Focusing on Candidate Pat Robertson
Robertson wants to underplay his role as a TV evangelist. He now claims being a businessman who has built a large corporation. What was his product? He capitalized on the name of Jesus. No doubt--he’s made more money selling Jesus than Jesus himself did.
It seems like being a man of the cloth was not his highest calling. It was a means of raising funds to invest in his higher aspiration to be President.
There’s something morally disconcerting about this.
