Virginia Beach, Virginia—Religious broadcaster Pat
Robertson has dropped to his knees praying for God to remove three justices
from the Supreme Court so they could be replaced by conservatives.
The conservative Christian leader is urging his followers to pray with him.
“We ask for miracles in regard to the Supreme Court,” Robertson said
today on his Christian Broadcasting Network program “The 700 Club.”
Robertson said the Supreme Court has lost touch with the reality of America
in light of its decision overturning the Texas Sodomy law. The Court “has
opened the door to homosexual marriage, bigamy, legalized prostitution and
even incest,” he said.
He told viewers that he is launching a 21-day “prayer offensive”
directed at the Supreme Court.
Robertson is targeting three justices in particular, but did not name them.
He referred to them only by saying: “One justice is 83-years-old, another
has cancer and another has a heart condition. Would it not be possible for God
to put it in the minds of these three judges that the time has come to
retire?”
Justice John Paul Stevens, who was born in 1920, is 83. Justice Ruth Bader
Ginsburg had colon cancer surgery in 1999. The identity of the third justice
is unclear.
