they do less easily move against him, believing that he has the gods on his side. Aristotle

Hi Maine! Agree with you 100 percent.
“Faith is deciding to allow yourself to believe something your intellect would otherwise cause you to reject.”

I do not think that people "worship" Pat Robertson. There are people who agree with Pat Robertson says. There are people who respect Pat Robertson. But I think it is a more than a little bit of hyberbole to say that people "worship" Pat Roberston.

Hyperbole? Oh, no, no, no. What does worship really mean? It means to regard with ardent or adoring esteem or devotion. How do you do this 50%? Either you do or you don't.
