Robertson's Haiti comment proves religious extremism

We already knew that evangelist Pat Robertson hates Muslims, Jews, Catholics, liberals and Democrats ("Earthquake-rocked Haiti 'cursed' by a pact with devil: Pat Robertson ," Faith & Reason, USATODAY.com, Wednesday).

It now seems that even victims of a catastrophic earthquake are not exempt from his wrath. In his declaration that Haitians made a "pact to the devil," Robertson has succeeded only in proving the existence of religious extremism in America, and nothing else.

I can't think of a way to not be hated by Robertson, which is actually a good thing. I would sooner join the camp of those Robertson hates, than be mistaken as his friend. Robertson may not realize it, but he seems to have a lot in common with his nemesis the devil. They both hate everyone but themselves.
