The only thing that\u2019s surprising about this clip is that it took so long for Pat Robertson to weigh in on the tragic death of Robin Williams.<\/p>\n
(At least I assume this is recent because I haven\u2019t seen it before today.)<\/p>\n
He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named infamously claimed that Robin Williams died because he chose not to be joyful.<\/p>\n
So what\u2019s Robertson\u2019s take on the situation?<\/p>\n
Robin Williams died because he wasn\u2019t a Christian. <\/em><\/p>\n Had Williams been a Christian, Robertson says, he wouldn\u2019t have worshipped \u201cthe god of the heathens\u201d \u2013 in this case fame and wealth. In other words, according to Pat Robertson, Christians don\u2019t get depressed and they certainly don\u2019t commit suicide.<\/p>\n Is there like an island or, even better, another planet that we could send Pat Robertson and He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named to so we never have to listen to their opinions on anything ever again?<\/p>\n No?<\/p>\n Oh well, a boy can dream.<\/p>\n\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The only thing that\u2019s surprising about this clip is that it took so long for Pat Robertson to weigh in on the tragic death of Robin Williams.
