Pat Robertson: Marriage Equality in Maine – The end of the world as we know it?

Responding to news last week that Maine’s Governor John Baldacci had signed a Marriage Equality law, Televangelist Pat Robertson, said… “We haven’t taken this to its ultimate conclusion. You got polygamy out there. How can we rule that polygamy is illegal when you say that homosexual marriage is legal? What is it about polygamy that’s different? Well, polygamy was outlawed because it was considered immoral according to biblical standards. But if we take biblical standards away in homosexuality, what about the other? And what about bestiality and ultimately what about child molestation and pedophilia? How can we criminalize these things and at the same time have constitutional amendments allowing same-sex marriage among homosexuals. You mark my words, this is just the beginning in a long downward slide in relation to all the things that we consider to be abhorrent.”

Robertson has also predicted that the end of the world was coming in November or October 1982, that storms or possibly a tsunami would hit America’s coastline destroying millions of lives sometime in 2006 and that “mass killings” were to come during 2007, as a result of a terrorist nuclear attack on the United States.
