Yes, he made what could be considered one of the dumbest, most poorly timed statements yet. But those are just words, honestly. What is Pat Robertson doing about Haiti's recent disaster:



"Dr. Robertson’s compassion for the people of Haiti is clear. He called for prayer for them. His humanitarian arm has been working to help thousands of people in Haiti over the last year, and they are currently launching a major relief and recovery effort to help the victims of this disaster.

My blog on the ridiculously unimaginable scales of things, and how ridiculous it is to believe our tiny gods had anything to do with anything much less creating it all.

Just found this. I'm excited to be here and look forward to reading posts. I hope I can make some useful contributions as well. Thanks for existing, Atheist Nexus!

My atheist blog is www.secondskeleton.com and I run www.facesforfilms.com for the local film community.

See you out there.
