Haiti, Pat Robertson, and Maturity
Haiti is in trouble and you should donate if you are at all capable.
Earlier today Pat Robertson blamed the earthquake on a pact between Haiti and the devil. I'm grateful that Don Miller responded on his website:
I like the quiet authenticity of our faith. Robertson’s loudness and shock-jock verbiage seems strange and oddly uncompassionate. It felt like he was trying to tell us how tough he was, not how compassionate God is.....An appropriate response to Pat Robertson:
“You seem angry and tired. Christ loves you. He is not impressed with your religious posturing. He really loves you. You don’t have to hide behind anything anymore. The good news really is that good.”
Don went on to say that this would be the appropriate response to what happened in Haiti:
For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in..
