I think your theory is baseless nonsense.

Here is the story:

What? Pat Robertson predicts gays will go extinct ‘because they don’t reproduce’

Your thoughts???
My thoughts? He's an idiot. Homosexuality isn't hereditary. If it was, it logically would not exist. They'd already be extinct if reproduction was a factor. In fact, they wouldn't even exist at all. If it had to be transferred through reproduction, the first homosexual would probably be the last. The mutation would be so uncommon that the concept of homosexuality wouldn't even exist.

But that's not how it works. So, my thoughts are he's an idiot. And sadly, idiots are allowed to give their opinions. Then bigger idiots believe them. The circle of life.

A Homosexual, by definition in the Bible, isn't saved.

So Pat Robertson whom I suspect would say the Bible is his authority, has stated exactly what the Bibles outcome is for homosexuals

They will be extinct.

Except he's put a bizarre twist on it which is not based in scripture

Also let me clarify that the Bible teaches a Christian is saved via being Covered through

Christs blood on the Cross so this person, who by definition of doing homosexual acts is a homosexual, is NO longer a homosexual

They are not viewed as a Sinner but a Saint. Just as other sins are covered through his blood, this one could be too.

But it's not something to bank on,, keep sinning freely. I am just saying it is possible.

Man, I wish all you religious nuts would rapture up into the clouds already, and leave the rest of us here in peace. And please, be sure to take Pat with you.

Of course.

You just show up at Gay Recruiting Office.

Once you see the fabulous uniforms, you'll want to join the Rainbow Army that instant!

As a non-Christian, this opinion is meaningless to me.

It doesn't matter whether you are Christian or not, I'd think you'd want to understand his stance.

And this is not an opinion, its what the bible teaches. Whether you are a Christian or not, makes no difference

Ehh...

There is fact to what you say. It is in the Bible. No one argues that. The opinion part comes from it's relevancy. Some think the Bible is the most truthful document ever; others do not. So, it is an opinion. The only fact is that it's written down, but what is written down is not necessarily fact.

We understand Pat perfectly. He's been saying hateful, ridiculous, asinine things about gays for years:

"You know what they do in San Francisco, some in the gay community there they want to get people so if they got the stuff they’ll have a ring, you shake hands, and the ring’s got a little thing where you cut your finger. Really. It’s that kind of vicious stuff, which would be the equivalent of murder.”

“I would warn Orlando that you’re right in the way of some serious hurricanes, and I don’t think I’d be waving those [rainbow] flags in God’s face if I were you.”

"[Gay people say] we're not only going to go into the schools and we're going to take your children and your grandchildren and turn them into homosexuals." Now that's wrong."

"The widespread practice of homosexuality will bring about the destruction of your nation, if it will bring about terrorist bombs, if it'll bring about earthquakes, tornadoes and possibly a meteor, it isn't necessarily something we ought to open our arms to."


http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0149408/quotes

And that's just a small sample. There are many, many more.

Yeah, I think we all are very clear on what Pat's stance is. He is a very clear indication of why I left Christianity behind me years ago.
