I agree with Pat 100%. Antisemitism is nothing but a desperate attempt to make the evidence that there is a G-d go away.
Actually, I think only about 25% of antisemitism is nothing but that. The rest is due to conspiracy theories, religious hatred, and jealousy.

It sounds patronizing but I don't think it's antisemitism.

Leftist Propoganda.  Its amazing how the left fixate on a sentence taken out of context and completely ignore those who call for the extermination of all Jews on a daily basis.

Let him flap his gums, who cares if he thinks we're not cosmic.  I believe in the Silver Surfer, I'm cosmic!

I think Pat Robertson just disagrees with Jews about Jesus.  I don't think he supports killing Jews just because he disagrees with them.

Pat Robertson probably supports the freedom of speech of people to express their disagreements with each other, even about Jesus.

I agree with what he says except for jesus. Rashi- one of the Jewish commentators says the same exact thing. I believe the Rambam (Maimonides) as well.

Pat Robertson has never been anti-Semitic. He has said some bizarre things in the last several years though which leave a lot of people scratching their heads.

I don't think it was anti-semitic.  Patronizing, maybe.  After all, he was speaking out against anti-semitism.

We "poor Jews" need him to teach us about anti-semitism and what it's purpose is?   Without Pat Robertson we don't understand?

Quite frankly, I don't think he cares about Jews and our homeland, per se.  He has his own agenda.

He should have left out the part about us not allegedly understanding things cosmic.  That said its a free country and he can say and think whatever he wants.

Pat Robertson is not Anti Semitic .It' sounds strange Jews unlike others don't try to convert people so everything most evangelicals say at times appears triumphalist but it's not
